While talking to Robinson about his upcoming school dance, Holly realizes RJ missed out on this quintessential social milestone and she sets out to give him the experience he deserves. After RJ shares his fear of rejection, Holly calls on his mentors to give him advice on asking a girl to dance. On the big night of the dance, Holly comes on too strong trying to encourage RJ to socialize, causing him to completely shut down.
As Holly finishes up her work on the film set in Vancouver, Rodney continues to parent solo. Being the stricter parent, he puts the boys to work doing chores, and uses this as incentive when Robinson asks to re-decorate his room. If Robinson works hard around the house, he can earn a new bed and furniture he is wanting. However, when Holly gets home, she has her own ideas when it comes to Robinson’s requests, and she and Rodney and don’t see eye to eye.
