Claire prepares for her first real date since her husbands death and she is really nervous but so are the boys who fear that a new man will take over their dads place.

Joe and Lou agree to be "just friends" and date others, but Joe fumes when Lou's "other person" is someone he doesn't know -- and then he unwittingly asks out Lou's best friend.

Both Joey and Matt ask Andy's new baby sitter for a date. Meanwhile Lloyd gets a really big wig which everone is scared of. Also Lou looks forward too seeing her father but once again he does not show up. Or would he come after all?
