Lisa discovers that kids' ""play dates"" can be as troublesome as adult dating when the mother of Tess's new friend, Corrine, causes nothing but problems, almost ruining the little girls' friendship. Meanwhile, Kevin and Lisa clash when Kevin realizes the only way his assistant coach, Brick, will get a raise is if Kevin pays him out of his own pocket.

After Visa raises their credit limit, Lisa decides that it's time for the Hunters to have tidings aplenty for Christmas (she and Tess decide to be Jewish, so they can have 8 days worth of presents each!). However, things start looking dreary when Lisa is placed under a gag order on a case she's working on, and she accidentally blurts out classified information to a obnoxious radio talk show host who's personally attacked her character. When the judge declares a mistrial, Lisa is initially fired, but her job is reinstated because the DA feels the ""voters frown on a working mother being fired during the holidays."" So, in need of a fall guy, Mr. Nash takes the bullet, and it's up to Lisa to stand up to the pretentious D.A. and win Mr. Nash's job back.

When the Hunters get robbed, they get to be friends with their new neighbor, Marty, and his son. The next thing they know, Marty's gotten their possessions returned. They figure out how he pulled those stings when a picture of Lisa and Marty ends up on Mr. Nash's desk -- Marty's the head of the mob!
