- Walden's commitment is tested when Zoey and her daughter come to live with him. Meanwhile, Alan gets more than he bargained for when he moves in with Lyndsey.
- As trial run for becoming a household, Walden invites Zoey to stay a weekend with daughter Ava, who adores her potential stepfather, but as Berta predicted, the spoiled-rotten kid exhausts him relentlessly to utter despair, while Zoey enjoys 'sweet freedom'. Alan already dreaded having to move out so-long, but couldn't guess the constant, positively dangerous misery he encounters at Lyndsey's home.—KGF Vissers

Previously: Walden asked Zoey and Ava to move in with him.
Alan is exercising on a big red ball and Walden breaks the news that he wants Alan to move out for a week since Ava and Zoey are coming for a trial run over spring break to see if it will work out in the future. He tells Alan to think of it as a trial run of his own. Alan claims that no one is rooting for Walden's personal happiness more than Alan.
Walden informs Berta that Zoey and Ava are coming and that Ava is 7. Berta says she'll be taking the week off. Walden convinces her to stay and says he will help out with Ava since he'll have to do that if he and Zoey get married. She tries to play hardball with him but he won't cave given how little work she actually does.
Zoey and Ava arrive and Zoey admits she's terrified, pointing out that if this little experiment doesn't work then they're done. Walden is terrified now too. Alan comes out and Zoey snipes at him that she's so glad he's allowing her boyfriend to use his own house. He'll be staying with Lindsey. But first he has to de-porn his room for Ava.
At Lindsey's, Alan and Lindsey drink beer and she gets flirty and then asks him to fix the toilet. As he heads off she pulls out a "honey do" list and sets him to work.
Zoey heads off to the store and Walden says he'll watch Ava while she's gone. Ava gets bored of playing with her dolls and wants Walden to entertain her. They dance around to music, have a tea party, she rides him like a horse, he does sock puppets and they play hide and seek. She's a little too good and he gets frantic until he finds her under a chair. They also bake cookies and do plane rides and finger paint. Zoey returns and Walden is zonked out on the couch.
Over at Lindsey's Alan is still fixing things. He puts a copper penny in her fuse box and electrocutes himself. He does get her TV back on though.
Walden reads Zoey a bedtime story. He tries to sneak out when he sees she's asleep and he's grateful. When he turns out the light she says it's too dark and then he turns them back on and it's too light. He then turns the bathroom light on. He then checks under the bed and in the closet for monsters. (No monsters but he does find Alan's blow up woman.) Then Ava wants a Pellegrino.
Lindsey comes to bed and comforts Alan with kisses. And then she hears something downstairs. She wants him to go look. Tennis raquet in hand he checks out the noise and it turns out to be Jake and Eldredge who came looking for their weed. They smack Alan in the face with the door but don't see him.
Walden awakes to a chipper Ava, who announces it's still breakfast time even though it's still dark out. He lets Zoey sleep. She asks for Eggs Benedict.
The next morning Alan and Lindsey return from the hospital. He has a taped up nose. She gets him into bed. He wants to get it on and she says she'll take care of him. She starts unzipping his pants but catches his pubic hair, he rolls out of the bed and hits his nose again on the nightstand.
Berta arrives to see Walden sleeping on a table full of cereal. He explains Ava was very demanding about breakfast. He tells her it's too much and it never stops. She tells him to just wait 9 years and if he's lucky she'll run away with a coke-addled bass player. He wonders if what happens if he's not lucky. A drummer she says.
At Lindsey's, even with two new wounds on his head and scrotum Alan still wants to get it on. She says she does owe him and now he's wearing sweatpants. But just as she's about to make it happen she smells something dead, she thinks it's a dead possum under the porch. He's so horny he doesn't want to wait for an exterminator and goes to shovel it out himself. When he gets under the porch he discovers it's not dead and the possum attacks him.
Alan and Walden meet up at the bar. Walden is nursing an Ava-induced headache and Alan is a wreck of bandages and scratches. Alan explains what happened. Walden wonders what the smell is. "Neosporin and a hint of possum," says Alan. They both lie and say living with their women is great. Then Walden says "if I could get rid of them..." and before he can continue Alan says "Yes, a hundred times yes" and they hug.
