Jesse is back home from the tour that he and the Rippers went on over the summer, and an ultrasound shows that Becky is carrying twins. While this thrills Becky, the same can't be said for Jesse, who feels afraid of what is now a double responsibility that awaits him, because he doesn't want to mess up in any way as a father. The family helps Jesse come to grips with this fear, and Jesse is happy about Becky carrying twins, and they have told Dr. Sinclair that they want to wait until birth to know what gender the babies are. Meanwhile, as the new school year starts, Stephanie is nervous about entering 4th grade, until she meets her new teacher, Mr. Lowry, whom she now has a crush on. Michelle is worried about what kindergarten will be like, until she befriends Teddy, one of her new classmates.

After a talk with Teddy, Michelle realizes that she doesn't know how it feels to have a mother, so in order to have a mother, Michelle tries to find a woman for Danny, and Michelle believes that her teacher, Miss Wiltrout, is exactly the one she's looking for. Meanwhile, when a record company tells Jesse that Jesse and the Rippers' image is too soft, Jesse and Joey work together to try to come up with a tougher image for the band, and D.J. is writing an essay for school, and it's titled "What it's like to be someone else". For this essay, D.J. temporarily switches places with Kimmy.

D.J. is absolutely fed up with Stephanie. Therefore, D.J. petitions the guys to let her have her own bedroom -- something she hasn't had in 4 years. The guys talk it over, and they decide to let D.J. have her own bedroom. D.J. feels relieved, after four years of sharing a bedroom with Stephanie. The new arrangement is that D.J. and Michelle will switch rooms, and as a result, Michelle will be Stephanie's new roommate, while D.J. takes over Michelle's old bedroom. Problem is, Michelle doesn't want to be Stephanie's roommate either, making Stephanie believe that no one wants to live with her. For D.J., this puts the prospect of having her own room in jeopardy, until she helps Stephanie accept the change, and they help Michelle accept the fact that she'll be Stephanie's new roommate. Meanwhile, Becky's Lamaze instructor, Lisa Green, holds a Lamaze class in the living room with Jesse and Becky and some of their friends.

Todd Mitchell, one of high school freshman D.J.'s schoolmates, is spreading a false rumor around school that D.J. is the worst kisser. It's Todd's way of getting even with D.J. for refusing to let Todd kiss her on the way home from the library. D.J. shows Kimmy a sympathy card that D.J. got from Kathy Santoni, who, on the card, refers to the situation as a "mega crisis". Later, under the guise of collecting dirty clothes to take downstairs to the laundry room, Danny goes upstairs to D.J.'s bedroom while she's not there and finds the card. The term "mega crisis" arouses Danny's curiosity, and he wants to know what D.J.'s mega crisis is. Later, at a bowling alley, Danny is spending some time with D.J. when Kimmy shows up and takes D.J. to the mall, where Todd Mitchell is continuing to spread the rumor. At home, Danny slips up and mentions "mega crisis", indicating to D.J. that Danny has seen the card.

A record company tells Jesse that if he can write a song that can be a hit, Jesse and the Rippers will be signed. When the family prepares to go to Lake Pollock for a big family reunion, Jesse, who is frustrated by his lack of song ideas, says in an angry way that he can't go to Lake Pollock with the family. Later, in a diner, an Elvis Presley impersonator helps Jesse realize that he was wrong to lose his temper and snap at the family, and that his obsession with writing a hit song for the record company has made him forget how important his family is to him.

Joey feels like his life is going nowhere. He doesn't want to read a bad review of his last performance, and he doesn't have to, because the newspaper's employees are on strike, then the KFLX radio station calls and asks Jesse a cartoon trivia question that Jesse can't answer, but Joey answers it correctly, winning tickets to the Donny and Marie reunion, then Linda, an attractive technician from Hilltop Cable Company, comes over and puts a booster on the cable out back, then comes inside and works on the TV. Now channels such as the Truck and Tractor Pull network are available. Before leaving, Linda agrees to go to the Donny and Marie reunion with Joey. Jesse and Joey then sit down to watch "Wake Up, San Francisco". The first guest is local children's TV show legend Ranger Roy, who is Joey's childhood idol. Roy announces that after 30 years of hosting his show, he is retiring, but before he does, a new "ranger" will be chosen.

After school is dismissed for the day, D.J. goes to the Golden Gate Nursing Home to visit 75 year old Eddie Johnson, her "adopted grandparent" in the Adopt-A-Grandparent program. At home, Stephanie and Kimmy have a disagreement -- Kimmy seems to think her dog Coco is smarter than Comet, so they agree to invite all the dogs that live in their neighborhood into the Tanner family backyard for a little dog show in order to settle this. D.J. has promised to be the judge, so at the end of her visit with Eddie, D.J. tells Eddie about the dog show. Eddie wants to see the show, so he sneaks out of the nursing home and goes with D.J. to the house. At home, D.J. notices Eddie acting strange, like he doesn't know who D.J. is.

Stephanie's dance teacher has told Stephanie that Stephanie has the potential to become a professional dancer. It would be a dream come true for Stephanie, but it means taking special classes before and after school and on weekends, an earlier bedtime, and less TV. Stephanie convinces Danny to let her have a shot at it. As a result, Stephanie no longer has enough free time to spend with friends and family, and she has a dance recital coming up, and Danny is more excited about it than Stephanie is. On the night of the recital, Danny tells Stephanie that if the director of the Bayview Dance Academy, who is in the audience, likes Stephanie's performance, Stephanie can get into Bayview's summer dance camp. Minutes later, the recital begins, and Stephanie messes it up on purpose. Stephanie then tells Danny that she wants things to go back to the way they were, when she had the time to spend with friends and family

It's Michelle's 5th birthday. Michelle is afraid she's about to lose her status as "the baby of the family", because Becky is pregnant. Michelle thinks this status is what makes her special. As a result, even though she can't stop it, Michelle doesn't want to be 5 years old. As the family convinces Michelle that she's special to them no matter what, Jesse is having what he thinks are sympathy pains.

Michelle's birthday party has just started when Becky announces that she's going into labor. The twins are coming, and she needs to get to the hospital, fast. When Jesse leaves to take Becky to the hospital, the others stay behind to speed up Michelle's birthday party so they can get to the hospital to be there when the twins are born. At the hospital, Jesse's "sympathy" pains turn out to be appendicitis. As Jesse undergoes an emergency appendectomy, Danny is the one who is at Becky's side for the time being. After the surgery, Jesse is placed in the maternity room that Becky is in, and even though he went through an operation, Jesse is still at Becky's side when Becky gives birth to twin boys. Nicholas "Nicky" Katsopolis is named after Jesse's father, and Alexander "Alex" Katsopolis is named after the teacher who inspired Becky to go into journalism.

Becky and the twins come home from the hospital, and Becky's doctor has mentioned that it's common for new mothers to have mood swings. Nicky and Alex are still wearing their hospital bracelets. Michelle feels left out when D.J. and Stephanie are allowed to hold the twins and Michelle is not allowed to. Becky wants to take a picture of Nicky and Alex for her mother Nedra, but Becky wants Nicky and Alex to be wearing the booties Nedra made for them, but Jesse doesn't think the booties are manly, and he wants the twins to look manly. Later, Becky removes the bracelets from the twins, but leaves the booties on the twins so she can tell them apart. Minutes later, while Becky is out of the room, Jesse removes the booties from Nicky and Alex's feet. It takes Jesse only a few seconds to realize that now he can't tell Nicky and Alex apart without the bracelets and the booties. Jesse and Becky finally let Michelle hold one of the twins, and

Danny introduces Vicky to the family, and Bay City magazine has chosen Danny as their bachelor of the month. When the issue that Danny is in is released, a lot of women start asking Danny out on dates. Because of this, Danny is out virtually every night, and Michelle misses Danny being home to tuck her in at bedtime every night. On "Wake Up, San Francisco", Vicky accuses Danny of being a shallow date even though she has never dated Danny, and as a result, Danny asks Vicky out so she can experience a date with Danny. When Danny and Vicky go on their date, Michelle and Teddy stow away in Danny's car so Michelle can be with Danny. A few minutes after arriving at the restaurant, Danny sees Michelle and Teddy sitting at a table close to the one he and Vicky are sitting at. Danny talks to Michelle, and apologizes for not spending much time with her lately. At home, Danny and Vicky share a kiss. Meanwhile, in the attic, Jesse has f

Michelle wants to learn how to ride her bicycle without the training wheels on it, and Joey volunteers to teach her. During the bicycle lesson from Joey, Michelle crashes into a bush and gets a scrape on her hand, and she tells Joey that she doesn't trust him anymore, but Joey encourages Michelle to continue to learn how to ride her bike, and convinces her to trust him. Meanwhile, Becky and Jesse take Nicky and Alex to visit Becky's aunt Ida, and they end up taking almost everything in Nicky and Alex's bedroom with them. Also, Danny and Vicky become closer.

Danny, Jesse, and Joey are participating in a charity ice hockey game for KTMB TV, the TV station that Danny, Becky, Vicky, and Joey work for. Becky and Vicky will be at the game too, so Becky drops Nicky and Alex off at her aunt Ida's house while D.J. stays home to baby-sit Stephanie and Michelle. After all the adults have left, Steve Peters, a boy from D.J.'s school, shows up to take D.J. to the movies. Problem is, Michelle has the sniffles and is not allowed out of the house while she has the sniffles, and Stephanie needs to finish her book report. D.J., who desperately does not want to miss out on a date with Steve, decides to remedy this problem by taking Michelle and Stephanie to the movies with her and Steve. Problem is, between Steve and D.J., they don't have enough money for Michelle and Stephanie to get into the theater, but Kimmy happens to work at the theater. D.J. talks Kimmy into letting Stephanie and Michelle

It's time for Becky to return to "Wake Up, San Francisco", and Vicky has received an offer from a TV station in Chicago. Jesse, after yet another record company has rejected him, is now the only one who stays home with the kids while Danny, Becky, and Joey work at the TV station during the day, and Jesse's pride is hurting because Becky is the one who earns the money, while Jesse is like a stay-at-home mom. In order to solve this problem and start earning money, Jesse gets a job at an airport playing with The Diplomats, the airport's lounge band, and at the airport, Becky convinces Jesse that the fact that Becky earns the money and Jesse is like a stay-at-home mom does not mean that Jesse has become the weaker gender in their marriage. Also at the airport, Danny says goodbye to Vicky, who has accepted the offer from the TV station in Chicago, so Danny and Vicky will be maintaining a long distance relationship.

It's Stephanie's 10th birthday. When Stephanie hears that Tommy Page, her favorite singer, is scheduled to be a guest on "Wake Up, San Francisco", she begs Danny to invite Tommy to her birthday party, but Danny refuses. What Danny doesn't want Stephanie to know is that he has arranged for Tommy to be at the party, but he wants to surprise Stephanie, and that's why he told Stephanie he wouldn't invite Tommy. After Stephanie's party begins, Danny brings Tommy home with him, and Stephanie is shocked. Stephanie just happens to have a monumental crush on Tommy, but Stephanie is devastated when she later sees Tommy and D.J. kissing. Stephanie declares war on D.J. for this, until Tommy helps straighten things out between them.

Stephanie has won a class spelling bee at school, and she is now in the finals for best speller in the 4th grade. Stephanie's success in spelling makes Michelle want to learn how to read. At the 4th grade finals, the spelling bee ends up narrowed down to two students -- Stephanie and the "Human Dictionary" Davey Chu. Stephanie is severely disappointed when Davey wins, so she challenges Davey to another spelling bee, one on one, this time in the Tanner house with Danny being the judge. Once again, Davey wins, and Stephanie becomes even angrier until Danny tells her that even if she loses at things sometimes, he's still proud of her for putting forth her best effort. Meanwhile, Joey needs a piece of music to introduce cartoons on "The Ranger Joe Show", and he talks Jesse into trying to write the piece of music the show needs.

Danny's sister Wendy has returned to the USA from the African country of Uganda. Wendy is a primate researcher and she has a pet chimpanzee named Ginger, who quickly becomes attached to Jesse for some reason. Wendy is scheduled for a job interview at the local zoo, so Joey takes her to the interview. A package is in the mail, and when Stephanie and Michelle open it, it turns out to be a figure named "Nikata". The tag on it says that there will be a curse over the family if no one "feeds" Nikata.

After Jesse tells Michelle that she's not allowed to touch his musical instruments while he's not in the studio, she plays with them anyway while Jesse's not in the studio, and Jesse enters the room and reminds her of the rule he just made, then tells Danny what Michelle did, so Danny grounds Michelle for the day. Michelle is so angry that Jesse told on her that she runs away to Teddy's house, and she doesn't want to come back home, until Danny and Jesse trick her. At home, Jesse tells Michelle that he felt terrible about telling on her, and that she needs to know that she can't break the rules of the house, and that's why he told on her. Meanwhile, D.J. tries to help settle an argument between Stephanie and Kimmy.

D.J. now has her learner's permit and she's eager to learn how to drive. When Danny tries to teach D.J. how to drive, he makes her more nervous than she already is with the way he gives instructions, and by being overprotective. When Jesse tries to teach D.J. how to drive, Jesse makes her so nervous that she accidentally lays a huge scratch on Jesse's car. When the guys finally realize how helpless they are making D.J. feel by complicating her efforts to learn how to drive, they find the strength to let go and help D.J. do her learning in peace. Meanwhile, Joey helps Michelle realize that she must stop annoying Stephanie whenever Stephanie has friends over to the house.

Danny arrives home from work, and notices that the girls are in a bad mood because they haven't had a good day. Neither has Joey, who would rather forget that day's "Ranger Joe" episode. Danny suggests that they take a little time off from this stress and go out as a family for "Tanner Family Fun Night". Jesse and Becky stay at home with Nicky and Alex. Danny and Joey and the girls go to a pirate themed seafood restaurant, where D.J. is afraid she'll be embarrassed in front of her classmate Shelly Phillips, who is also at the restaurant, and Joey and the girls seem to get a little more bitter, but they lighten up when they are forced to "walk the plank" -- right into a pit full of balls. Meanwhile, at home, Jesse and Becky are having a disagreement as to how Nicky and Alex should be raised, and complicating things is the fact that Alex is sick and has a fever for the first time in his life.

It's time for Spring cleaning, one of Danny's favorite times of the year, but this year, Danny is overdoing it worse than ever. Everyone except for Danny gathers in D.J.'s bedroom for a meeting about this, and some hurtful things are said about Danny. What they don't know is that Danny is in D.J.'s closet installing shelf paper, and Danny overheard the whole meeting. In order to make the family happy, Danny tries to be as sloppy as he can, but then slips up and mentions something that he heard Joey say during the meeting, and Danny is forced to admit that he was in D.J.'s closet at the time of the meeting. The family apologizes for hurting Danny, and Danny admits that he needs to find a balance between clean and dirty instead of going too far in either direction -- and so does Michelle.

D.J., Stephanie, Michelle, and Kimmy have returned home from a summer at Camp Lakota. Michelle tells Jesse that she no longer wants Jesse to call her "Munchkin", which Jesse has affectionately called her for years, because everyone at camp gave her the nickname "Trailmix", and she likes it. Danny feels hurt when D.J., Stephanie, and Michelle act like they didn't miss the family one bit while they were at Camp Lakota. Upstairs, Stephanie and D.J. are surprised that Michelle has brought home a rabbit named Gilbert.

Danny is shocked when D.J. tells him that her classmate Kathy Santoni is pregnant, and Danny feels uncomfortable when D.J. says she's going to go to Steve's new apartment to watch TV with him. Danny tells D.J. to be home by 11:00pm, which is her curfew. Danny gives D.J. permission to go to Steve's apartment because he is told that Kimmy will be with D.J. at the apartment. What Danny doesn't know is that circumstances have prevented Kimmy from being able to be with D.J. the whole time at Steve's apartment. Later, it's past midnight, and D.J. is still not home yet. Danny calls Kimmy, who gives him the address of Steve's new apartment. A few minutes later, Danny knocks on Steve's door, but there is no answer because Steve and D.J. are asleep beside each other on the couch. They fell asleep while watching the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie "The Terminator".

Like Stephanie and D.J. once did, Michelle becomes a member of a local soccer team that Joey is now the head coach of. Danny and Jesse are overly excited about it, and in her first game, Michelle kicks the ball the wrong way and scores the winning goal for the opposing team. This has Michelle wanting to leave the team because she feels like she can no longer face her teammates, who chewed her out about costing them a game. Joey explains to Jesse and Danny that if they would have let Joey do his job as head coach and not put so much pressure on Michelle and made her so nervous, Michelle would have felt more comfortable in the game and maybe a little less prone to mistakes. As this is going on, Stephanie is videotaping a day in the life of the Tanners as a project for school.

Nicky and Alex are having behavior problems that are adversely affecting the lives of those who love them. Nicky and Alex even destroy Michelle's science project, which was a model of the nine planets. An angry Michelle lets on that Jesse and Becky should start making Nicky and Alex behave, so Jesse takes the twins to their bedroom for their first punishment, which is a timeout, meaning that they're grounded to their room for a portion of the day. After doing this, Jesse feels guilty when the twins call him "mean daddy" for this, and a "mean daddy" is the last thing Jesse wants to be. Becky reassures Jesse that the twins obviously didn't know that what they said to Jesse was hurtful. Meanwhile, Danny, who fears that the girls are too finicky to like Vicky's cooking, bribes Stephanie and Michelle into giving Vicky compliments at the dinner table so they won't make Vicky feel hurt.

For two weeks, Stephanie has been in 6th grade at DiMaggio Junior High School. Her old friends all attend different schools now, and Stephanie is desperate to make new friends, and she meets a group of 7th graders led by Gia Mahan, and they want Stephanie to smoke with them. That's why Stephanie is not sure that these girls are her type of friends. Meanwhile, Jesse and Joey are having a special on their radio show, "Rush Hour Renegades", where they have brought in D.J., Steve, and Kimmy to talk to teenagers who call in to seek advice.

Jesse is shocked to discover that he has inherited the Smash Club from Buzz Markel. Jesse and the Rippers played gigs at the Smash Club more than virtually any other band, but the place has been closed down for the past couple of years. Jesse will become the owner only if he can reopen the club. If he can't do it, the club will be turned into a parking lot. After receiving some ideas from D.J., Kimmy, Stephanie, and Steve, Jesse decides to reopen the Smash Club as a place where anyone can come to hear cool new music from new bands -- no age limit like the Smash Club had before, when people had to be 21 or older to get in. Jesse's plans also state that no alcoholic beverages will be served in "The New Smash Club". Jesse and Joey head to the Smash Club, which is, of course, a mess.

Michelle, who is in 2nd grade, is growing up faster than Danny is accepting. Danny still treats Michelle like a baby, and Michelle has had enough of that, so even though she doesn't want to have to get mad at Danny, she angrily tells Danny to stop treating her like a baby. Danny realizes that he needs to let go and start letting his kids grow up as they get older, so Danny talks to Michelle and promises to stop treating Michelle like a baby. Meanwhile, Jesse is overwhelmed by the fact that he has so many decisions to make about needs for the Smash Club, which he hasn't opened yet.

Jesse is now ready to reopen the Smash Club, and Danny, Joey, Becky, D.J., Kimmy, Stephanie, and Michelle will be helping Jesse at the club on this special night. Jesse wants absolutely nothing to go wrong, so he starts acting cranky around everyone. The opening could be a disaster when Jesse ends up locked in the Smash Club's storage room with Kimmy. As Danny, Joey, Becky, and the girls run the Smash Club the best they can while they think Jesse and Kimmy haven't showed up yet, Kimmy helps Jesse realize that Jesse was wrong to be cranky around everyone, and this teaches Jesse that if he wants to be a good boss, then he shouldn't treat his employees the way he treated Danny, Joey, Becky, and the girls. Jesse and Kimmy free themselves from the storage room, and the club has a fairly successful grand opening. At home, Jesse apologizes for the way he treated Kimmy and the family.

Michelle and her friends are angry at their favorite TV character "Rigby the Rhino". After seeing a commercial advertising a big, plush "action Rigby", Michelle and each of her friends order one, but instead of receiving a big, plush Rigby, they each receive a tiny plastic Rigby -- a clear case of false advertisement. Joey takes Michelle and her friends, along with their tiny plastic Rigbys, to Bayview Mall, where Rigby is making an appearance, and there is a large group of kids and their parents who are there to see Rigby. Joey, Michelle, and her friends don't want these kids to be swindled by a commercial that was a lie, so they show their tiny plastic Rigbys to these kids and warn these kids that the commercial was a lie.

While at a local public library, Stephanie sees an attractive blonde haired girl planting a kiss on Steve's cheek. Stephanie doesn't want to say anything to D.J. until she's sure Steve is seeing another girl. That's why Stephanie and Kimmy break into Steve's apartment, so they can investigate. Stephanie and Kimmy are nailed when D.J. and Steve show up. The girl who kissed Steve on the cheek was his cousin Edie, who kissed him out of friendship, proving that Steve is not seeing someone else. D.J. goes ballistic and tells a stunned Stephanie to stay out of her life, because D.J. feels that by breaking into Steve's apartment, Stephanie has reached a new low when it comes to invading D.J.'s privacy.

Michelle tells the family that her bicycle is missing, so the family starts a search for it. Later on, Danny, Jesse, and Joey have each brought home a bicycle that looks like Michelle's, but it turns out that none of the three bikes belong to Michelle. At the same time, the disappearances of the three bikes is being investigated by Crime Catchers, a neighborhood watch program led by Mrs. Carruthers, who works at the school Michelle goes to. It turns out that Michelle had forgotten that she left her bike at her friend Derek Boyd's house.

In playgroups, 2-year-old Nicky and Alex refuse to play with anyone except for each other. Jesse is too stubborn to admit that this is a problem, until he and Becky attend a support group for parents of twins. After the visit with the support group, Jesse later admits that he didn't want to acknowledge the problem because he was afraid that he may discover that he's somehow the cause of it and he doesn't want to do anything to mess up Nicky and Alex's lives, but Jesse was proven wrong at the support group. Meanwhile, D.J. gets a traffic ticket for "obstruction of vision" when Kimmy decides to air out her socks by sticking her feet out the window of the car. D.J. wants to keep the ticket a secret from Danny because she's afraid Danny will never let her drive the car again. Stephanie and Michelle use this information to their advantage to force D.J. to let them borrow clothes from her.

Joey is the host of the test pilot episode of a game show called "The Perfect Couple", a show that would remind you of the Newlywed Game. The three couples on the game are a dating couple (D.J. and Steve), an engaged couple (Danny and Vicky), and a married couple (Jesse and Becky). While everyone is out, doing the new show, Stephanie and Michelle have their work cut out for them as they babysit Nicky and Alex. Vicky is out of town, so she can't be on the show with Danny, and Estelle, the woman who substitutes for Vicky, seems to know Danny all too well, and as a result of the show, D.J. thinks she and Steve don't know each other well enough. When Vicky shows up at the studio that "The Perfect Couple" was taped in, she tells Danny that her lifelong dream of being a network news anchor has come true -- she has accepted a job as a network news anchor in New York City.

Stephanie's classmate Jamie, who plays guitar with some friends in a band called "Human Pudding", asks Stephanie out on a date to the Smash Club, and Stephanie excitedly agrees to go to the Smash Club with Jamie. Stephanie's classmate Gia Mahan is not as excited, because Gia also has her eyes on Jamie, and she's not about to let Stephanie have him that easily. In order to make Jamie cancel his date with Stephanie, Gia spreads a false rumor at school that Stephanie wouldn't have any dates if she didn't pay guys to date her. Gia's plan works, and Jamie breaks the date, so Stephanie gets even with Gia by hanging up a blowup of Gia's awful report card in the hallway. This makes Gia feel even more hurt than Stephanie felt when Gia spread the false rumor about Stephanie. Noticing how hurt Gia feels makes Stephanie feel guilty.

It's the day before D.J.'s SAT, and she's so nervous about it that when she goes to sleep that night, she has a nightmare about it in which everything possible goes wrong: D.J. oversleeps on the day of the test and is late, and Ms. Twitchel, a neighbor D.J. yelled at, is the teacher, Danny and Becky come by to broadcast the test live, and with too many last-minute changes to the test, D.J. fails the test with not even her name written correctly. When D.J. wakes up from this nightmare, Danny convinces her that she doesn't have to be so nervous about the SAT, and her teacher turns out to be a much friendlier teacher named Mrs. Moffatt.

After a couple of weeks of dating her, Joey introduces his new girlfriend Roxy Martin to the family. Roxy is a comedian, like Joey. Roxy is nervous about meeting the family, and as a result, she can't think of anything funny to say. After Roxy meets the family, Jesse schedules Roxy to perform on comedy night at the Smash Club, where Roxy adds insulting jokes about the family to her comedy routine. At home, after returning Little Sid to its owner Big Sid, the girls are given a choice of one item from Big Sid's store for free, and this leads to arguments between the girls, who each want a different item. D.J. wants to get a big-screen TV, and Stephanie wants to get a Karaoke machine. The decisive vote is left up to Michelle.

In a special episode: Jesse's grandfather Iorgos "Papouli" Katsopolis is back from Greece for another visit. The family finds it pleasant to have Papouli around. One morning during Papouli's visit, everyone goes to wake him up after Michelle has gone to school -- only to discover that Papouli has died in his sleep. His death was caused by heart failure. When Michelle arrives home from school later that day, Danny tells her that Papouli has died. Michelle is devastated, and it turns out that only one person can comfort Michelle, and that person is Jesse, who is taking it just as hard. Kimmy and D.J. argue over a pair of sunglasses, but Papouli's death helps them realize that friendship is too important for them to argue over a pair of sunglasses.

Jesse has returned home from Greece, where he attended Papouli's funeral, and he has brought his cousin Stavros home with him. What Jesse doesn't know is that Stavros is a womanizing con artist. Stavros (also played by John Stamos) swindles Joey out of a watch and $20, makes a pass at Becky, gets Danny a $65 parking ticket, and Stavros also makes D.J. pay for an awful-smelling goat pizza that Stavros had the money for all along. When everyone tries to tell Jesse what kind of man Stavros is, Jesse refuses to believe them. The Smash Club is the setting for Stavros's latest scam, in which he says that a severe mudslide has occurred in his hometown in Greece and he is raising money at the Smash Club for his hometown's recovery from the mudslide. Becky and the girls discover that there was no mudslide, and that Stavros plans to take the money -- and Becky -- on an airplane flight to Florida with him.

Steve goes to a seminar in Los Angeles with his film class, and D.J. doesn't seem as excited as Steve is. A few days later, D.J. tells Becky that she's worried about her relationship with Steve.
