When her mother Margaret announces her intention to marry widower David,Maddy does not share the rest of the family's enthusiasm,especially as he has had four previous wives and the happy couple met at the last one's funeral. Being a bridesmaid in a vast fluffy dress does not appeal either but when Margaret seems to have cold feet Maddy talks her round into tying the knot. Katy manages to lose her grandma's car and get it wheel-clamped whilst Dan defeats the school bully by telling him he fancies him.
When a client of Jim's goes bankrupt,owing him thousands,he asks Roger,the lawyer from next door for legal advice and ends up getting billed for his services. Meanwhile Amanda,a woman Jim has met on the Internet and is obsessed with him,shows up and kisses him in front of Danny. Hearing the parents discuss how to deal with Roger the kids assume they are getting divorced but when the matter is cleared up they combine to put Amanda off.

By this time Maddy is offering the Weavers advice on how to settle their differences - differences which are only resolved when the Weavers see how argumentative Maddy and Jim are by comparison.
