The plot is like a combination of a 1970s made-for-TV crime drama and Shakespeare's "The Taming of the Shrew." Vikram (called Vicky) murders in self-defense a man who was blackmailing his father over an illegitimate son he once had. Encouraged by his uncle, Vicky goes into hiding, where he meets a rebellious girl named Anju, who has organized a group of women who physically beat up men for doing anything so bad as even winking at girls. Disguised variously as a woman and as a wealthy prince, Vicky converts Anju to the path of womanliness, and they decide to get married. However, at the engagement party, the police finally catch up with Vicky and take him away. It is then that Vicky remembers for the first time a detail which proves that he couldn't have been the man who shot the blackmailer. It is then up to Vicky, Anju and the rest of the cast to find the real murderer.

The attic roof collapses. Dave convenes a special "Blamestorming" session to uncover who is at fault. After pointing the finger at each kid, it turns out Dad might really be to blame.

Everybody's stressing themselves and Dave out with little details so he decides the Keller mantra of the week will be "don't sweat the small stuff." A business theory that starts out well, till Ronnie comes home with an F.

The Keller teens decide the only way they're going to get a break from Dad is to find a new crib to hang in - as contestants on the hit reality television show "Teen Party Palace". Since the totally hip series only accepts online submissions, Eli and Av need to make a slick application video. They need to look totally cool. Problem: they have no camera and no money to rent one. Problem solved. Dave's got lots of experience from his youthful days of dabbling in corporate communications (his short silent film "The Pencil" rocks). With Dave leaping on board as Producer, the kids can rent the professional equipment they need to make a kick-ass audition tape. There's just one minor detail. Dave thinks that he's producing the "Keller Family Corporation Instructional Video". Under Dad's creative control, Eli and Av find themselves captured on tape in some very uncool situations. Can Eli salvage their audition video before their dorky Dad-directed premiere...? And what is Tracey Dupont-Roymont doing there?

Eli and Avalon want to redesign Dad so that he'll get a new job and they'll get back their freedom. Unfortunately, the repackaged Dad lands a job as Avalon and Eli's guidance counselor so the Keller kids have to get Dave fired-and fast.

Dad's in the house. And that means big changes for the Keller kids. Ronnie gets an actual bedtime. Avalon loses her cell phone and unlimited calling privileges. And no more killer Keller-Casa parties. Desperate to save her plummeting social stock, Avalon maneuvers Eli into booking the EMO band Yellow Stayne to play a concert Chez Keller. This will be the house party to end all house parties. And Eli will get to hook up with the super hot Tracey Dupont-Roymont. Now all Eli has to do is keep Dad out of the house. Just for six hours. How hard can that be?

Eli scores seats for him and his buds to the big basketball game. Avalon snags tickets for her and her gal pals to the Boy Band concert of the decade. There's just one problem. The game and the concert are on the same night. And there's only one driver. Dad. Dave encourages Eli and Avalon to negotiate a deal that they can both agree on. The Keller kids come up with the perfect equation: two events plus one minivan equals eight hours of driving for Dad. Dave refuses. There's only one thing left for him to do. STRIKE! Can the Keller kids break his spirit? Meanwhile, Ronnie discovers that she has a real talent for negotiation.

Dave can't rely on Eli to handle important Keller Family Corporation duties. So Dave and Ronnie set out to hire a responsible intern for the Family Biz. The winning and grinning candidate is Warren Silver. He's clever. He's professional. AND he's been Eli's nemesis since Grade Three. Warren loves his job and his charm quickly turns to smarm. He gets to show up Eli. And, as an employee of the Keller Family Corporation, Warren can spend quality time with Eli's flirt-worthy sister, Avalon. (Avalon finds him repulsive but Warren thinks they're fated to be the super celeb couple, "Warvalon".) Snooping through Eli's room, Warren uncovers the invite to Trace Dupont-Roymont's super-exclusive upcoming party. He forces Dave to blow the whistle. The party gets cancelled. Trace blames Avalon and freezes her out of the Mac-Massey social whirl. Avalon and Eli plan to destroy Warren. He must be fired and fast. How? They convince Warren to be more Dave Keller-like than Dave. They know that will drive Dave nuts. After all, the Keller attic's only big enough for one Mr. Keller...

Eli and Avalon both promise Tracey Dupont-Roymont a ride to the new drive-in movie "First and Last Forever". Too bad neither of them has a license. Or a car. Avalon scours the Mac-Massey High yearbook for potential drivers. Eli enlists Dad's help to perfect his driving so he can take the road test (for the third time) and actually pass. It's not like he hasn't been to Driver's Ed. It's just that darn parallel parking issue. Can Eli learn how to drive with Dave's patented Keller Visualization technique? Well, no. Especially since Eli and Dave never get out of the driveway.

Eli suffers from an odd aroma. Okay, it's major B.O. With all that manly testosterone coursing through his system, Eli definitely needs more shower time. But hot water is a limited resource around the Keller house and Avalon calls shower dibs to prepare for her upcoming violin duet with the dreamy Josh Morris. Dad takes drastic measures to keep things fair. GPS anklets to monitor the Keller-ites' every move? He'll be able to ration the hot water AND know exactly what the Keller kids are up to 24/7. Now that stinks!

In a breathtaking display of speed eating, Eli devours the special roast intended for Tonia's boss, Mr. Peter Pennyman. Avalon freaks. Pennyman's coming to dinner tonight. If the dinner is a disaster Mom's career is over. Meanwhile, Dave calls a family meeting. Not knowing what Eli did, Dave declares that Eli is eating the Kellers into bankruptcy. So Dave creates The Keller Family Corporation Cost Management Committee to control household spending, and appoints Ronnie Keller as the Committee's manager. Dave and the kids need to come up with a new meal. And fast. Eli and Avalon could order takeout, but if they want money they'll have to go through Ronnie first. And Ronnie's tough. Strapped for cash the Keller kids have to work with what they've got in the house - Dad's secret stash of junk food. Will Tonia's boss be impressed by the Keller Kids' gut-wrenching, gross-out concoctions? Or will he just be grossed out?

Avalon is crushing on Cody Flowers. Too bad Cody can't remember her name. So Av drags Eli into a scheme to spend more time with Cody - in detention. When that fails, Avalon enlists Dad's help to make her unforgettable. Dave proposes to turn Avalon into a brand as famous as teen singing sensation Amanda Santa Anna. With Dave's launch of the Avalon Brand of Liquid Antibacterial Soap, Avalon ends up with more fame (and more detentions) than she ever bargained for. Meanwhile, Eli tries to ditch chem class to catch a movie with Caitlin. Unfortunately, now that his sister is famous, Eli can't make a move without Avalon's fans following him.

Eli wants the newest Silt hand-held gaming platform. Avalon yearns for the latest in text messaging, the Boysenberry, so she can keep up with Trace and her social circle. But gadgets cost green and there's only room in the Keller Family Corporation for one kid to get a raise in their allowance. To objectively decide which kid deserves more dough, Dave brings in The Consultant - Dakota Toyota. Eli thinks he has it made. After all, Dakota is his best bud. So Eli goofs off on all his chores. But Dakota takes his consulting job seriously and awards the raise to Avalon. Avalon gets the promotion in the Keller Corporation, her very own Boysenberry - and more responsibilities and chores than she ever wanted. She needs the Consultant to come back in and issue a new report for the Keller Family Corporation. Problem: Eli and Dakota are not talking. Can Avalon and Ronnie bring the buds back together?

It's the last week of school. Eli and his buds plot the annual Big Prank to humiliate Coach Haggis. Caitlin is in on the scheme but her goal is to make Eli see her as more than just "one of the guys". When Caitlin confesses crushing on Eli to Tonia, Dave overhears and intervenes with some business advice. To impress Eli, Caitlin's must "sell in depth" and win the approval of Eli's decision-making network (a.k.a the Keller family and Eli's buds). Then Eli's inner circle will sell Eli on her charms. That should be easy, especially since Dave and Tonia already love Caitlin. Avalon signs on to help if Caitlin lets her in on the Big Prank. But the more time Caitlin spends with the Kellers, the less romance she sees in Eli. And meanwhile Eli realizes that Caitlin is the girl of his dreams. Will all this teen drama mess up this year's Big Prank?
