♪ ♪

Your mamma
finally got a job, Levi.

Whoo! She is teaching
young inventors

on a cruise ship
in the Caribbean

for two months. Ha-ha!

Two months of unlimited access

to the midnight buffet and
all the crab legs she could eat.

If it makes you feel any better,

she doesn't even like crab legs.

Two months. Unlimited.

Levi, are you sure you're okay?

Sure you don't
want to go with her?

No, I don't want to leave
school and Booker and Nia.

And auntie Rae, you're
like a second mom to me.

Aw, thank you, Levi.

Hey, do you think your first mom

could overnight me
some of them crab legs?

You okay, auntie Rae?

I feel like you're
hiding something

behind all the crab leg talk.

Oh, no, no, no. I'm fine, Levi.

I mean, I'm gonna miss your mom

but I can handle it.

Well, that's good to hear

because she really
couldn't have left

at a worse time for you.

You know, starting
your own business,

trying to hire an
assistant, driving the SCÜT.

Nothing I can't handle.

And now you're taking over
my mom's responsibilities.

Doing the laundry,
cleaning the apartment...

Levi, what are you doing?

Making our lunches,
helping us with homework...

Levi, what are you doing?

Oh! I'm reading off
of my mom's chore list.

Which I guess is
your chore list now.

♪ ♪

Look how many
things are on this list.

- Hey, mom.
- Hey.

Hey. How'd the drop-off
with aunt Chelsea go?

Terrible.

I dropped off my best
friend and I gained a list.

I used to think
Chelsea did nothing.

It turns out, she
did everything.

You know, auntie Rae,
if it makes things easier,

us kids can do all the
chores on my mom's list.

Did he just say
what I think he did?


Thank you, second son.

Did she just
say what I think she did?


Look, mom. We'd
really love to help you

but Tess and I are in
the middle of setting up

this little free
library for the lobby.

Yeah, and Levi and I are in
the middle of a drone battle

with Curtis and the Guntz
from our roof to their roof.

A drone battle?

Yeah. We keep dropping
water balloons on each other

but they're still way ahead.

We gotta score some points.

Good. Levi's back on our side.

But that doesn't mean
we can't do chores.

Why is he still talking?

Hey, mom. This
is a really long list.

Yeah, that's why
I'm giving it to you.

I got a list of my own
stuff I gotta get done.

Well then it's a
good thing I'm here.

- Grandpa!
- Dad!

What are you doing here?

Well, when you told me
that Chelsea was leaving,

I figured you could use
an extra set of hands.

Grandpa can do our chores!

And grandpa's not
doing your chores.

Have you always done that?

Nope. It's new.

Your mom
wanted me to get a hobby.

There it is.

Look, dad. See, I needed help

starting my own
business so I put an online ad

for an assistant
and I just got another no.

Hmm. An assistant?

I'll tell you what,
'til you find one, I'm your guy.

Really, dad? Really?

Okay, so I have to
warn you. It doesn't pay anything.

It's just an internship.

You can pay me in hugs.

Deal. I got
a SCÜT shift right now.

You know what? You
can answer emails while I drive.

Uh, not
without a little advance.

Okay, give me a little hug.

Okay, daddy. Okay, come on.

We can't let mom steal grandpa.

We need him to do our chores

so we can get back
to our drone battle.

And our little free library.

What? Nia, nobody's
saying we have to do that.

No one but the nation.

It's national book month, Tess.

And we said that we
were gonna do this together, right?

Yeah, totally.

It'll be fun.

Not as fun as a drone battle.

Bye, kids!

Oh, wait, wait!

Um, mom. You can't take grandpa.

Uh, yeah. We need him.

For what?

Chores.

Hugs!

Okay, all right.
Hug time's over.

Hug time's over.
He's coming with me.

He's my daddy. All right?

- Bye.
- Later.

Great.

We leave you alone with
her for one car ride, Levi.

And now, we're stuck with this.

I know.

But my mom had just left,

and I wasn't thinking straight.

Oh, no, no. It's okay,
Levi. Don't get upset.

Yeah, we don't blame you.

Wow, I can't
believe that worked.


I can't wait to see
your new office, Rae.

Uh, dad. You do know that
my office is my SCÜT car, right?

Your office has cup holders.

No. It doesn't actually.

I get a lot of
complaints about that.

Hey! Is your dog wearing
a Paisley studio design?

Yes! Basil and I love
Paisley's designs.

I wish they made
them in my size.

- Oh-kurrr.
- Oh-kurr.

Well, I just want
to let you know

that um, I... I designed that.

We're supposed to believe
you're Raven Baxter?

It's true. I'm her dad.

And we're supposed to believe
you're Raven Baxter's dad?

We'll just look up a photo
of Raven Baxter online and...

I... speak... can't.

No, we will not take
a selfie with her, basil.

I can't believe all the
laundry machines are taken.

Maybe we could
just fold them anyway.

Mom won't even
know they're dirty.

I'm pretty sure she will.

What? They can't be that...

How bad could it possibly...

Oh, that's not even human!

I guess we're just
gonna have to wait

for the laundry
machines to free up.

Oh, no!

Uh-oh.

I just had a vision.

Curtis and the Guntz are
gonna att*ck us again.

What? That's not good.

We've gotta strike
first or else they win.

Nia, we don't have time
to wait for those machines.

There's gotta be a
faster way to wash these.

How?

Come on!

Hey, dad.

Can you take this really fast?

Can you check and see,
as my temporary assistant,

if I got any new
responses for my ad.

I already got
people that said no.

Don't worry. I'm on it.

Ooh, this is fancy.

I got a flip phone.
Love the flip.

Flip is like the future.

Uh... Dad, you just
deleted an email.

Oh, my bad.

Um. Maybe it's this button.

No, now you're
just sending stuff.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Maybe I should use two thumbs.

Um, you... you don't
have a cup holder.

Now I see why you're
getting complaints.

Here, Rae. Hold this.

No, dad. I'm trying
to make a turn.

My temporary
assistant apologizes.

It's his first day.

Uh-oh. She's mad.

Eye-twitching mad.

Whoo! We did it!

All right. Smell test.

Okay.

Mountain fresh.

Ha!

I believe a
celebration is in order.

I think so. All right.

To clean laundry.

Oh, no, no, no. It's
turning the water pink.

We're never gonna get these
clean before mom gets back.

Uh-oh.

Can't we just tell her the truth

and say we spilled some juice?

Your mom got mad
at me for spilling juice.

Eye-twitching mad.

Nah, we can't tell her
we spilled the juice.

So, grandpa. What do you think?

Nothing that a
little bleach can't fix.

That's how I keep
my tighty-whities white.

So, can you help us or not?

That's what grandpas are for.

I'll you what.

Why don't you guys
go and have some fun?

I'll clean all this up

and I'll finish all the
rest of the chores

on this list.

Thanks, grandpa.

That's what grandpas are for.

You said that already.

Grandpas also repeat things.

This means that Tess and I

can go put our free
library in the lobby.

Come on, Tess. Let's
go get our library on.

Did she just say
"get our library on"?


And you and I can
head to the roof.

It's drone battle time.

Drone battle?

Notice he didn't
pop in on free library.


Yep. A drone battle.

I'm in.

What? But you said you'd
clean up before mom gets home.

Your mom's SCÜT shift
won't be over for hours.

I say att*ck now, clean later.

Hello? Hello? Are you
calling about my job listing?

Great, great! Yeah... oh.

Well, um, no, no.

I'm not paying minimum wage.

Oh no, oh no. I'm
paying maximum wage.

Yeah. Well, that means
the maximum I can pay.

How much?

Well, uh, ha,
there's a lot of zeros.

In fact, it's all
zeros... hello?

Okay. Books are in.

Do you really think
people are gonna know

what a little free library is?

Ooh! Little free library.

He knows.

Boring... boring. Boring!

Ooh. "Hemlines
through the ages"?

You should take it.

Oh, I'm gonna.

Did you know the hemline
is the historical cornerstone

upon which women's
fashion is built?

This book belongs
to Raven Baxter?

Yeah. Yeah, I know.
It's my mom's book.

Raven Baxter's your mom?

Uh, yeah. Yeah maybe you
can actually meet her sometime.

Stop it.

I'm gonna read
this cover to cover.

Oh, wait! Sorry.

Take a book, leave a book.

Oh, sorry. I'm just so frazzled.

Here, take that.

I can't wait to show basil.

Basil!

See, Tess. We're
saving the nation.

Whatever you say, Nia.

Oh no! Curtis and the Guntz

are almost done filling
their water balloons.

Don't worry.

Those guys only
have water balloons.

We have guac, salsa,
and marinara balloons.

Ha-ha!

That's what they get for
messing with chef Victor.

Booker, what are you doing?

Sorry. I didn't have lunch.

Yes, yes. That's right.

Maximum wage means no pay.

No, no, no. No, no, no.

You don't hang up
first. I hang up first.

Okay, hi. I'm your
SCÜTer, Raven.

Welcome to your SCÜT ride.

Thank you so much
for picking me up.

I just quit my job
and I could not

get out of there fast enough.

- Ooh!
- It was a circus.

Ha-ha! Girl.

I've had some jobs that
were total circuses too.

No, I literally
worked for the circus.

My boss was a clown.

Honey, I get it. I've had
some bosses that were clowns.

He was literally a clown.

I hate clowns.

You couldn't pay me
enough to do that job.

Please. They were
paying me peanuts.

I've had some jobs
where the pay was...

No! Literally peanuts.

So um, you're okay
working for free?

Yes, because I was
getting college credit

for my business class.

Hey! Hey.

What would you say
about getting college credits

for, like, an exciting
upstart fashion company?

Well, I need to
see the workspace.

You know, make sure it's a neat,
clean, professional environment.

Like, am I gonna have to share
a desk with a bearded lady?

Well not today, girl.

Take a book, leave a book?

Hi. Take a book, leave a book?

Tess. What are we gonna do?

I'd so much rather
be in that drone battle.


Just tell her the truth.

She'll understand.

I gotta go to the bathroom.

Hey, Nia!

We heard you have a
little free library over here.

You did? You know,
it's national book month.

And that's why we're
gonna take all of your books.

Great! Take them, please.

Uh, but you guys know you've
got to take books, leave books.

Don't worry. You'll get
these back soon enough.


Well, there's
only one book left.

And it's not even a book.

It's Sebastian's notebook.

Hey.

This is actually really good.

Well, here we are. At my very
professional work environment.

I hope so because
I like you, Raven,

and I think we
could be a good fit.

I've almost got her. Yes!

Ooh. Someone's gonna get it.

- Is something wrong?
- No, no, no.

Nothing's wrong
at all. Actually, um...

My very efficient clean-up crew

just needs a
little bit more time.

And while I'm
checking in on them...

Why don't you, um...

Why don't you check out
my home rooftop office?

It's amazing. Go check it out.

It's open air, natural lighting.

Up, up. Up, up, up.

Go. Keep going.

Okay now.

Dad! Kids!

Are you serious?

Pink clothes? A kiddie pool?

Ooh, a whole lot of
people are gonna get it.

♪ ♪

- Booker.
- What?

Stop eating the a*mo.

Well, I tied some.

It's like Nia's library.

You tie some, you eat some.

But we only made
four balloons. Come on!

Hurry.

Curtis and the Guntz' drones
will be here any minute.

Uh-oh.

Tess, if you didn't want
to do the library with me,

why didn't you just tell me?

'Cause I'm scared of you.

'Cause I wanted to
be supportive of you.

Incoming!

Bob and weave, kids.

Don't let the enemy
get a fixed target.

These are my books
from the library.

They're dropping my books.

They destroyed all of our a*mo.

They won.

Well, they didn't have
any of my grandpa's guac.

So did they really win?

Just wave the white flag.

Son, no one is giving up today.

We still have one last
guacamole balloon.

Now, their drones
may be quicker,

they may not be bogged
down with stamina issues,

or arthritic knees,

or sudden onset vertigo,

but we have something
they will never have.

Too much information
about your health?

We're a family.

And families don't
ever let anyone quit.

They rally.

Now hand me that remote.

Go, grandpa!

- Guac att*ck.
- Go get 'em.

Uh, guys.

Why is it coming right for us?

Hey. Hey, hey, grandpa.

Turn it around.
You're losing control.

I'm trying. I don't just
have arthritic knees.

My thumbs are pretty bad too.

Here it comes.
Everybody take cover.

Oh no! My vision.

Hey. I got tea downs...

What's going on?

This is worse than when
the elephant hosed me down.

It's like I'm at the circus.

- I can't go back.
- No, no, no.

- I can't.
- Andrea, this isn't...

- I won't.
- No, no, no.

- It's okay.
- No!

Do you know who that was?

That was... The
only person I found...

Who was gonna be my assistant

and work for free.

Mom, I'm sorry we ruined...

No, no, no. No, no, no.

Don't even worry about
it. You know what? Just...

Just stay on this roof
and play your little games

instead of doing
what I asked you to do.

I'm never gonna ask you to do
anything else. You know what?

I am waving the white flag.

- Yes!
- We win!

We really did it
this time, guys.

Yep.

Hey, guys. I think I have a
way to make this right for mom.

I do too.

Wow.

Who did you get to
come in here and clean...

Me, dad. Me.

Me, I did it. You know why?

'Cause if I want
something done right,

I'm gonna have to do it myself.

You know...

It's not enough that I'm
trying to start my own business

and keep up with SCÜT,

but I also have
to raise two kids,

and I got another one on loan.

And knock, knock, surprise!

Who is it? I got a fourth.

Okay. I deserve that.

My bad, dad. My bad, dad.

I just feel like I'm
always juggling stuff,

trying to make it
work, you know?

Andrea's worried about
working for a circus.

My life is a circus.

I get it.

When I first
opened the chill grill,

I was raising a family,

and I was juggling
everything too.

I'm still dropping balls.

Well it seemed like
you always made it work.

Maybe that's how it
looked to you, but...

I'm still dropping everything.

I came out here to help you

and I can't even get that right.

You don't have
to apologize, dad.

I'm not apologizing.

Rae, the point is...

No parents are perfect.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

And, ha-ha!

No kids are perfect.

Don't be so hard on them.

And besides, Chelsea
just left this morning.

This morning?
Feels like a month.

Give the kids some time.

And then, give
yourself some time.

Don't wave the
white flag just yet.

You're right, dad.

I won't.

Thank you.

- I love you.
- I love you too, baby.

Hey, mom.

What do you three want?

We just wanted to say we
know we really messed up.

Yeah.

We were selfish.

So, if you still have that list,

we'd really like to
do those chores.

For real this time.

That would be helpful.

- Thank you.
- Of course.

And we know you
think you lost out

on finding that
perfect assistant,

but we might have found
you an even better one.

All right, come on in.

Come on. Remember?

Raven.

Sebastian, tell my mom
about the master's program

you're in at the
Chicago fashion institute.

I market clothes good.

Okay, kids, come here.

Let me talk to you. Come here.

Um, he can't even
complete a sentence.

I appreciate the help
but thank you, no.

Mom. Mom, please
just read, okay?

Look at his notebook.

He has a whole plan on how to
launch an upstart fashion company.

You did this?

I market clothes good.

Okay, listen. You look really
good on paper, but in person...

- Work free.
- You're hired. Welcome to ravenous.

- I got the job?
- Unpaid.

I'm working for Raven Baxter.

For free.

I can't wait to get started.

I'm thinking photo sh**t.

I'm gonna make
you huge on Quiksnap

and we're gonna
monetize those posts.

Do you have a business plan?

Never mind. I have one.

Let's sync our calendars

so I can start scheduling
meetings with investors.

Then interviews, then... Oprah.

I'm so excited.

Ooh, I need some bubbly water.

Why is there a kiddie
pool full of wet clothes in here?

Never mind. I'll clean it up.

We got it.
