The episode opens with Crosby and Jasmine in bed together while Jabbar is knocking vigorously on the door. He’s calling out to his mommy for some reason that we don’t know.

Crosby jumps out the bedroom window to be on his way. As you can guess there are some old ladies walking down the street which see him and give him a dirty look.

Julia and her daughter Sydney are having some issues of their own. Sydney is on the loser team in the soccer league. The coach has just quit three days before the league season is about to begin. So Julia volunteers to coach.

Neither her husband nor her daughter are excited about this because of how competitive she is.

Things are also progressing with Hattie and her boyfriend Steve. Steve believes their on the path to having sex and she is not so sure. He invites her out to the golf course for a picnic but things do not go as planned.

Later they are talking in his car and Hattie breaks up with him because she’s just not feeling it.

The pressure he was putting on her and his inability to live in the moment doomed him.

Meanwhile Max is attempting to make some friends. He first goes over to some boy’s house and doesn’t like him so he fakes an illness to get out there. So his dad invites one of his work friends and their family over for dinner. But their are boy fakes an illness because Max is weird talking about his bugs.

Amber is a getting a job serving coffee at the golf course. Steve comes in heartbroken so Amber goes over to talk with him a little bit. They become closer as the episode progresses.

There’s this old person dance that’s going down where Steve comes by just to see Amber. You can see where this is headed and you know there’s going to be a confrontation between Hattie and Amber.

It’s really too bad because these two cousins have gotten pretty close.

But you just know this guy is going to come between them even though Hattie broke up with him.

And finally toward the ends the tough confrontation had to happen. Sarah discovers that her dad Zeke has sold his cufflinks to a pawn shop. She also finds out he has sold a lot of his other personal belongings to the pawnshop as well. So now all the kids know.

They decide to schedule a dinner over at mom and dad’s house so that they can tell mom.

The truth comes out and the mom is obviously extremely disappointed. But it’s not for the reason we think. She has a private conversation with Sarah and tells her they had financial problems before. She really doesn’t care about that she does care about the lies.

She reveals to Sarah that Zeke had cheated on her with a woman up north.

As the episode closes Zeke is on his oldest son Adam’s doorstep with a bag of clothes in his hand. We know that he’s been kicked out of the house and we’ll see where things progress.
