Reba in a heated discussion finally admits to the Reverend that she too has had her doubts.

Reba loves to make fun of Barbra Jean but vows to suck it up for Kyra's sake; however her plan backfires during Jakes birthday party when Barbra Jean starts thowing out a few insults of her own. Meanwhile, Brock shows up to the party fresh from his first Botex treatment.

When Van and Cheyenne reconcile with Van's parents, Reba feels threatened by the extravagant gifts they shower on baby Elizabeth and the situation soon escalates into a competition over who are the better grandparents. Meanwhile, Cheyenne has difficulty adjusting to life now that Van has returned to the football team and has little time to spend with her.

Kyra's fine grades in social studies have earned her an invitation to study in England for the summer, but when Cheyenne announces that she must attend summer school to remain a full-time student, Reba discovers that her financial situation will only allow her to assist one of the girls. And it seems like good news when Brock and Barbra Jean announce that they are moving, until Reba finds out that the house they plan to buy is just around the corner.

Realizing that his wife, Barbra Jean (who was pregnant in real life at the time this episode was taped), has taken up eating as a hobby and gained quite a bit of weight as a result, Brock consults Reba on how best to handle the delicate situation.
