Without her lasagna business to keep her preoccupied, Katie feels like her life is once again off course. As she searches for purpose, she redirects her energy toward Greg and the kids becoming overbearing and controlling. Franklin challenges an older boy to a duel in an effort to win back Anna-Kat's affections.
Katie is taken aback when she learns Taylor's boyfriend Trip has been spending the night. Greg is forced to separate the kids when Anna-Kat and Franklin both come down with mono. And when Oliver starts spending too much time at the office, Cooper begins to feel neglected.
With Anna-Kat and Franklin home with mono, Katie seizes the opportunity to use them as the backdrop for her mommy vlog. And when Taylor's first college paper comes back with an A, Greg questions her TA's intentions. Meanwhile, Cooper helps Oliver renovate the basement.
Katie pushes Anna-Kat and Franklin to take a risk and try an activity outside their comfort zone in order to create new content for her mommy vlog. Meanwhile, Oliver is convinced taking performance-enhancing drugs will help him ace his SATs. And after bonding with her TA over an art exhibit, Taylor begins to wonder if Trip is the right guy for her.
