The Hobbs family holds a grudge against David's former TV son Ricky Adams, who seemed to have forgotten about them after making his own musical career, but only Emily meanly holds out when he sweetly comes make up. Ricky ends up her secret weapon in the class president election, where she stands against David's adult arch-rival Ted McGinley's charming son Xander, with the fathers taken charge of a campaign war, although the kids actually get along.
