## Summary

It's homecoming at Dewey High, and Principal DeWitt is gleefully announcing the candidates for the homecoming court. Carol is scoffing at the apparent elitism of the court members - until her name is announced as one of the queen nominees. Carol is ecstatic - then very scared and anxious at the thought of being on the court. This triggers many of her past insecurities of being "fat" and nerdy. During one dream sequence, the court is being announced when Carol (wearing an expensive dress and having her hair done) suddenly gains weight and shifts back to her "bookish nerd" self, Mike pointing out the obvious to everyone's ridicule. But on the night of the homecoming dance, Carol learns that the "elite" girls of her class are just as nervous - perhaps more so - about being on the court. Carol realises that she is not alone in her anxiety and, even though someone else is crowned queen, she has a great time at the dance.

## Summary

All of the Seaver children have left the nest and have children of their own. But when Mike, Carol, and Chrissy have no place to go when Kate is at a spa, Scott is out on a campaign, and Chrissy claims to have gotten evicted, what's going to happen?

Jason and Maggie were originally going to sell the house to a childhood friend of Mike and Carol's named Richie Flanscopper. In reality, the realtor is Ben. Ben is dead set on selling this house, but the rest of the Seaver kids aren't so keen on the idea. Due to this, Mike and Carol (who's pregnant), take matters into their own hands and sabotage the house so their little brother can't sell it to Richie and his wife Fiona.

Mike's oldest Michelle is sad about her dad is going to Tokyo for a job promotion, while the rest of the kids haven't a thought about it.

Ben realizes that his siblings and parents really do not want to sell the house. He drives Mike's car through the garage door, and Fiona and Richie decide not to buy the house. All Seavers rejoice, except Carol who all of a sudden goes into labor.
