Sometimes Full House gets lucky and the adults actually have to put their feet down. There's actually consequences. In sitcoms and reality shows, it is always great to see a brat get discipline.
Joey is left home alone with the girls for a night which happens to be when Tiffany will be doing a live show in Tokyo. They egg him into letting them stay up to watch her. Danny catches them and Joey admits he doesn't want to be the bad guy. Jesse and Danny both encourage him to be firm. The next night, DJ forgets to phone home to say that her karate class went out to eat. Joey is worried. When DJ comes home without a care in the world, Joey grounds her. That means she will miss her next tournament. Being the spoiled brat she is, she holds a grudge with Joey completely failing to see her wrongs. He wants to unground her but Danny and Jesse agree Joey did the right thing.
Like more family sitcoms, actually with most TV episodes in general, the ending is wrapped up much too quickly with a typical family formula. Congrats writers, you just ruined a great episode. DJ finally comes to her senses and Joey moves her grounding to after her tournament. Bad move. You give them an inch, they take a mile.
