Carmen and Carla decided to study cooking to get a head start on their careers. Carla picked up a cookbook, while Carmen turned on the TV and surfed over to the Food Network. Before long, they each had some cooking skill.

Carla found time to chat with Margaret Xavier.




Michael saw that his daughters weren't looking for boyfriends, and Michael wondered about it. Finally he decided to have a talk with them after work.

Soon it was time for Conner to have a birthday and become a child. William and Michael came to watch Carla hold Conner up to the cake and help him blow the candles out.


Right after Conner grew up, he had a toilet accident. I guess someone should have taken him to the potty before he grew up, but oh well. He got a bad memory of this.

Later that evening, Carmen tried to get Conner to study using Williams homework. However, Conner was still obsessing over his accident and didn't quite learn enough to get the memory.

He got up just in time the next morning to get on the bus with William. When Conner got home, Michael sat down with him and finished helping him study. William also did his homework, after a round outside kicking over some pink flamingoes.
Carmen and Carla got jobs in the culinary track. While Carmen was on the job, she saw several teenagers that were known to grab their food at the drive-through and leave without paying for it. She knew she could either ask them to leave, or teach them a lesson. She decided to go ahead and teach them a lesson.

Michael had gone to work as a waterboy, but when he got home he decided to quit his job. He decided to help raise his grandsons and give his daughters a boost. Michael went about cleaning the house, includig the toilet, and even though he only had a bit of mechanical skill, Michael fixed the TV and the shower when they broke down.



Michael was very active in his grandson's lives. Even after they were in bed, he would come in and tuck them for the night.
