==Episode Summary==
The episode opens with Dean and Jane putting up a "WELCOME, FAMILY" banner and Rachel giving them verbal directions. Dean continuously complains about the length of the labour, however Rachel doesn't seem to care. A short time later Alexa enters the room, notices the banner and asks Rachel about its origins. Here Rachel explains that her cousin Danielle was set to pay her a visit after not seeing her for more than a decade. Alexa then mentions that her own sister Victoria was set to pay her a visit as well after not seeing her since high school. After this moment the doorbell rings, and the two girls are unsure of which family member turned up at that moment. Alexa decides to go into hiding anyway. Dean and Jane let go of the banner right as Rachel goes to answer the door. Proud of their efforts, Dean and Jane decide to high-five each other, however their hands end up getting stuck together. Rachel then answers the door to her cousin Danielle. She introduces her to her friends, in which she makes some sly comments about, and directs her to her and Dean's bedroom to set down her things. Dean and Jane end up getting their hands unstuck, but accidentally get them stuck again immediately afterwards following another high-five.
Several hours later, Alexa is seen slouched over on the couch in disappointment after her sister fails to show up. Dean and Jane begin to comfort her before finally the doorbell rings. Alexa rushes to go answer it and is greeted by her sister Victoria. Alexa greets her with enthusiasm, but Victoria responds by slapping her in the face without a word and storms off. Confused and concerned, Dean decides to go after Victoria while Jane helps Alexa to her feet. Out on the street, Dean confronts Victoria and asks her about why she slapped Alexa. After a little while, she finally confesses to him that she was mad at Alexa for "stealing" her high school boyfriend by kissing him on prom night. Dean doesn't offer any more questions and decides to return home to Alexa.
In Rachel's bedroom, Rachel and Danielle begin to have a hostile conversation while Danielle unpacks her belongings. The conversation eventually leads to Danielle's work, which allows Rachel to let Danielle use her computer. Danielle pulls out a shiny flash drive and tells Rachel that it contained all of her life's work on it. Rachel continues to let her work.
Jane is seen nursing Alexa with an ice-pack when Dean re-enters the house. He then tells her about his encounter with Victoria. This makes Alexa furious, so she convinces Dean and Jane to come along with her to Victoria's hotel room. When the three arrive at Victoria's door, Dean helps himself to a high fibre cookie while they wait for Victoria to answer. She answers, and eventually invites them into her room. Her and Alexa then engage in a hostile confrontation, which ends with Victoria inviting her ex-boyfriend to have dinner with them. Despite Alexa's protests, Victoria still forces her and her friends to come to the dinner, which she eventually accepts. The scene ends with Dean taking a long high-pitched fart.
That evening, Rachel can be seen cooking her and her friends dinner when Danielle enters with her flashdrive. After noticing Rachel's cooking, she places her flash drive onto her set of keys and goes into the bathroom. Meanwhile Alexa, Dean and Jane enter the house, and Alexa convinces Jane to make her look "as hideous as possible". Dean also takes it upon himself to get changed. Soon later the three of them are ready to leave, so Dean gives Rachel a kiss and Jane takes Danielle's set of keys by accident before setting off. Once they leave Rachel decides to have a peak at the contents of Danielle's flash drive, but when she picks up Danielle's keys, it is revealed to be Jane's instead. Rachel then chooses to follow her friends to the restaurant in order to get the flash drive back; writing a quick note to Danielle in the process.
Alexa, Dean and Jane show up to Julie's Burger Bar at the same time as Victoria. When Jane sets out towards the bar, Victoria agrees to sit with Alexa and Dean. The three of them take notice of the various baked goods present on tables in the restaurant. Rachel also manages to sneak in and makes several attempts to get Jane's attention. All the while, Victoria reveals that her ex-boyfriend was now present, and he enters, now revealed to be Dean's old friend Leaf Hamilton. Leaf then explains his past relationship with Victoria through a flashback to the previous series. At the conclusion of the flashback he recognises Dean and greets him before turning his attention to Alexa. He ends up complimenting her, making Victoria feel furious. She ends up throwing a cup of soda at Alexa in response. Alexa attempts to defend herself, however Victoria chooses to hit her with different food items instead. The situation quickly escalates to a full-blown food fight, which Dean decides to record on his phone. Eventually Leaf interrupts the fight when he finally reveals the truth - that Victoria mistook Alexa's identity for his now current wife Amy Sambonee, which he then presents. He eventually leaves and the two girls are left to clean up their mess. Rachel ends up getting Jane and Danielle's keys switched.
Alexa and Victoria engage in a heartfelt conversation while they are left alone to clean up their mess. Victoria attempts to apologise, however Alexa refuses to forgive her due to the thought of having their previous fight filmed on Dean's phone. Dean ends up eavesdropping on the conversation as the two girls discuss Alexa's feelings for Dean. While she denies having feelings for him, he secretly decides to delete the footage of their fight off of his phone.
During the closing credits, Rachel arrives home to find a distressed Danielle standing in the kitchen. She presents her with her flashdrive before Blanket ends up stealing it; leading her to plug it into Jane's laptop and view the contents. It is soon revealed that the flashdrive contained an A.I. based application that generated graphic art. Danielle decides to bribe Blanket with cash in order for her to keep her secret, and she accepts.
