After the new camera Jeff installed confirms that he is wasting time and money, Jeff must decide if after so many chances he must finally fire Chris Elwood. Jeff is ready to move on and buy new properties and possibly promote New Chris into Elwood's position. Meanwhile, the tension has caused Jenny and Elwood to re-evaluate their relationship --outside of the office.

With Valley Oak taking so long to sell Jeff has reluctantly decided to go back to the historic restoration project. Back at home, the stress of being Jeff's only assistant is causing the "New Chris" to have his own "flip-out."

New problems arise when Jeff discovers that one of his projects is completely over budget. Not only does Jeff have to deal with this new issue, he also still has to deal with the problems with his staff.
