== Biography==
After Anne returns to Earth with the Plantars after escaping King Andrias without Sasha or a severely injured Marcy, she travels back to her house to reunite with her parents Bee and Oum who were glad to see her safe and soon. What the parents did not expect was for the Plantars to show themselves before the parents which made Bee faint. Anne proceeds to tell her parents a shortened version of the events she spent in Amphibia. Anne also objected to her frog friends being handed over to the authorities as she was unwilling to let them be experimented on. Oum agrees to let the Plantars stay for the time being. 
The frogs proceed to party out with the Boonchuy parents keeping any Plantars inside the house when they come close to being outside. After one night of the Plantars' partying, Oum was making sure that Anne was cleaned up. When the parents were planning to go to the market, Anne insisted that that they let the Plantars come along. They agreed, but if something went wrong, the Plantars will be placed back into lockdown. After the Boonchuys and the Plantars drive over to the market, Bee reminds them that they must stick with one another, or they go back into lockdown. 
Suddenly when they enter the market, Bee realized he forgot the shopping list, but is relieved that Anne had a photocopy of it. When the parents were planning to go to the market, Anne insisted that that they let the Plantars come along. They agreed, but if something went wrong, the Plantars will be placed back into lockdown with his wife agreeing. After the Boonchuys and the Plantars drive over to the market, Raya reminds them that they must stick with one another or they go back into lockdown. Suddenly when they enter the market, Raya realized he forgot the shopping list, but is relieved that Anne had a photocopy of it. 
After Anne manages to drive off the Fro-Bot assassin targeting her after a significant amount of damage was done to it, she was able to get the fish Bee wanted to get from the store before both families return home for noodles. Following the events when Anne took the Plantars to the mall, Raya and Anne begin to do work in their Thai Go family restraunt where the Plantars try out some of the food. However, Oum starts to feel discomfort with Sprig's antics. When Sprig tries to help out, all Raya can tolerate is provide him a cup of soda. Raya is also with odds with Ned who wanted her to share family recipes against her wishes. 
After Sprig gets into trouble with Ned's customers, Raya and Anne drag him back in and Raya proceeds to non-verbally scold Anne on Sprig's behavior. When Ned brings Raya a fake note Sprig wrote, she gets furious at what Sprig did when Ned's food truck starts moving as a result of Sprig trying to ruin Ned's life only for it to run down the road when Anne tried to stop him. After the truck was stopped, Raya proceeds to give Sprig an earful for his disobedience and the mischief he has done along with getting her daughter in danger when the food truck got moved. Ned also realized that pursuing the recipes is considered an insult to Thai culture. However, Raya did permit Ned to be a deliveryman for the restaurant.
Later as Anne was gone for five months, Raya insisted her to go to the dentist while Bee works at Thai Go while having entrusted the family cat Domino to be taken to the vet. Raya later arrives home with Anne who had bug pieces in between her teeth. The next day, noticing Anne was getting exhausted from trying to help the Plantars get home, Raya insists that the four head to the museum so Anne can catch back on homework while Raya cleans the house of a mess the Plantars made. When Anne and the Plantars try to visit Dr. Jan at the museum, Raya stops them and insists the four help load up alongside her husband and go to the Thai Temple she and her husband have been going to when Anne went missing. Raya promises to let Anne go to the museum if she stays at the temple for an hour. 
At the temple, Oum insisted to Anne that she remains in sight at the temple where everyone can see her. However, Oum catches Anne trying to sneak off to the museum and explains she and her husband owe a hunk to the Thai community for looking after them when Anne was missing. Suddenly the temple comes under siege from attack drones sent by the robot assassin, leading to Oum and her fellow Thai fighting back against them. Soon Oum and Anne help clean up the remains of the robot drones. At home the Boonchuy parents have been remarking how responsible and mature Anne was becoming. 
But when the robot assassin, Cloak-Bot, invades the Boonchuy family home when Andrias activated its self-destruct function, they promptly retreat to Oum's "work out" room where she made dolls of Anne over the months she was missing. This actually manages to fool the assassin long enough to escape with Bee driving the car with both families with the robot hot on their tail. After Anne tries fending off the robot, Oum uses her phone and tells her husband to take a left ramp running over the robot when it tries to impede them. After escaping to a junkyard, Oum proceeds to scold Anne under the belief she was still irresponsible. However, Anne defends herself by saying what she did was for the safety of the ones she cared for. Soon the assassin arrives, prompting Anne to suggest Oum to distract the robot with the dummy making skills she had. 
When the robot tries to shoot Anne with a nailgun, Oum thwarts this attempt by smashing into its body with a hammer and Anne impales it with a dead-end sign. After Oum bashes the robot a few more times with the hammer, the robot reveals its self-destruct system which prompts Anne to use her gem power knock its busted body into the clouds before it blows up. When Anne collapses from the power usage, Bee was driving home when he notices he was not in the group hug much to his disappointment. Following the events of the previous episode, the Boonchuys and the Plantars were celebrating their victory over the assassin. Anne is confident in going without her parents since she does not expect another robot from Andrias to appear soon.
Soon Mr. X heads to Thai Go in search of the Plantars, believing them to be an alien menace where Oum greets them, when asked about the Plantars Oum acts like she is not aware, but when Mr. X received the whereabouts of Anne and the Plantars, Oum brings her husband along to try and protect the Plantars from X. When Mr. X's partner blocks the theater entrance, Bee sends Anne a call to let her know he and his wife are trying to save them. Bee almost immediately comes to the idea to go to the pet shop where he buys some frogs as part of their plan to get Anne and the Plantars out while Oum uses a magic trick to stall the FBI. The Boonchuy parents kill the power to get Anne and the Plantars out via the airvent. Following Hop Pop giving up a potential job as an actor to Humphrey, Oum notices the Plantars soaking themselves in the lawn. 
Before Anne checks on them she tells her mom that she made Cicada cookies. After Anne and the Plantars manage to escape from a mad Dr. Frakes, Oum proceeds to set everything up for the holidays at home. Soon she gets a phone call about the community parade, but she declines as she was concerned about her and her family being a target of King Andrias After Anne succeeds in building a parade float against her mother's wishes, Anne shows it to both her parents with Oum being actually pleased with the effort. Soon the Plantars and the Boonchuys join the parade with Oum appreciating being part of the community. However, Andrias, with his new remote-control robot, was able to find her as Oum feared and uses it to take over a giant Santa figure to attack the float Anne and company are on, prompting the I.T. gals, who were escorting the float, to help both families to escape while Oum and Bee throw decorations from the float to try and stall the Andrias-controlled Santa when they end up at a dead end.
Just as Andrias is about to obliberate the float and everyone on it, Anne and the Plantars use a tree as an improvised harpoon to impale the Santa machine to end Andrias's current threat. Soon after they get home, Oum starts to laugh even though Andrias nearly killed them and Anne apologized for the events leading to it. Oum also reassures that they were able to to be together for Christmas. Bee also was able to get a photo of both families on top of the Santa robot's remains.
