Michael Kyle is a man on a tragically funny quest for the perfect "traditional" family while his wife searches for her own path in life.

After the children tease him about getting old, Michael pretends to injure his back playing Twister so they will have to cater to his every whim.

An encounter with Michael's ex-girlfriend prompts Janet to get a makeover; on a dare, Junior tries to steal a bra from the girls' locker room.

Michael bowls against his archenemy Stu Tyler (Larry Miller); Trekkies at the bowling alley believe Claire is a Romulan queen.

After getting his driver's license, Jr. buys a clunker instead of the practical car Michael picked out for him.
