Cindy has been seeing Junior on the sly, but she can't help wondering if her loved ones will eventually catch on. The question remains: is this just a fling or could there be something more between them? Upon her return home, Cindy faces a barrage of questions from her family, particularly from Peter who wants to know why Bobby was promoted. Feeling overwhelmed, Peter turns to his sisters Lauren, Anna, and Gina for support as he vents about the situation.
Junior, on the other hand, knows that Peter is asking too many questions and decides to offer him a job in the hopes of keeping him occupied. Meanwhile, Elaine is concerned about her friend Linda, who has been struggling with a blackmail plot and has been spiraling out of control.
