Porter is blindsided by the arrival of his football player brother and certainly unprepared to tackle the concept that Bobby's new million-dollar contract requires him to move into Porter's responsible household.

Porter's worried about Bobby's influence when Oscar decides he wants to be a bus driver instead of going to college. Since Oscar's been spending so much time with Bobby, Porter has been left with gaps in his day so Bobby suggests he get a hobby.

Bobby finds himself in a football-kicking slump after he promises to make a field goal for Oscar during a Monday Night Football game. ABC's NFL Monday Night Football commentators Al Michaels, Dan Dierdorf and Boomer Esiason guest star as themselves.

Porter becomes depressed after he gives a talk on Abraham Lincoln to Oscar's class and literally bores the students to sleep; Bobby hopes to shine up his brother's image in class.

After impulsively setting out on the road Porter, Bobby and Dena find themselves broken down at a garage with a couple of feuding brothers-in-law whose relationship strangely reflects on their own.

Porter's scheme to win Dena's heart by trying to outwit Gino begins to backfire on the lovesick professor. A small earthquake shakes up the usually unflappable Bobby, he demands to be traded.
