Pam has suffered from insomnia for the last few years and it really affects her everyday life. However, Pam's husband Jim claims that Pam is exaggerating and that she sleeps every night and often even snores! To prove he's right (and to help his wife), Jim asks Pam to go to a sleep clinic to test her insomnia. Jim, on the other hand, is a sleeper who routinely gets at least nine hours of sleep at night.
