All Grown Up!

- Season 4

(2005)

The Rats and their mothers embark on a cross country trip in a beat up R.V. to bring Susie to New York, where she's been selected to perform in a Thanksgiving parade. Generations collide, as the moms want to expose their kids to tourist attractions, but the gang wants to assert their growing independence.

Susie gets chosen to sing at a giant parade in New York City. The mothers opt to travel to New York cross country with their children-by R.V., to bond with them more.

In order to impress a pretty Jewish girl in his Hebrew school, Tommy lies to her by telling her that his father is a rabbi.

As Phil and Lil's birthday approaches, their plan for an epic party is abandoned after Phil sees Lil in her new training bra and has trouble dealing with their impending adolescence. He always considered girls "guys you can't punch," but now is seeing them in a new light. When the twins have separate birthday parties, they try to outprank each other.

Harold wants to ask Angelica to the Mardi Gras party but she only has eyes for Darryl. Susie plays Pygmalion until but this only leads to Harold starting to fall for Susie instead. This change of direction for Harold's emotions drives Angelica crazy and she drops all her feelings for Darryl in order to get Harold back.

When Charlotte is downsized out of her CEO position at MegaCorp, she reacts by attempting to become a supermom. She decides to be Angelica's best friend, enrolling them in several mother/daughter activities, resulting in endless embarrassments.

Just as Tommy feels a need for some personal space away from Dil, the Rats are sent to circus camp at the fabulous Cirque du Extravaganza. Dil is pegged to join the contortionists, who welcome him as one of their own, and he is invited to join them on the road.

At the megaplex, Angelica discovers that the Rats have snuck into a PG-13 movie, and plots her blackmail. They all end up trapped in the mall after closing, and are taking advantage of it when they discover that two crooks have chosen this time to rob the charity donation tower that Susie organized. Taking his cues from the action movie they saw, Chuckie leads the kids in capturing the bad guys.

Feeling neglected at home, Angelica goes to live with the Carmichaels for a week, thinking she will be appreciated there. But she discovers that they live by a strict, regimented schedule of chores, responsibilities, and schedules. When she learns that her peers are wagering whether or not she'll last there, Angelica becomes determined to be the best Carmichael she can be.

When Phil starts crushing on Lil's best friend, Wally, Lil ends up feeling out of the loop. After lying to Wally to break them up, only then does Lil realize how strong Phil's feelings really are and she needs to work hard to patch up both relationships.
