The Kramer family is divided over whether Libby's boyfriend should be allowed to stay for the weekend.

Anne gives Jesse some helpful advice on how to communicate with his prospective girlfriend, but when Jesse is a little too frank, Anne must find a way to mend the communication gap and her son's feelings.

After reading a ""semi-autobiography"" written by an old boyrfriend, Anne abandons her conservative lifestyle to get back in touch of the woman of the '60s she used to be--and winds up getting arrested. Meanwhile, Nana dates a man the Kramer family knows too well.

Anne and Libby, at the advice of their family counselor, take on a household project to improve their interaction and communication.

While Anne and Teddy are away overnight, Libby tries to persuade Jesse that this is the perfect time for a coed college party -- but they later find themselves locked in the bathroom while the party roars on out of control.
