Finally, his parents figure it out and end Carrie's job--but her good-bye kiss makes it worth the effort for J.T.

Dana and her friends, Rebecca (DAWN McMILLAN) and Lauren (SENTA MOSES), organize a feminist study group at school. When Cody hears about it, he excitedly joins. Dana is upset, but Rebecca and Lauren like Cody. At the first meeting, which no one attends except Cody and the three girls, Rebecca and Lauren become more interested in Cody than in the feminist issues. Later, to make Dana feel better, Cody gets a large group of women to come to the house for another meeting. Unfortunately, Dana finds out that they only agreed to attend the meeting if Cody goes on dates with them.
Meanwhile, Mark has no date for a school dance, but he attends anyway. At the dance, a pretty girl, Tawny Spencer (JULIE BENZ), gets angry at her bullying date, Chuck Plyter (BRAD HAWKINS), and defiantly asks Mark to dance.

J.T. and Al return from the audition before Frank and Carol get home. Unfortunately, in their haste, they bring the wrong baby home.
Meanwhile, at a beauty products convention, Frank annoys Carol by complaining about how boring it is. She finally tells him to wait for her in the bar. But Frank passes a beautiful product representative on his way out, and she convinces him to let her demonstrate a scalp massage on him. After Carol catches Frank flirting with the saleswoman, they argue and agree not to force each other to attend their respective business functions anymore.

7:00pm - The Fight Before Christmas
Carol arranges a date for Al with the neighbors' son, Matt Crawford (recurring guest star ANDREW KEEGAN). Al and Matt initially argue, but Frank later sees them kissing.

J.T. uses his own money to buy a tree for a poor child, Jimmy (CHAD POWER).

7:30pm - What's Wrong with This Picture?
Dana admires a famous feminist artist, Jayne McNeal (MELANIE WILSON), and agrees to pose nude for a painting. Since Dana is convinced that the work will be abstract, and she will not be recognizable, she proudly invites Frank, Carol, Karen and Al to a charity auction where it will be unveiled. Unfortunately, the painter decided to be realistic, and it's obvious that it's Dana in the painting.
Meanwhile, Frank refuses to hire an exterminator. He becomes so obsessed with catching a rat in the attic that he hurts himself and ends up having to use crutches with his arm in a sling.
Also, J.T. fears for his life when he ends his relationship with Casey Maxwell (ROBYN BLILEY), the daughter of an alleged crime boss.
