Episode Summary[]

One morning Gabe comes downstairs with the schedule for their trip to Super Adventure Land, even planning who's going where and what time it will happen. Teddy comes in for breakfast forgetting they were going to Super Adventure Land, stating that she was going to look for work today. Bob tells her she can job hunt tomorrow, today will be an all day family event. When the Duncan family is at Super Adventure Land, Gabe and Amy get offered a job to be in a commercial, but when they receive the script, Amy is upset that Gabe gets most of the lines and she only gets one. While Gabe does point out people are more likely to pay attention if a kid talks, she decides to make a few tweaks to the script, which is really big changes including making her the star and Gabe as the one-liner. On the day of the commercial, she gets fired for changing the script and replaced by another woman. Even after being placed as a background character, Amy gets kicked off for stealing the shot.

Meanwhile, Emmett gives Teddy a job at Super Adventure Land so she could save up for a new car, but soon she discovers that the job Emmett got her is to portray the princess in the classic fairy tale The Princess & The Frog and Emmett is the frog. At first Teddy is uncomfortable with kissing a boy that has always annoyed her. She invites Emmett over so they can kiss but Emmett gets cold feet out of fear that the kiss won't be perfect and quits his job at Super Adventure Land. The next day at work, Teddy finds out that the new Frog is her ex-boyfriend Spencer, much to her annoyance. However, little did Teddy know, Spencer is delighted to be working with her as he still has feelings for her.

With Amy working late in evenings, P.J. decides to give cooking a try. Bob is so pleased with P.J.'s cooking, especially the meat loaf and brownies, that he would do anything to get more, by making Amy work late again. Bob goes as far as even doing PJ's homework for him, so he could cook again. Eventually, Bob invites 3 of his friends over when P.J. makes chili, which is starting to frustrate P.J. since he has a book report on Wuthering Heights due the next day. Bob asks one of his friends to write the report (although that person saw the movie instead of actually reading the book). When P.J. tells Bob he's flunking his classes because Bob and his friend did his homework and because Bob has put on weight, P.J. tells Bob he's not cooking for him anymore.

End Credits[]
