When Dave Johnson and his family arrive from Michigan, they're unfazed that their new dream home is located in a community quite different from their previous small town. However, their opinionated next-door neighbor Calvin Butler is wary of the newcomers, certain that they'll disrupt the culture on the block. Dave realizes that fitting in with the new community is more complex than he had expected, but if he can find a way to connect with Calvin, there's an excellent chance of making the new neighborhood a great place to live.

Gemma holds a fundraiser for a new school pool; Tina and the other teachers are being overworked; Dave convinces Calvin to finally commit to doing physical therapy for his knee.

Calvin pushes Marty to move up the opening of their new business to get a valuable celebrity endorsement from D.L. Hughley; Dave continues to struggle with the return of his father; Tina and Gemma prepare for the opening of their new school play.

As Dave nears his 40th birthday, Calvin offers to coach his friend for an amateur boxing tournament; sparks fly when Marty meets a new woman at the gym.

The Butlers and Johnsons are rattled in different ways after an earthquake strikes; Dave goes to extremes trying to prepare his family for the next earthquake.
