Plot

Lucy begins to disconnect more from the family as she's spending more time at the movies everyday alone at the promenade. She finds some solace with theater usher, T-Bone, who she feels able to talk to about her feelings. Meanwhile, Annie consoles a distraught Kevin and tells him to talk to Lucy. When Kevin finds out what's been going on between Lucy and T-Bone he is less than thrilled. Meanwhile, Sam and David's second grade teacher, Ms. Margo flirts with Eric when dropping the boys off to school, which makes Eric very uncomfortable. Eric also finds out that Sam and David have been referring him as their "Grandpa" instead of their father to their teacher. And Martin misinterprets Kevin's advice of cooking dinner for Sandy, when he hopes that the meal will help seduce her.
