Everybody Loves Raymond

Robert and Ray ditch Marie’s latest project to sneak off and play a round of golf. Their day on the course quickly turns hostile as they argue and come to blows over their family responsibilities and obligations to their parents.

Golf for It is a programme presented in an episode format. It falls under the broader genre of episodic television, offering a self‑contained story that centres on a small group of characters and their interactions. In this particular episode, two of the main characters, Robert and Ray, decide to abandon their duties and slip away to play a round of golf. They do so instead of lending a hand to Marie, who is busy with her latest project, opting for a leisurely escape rather than contributing to her work. While on the course, the pair’s light‑hearted outing quickly turns tense. Their conversation drifts toward the obligations they each feel toward their parents, and differing views on those responsibilities begin to surface. The disagreement over familial duties starts to dominate their dialogue, shifting the mood from casual sport to serious debate. The clash escalates further, culminating in a physical altercation between Robert and Ray. Their fight underscores how the simple act of shirking a task can spiral into a broader conflict about loyalty, responsibility and the expectations placed on them by their families.
