Surprised that the Pellets have no decoration at all just before Halloween, Matt hangs a witch on their door. Before his in-laws can undo that naive error, it rekindles an old rivalry among the street's five families for the most ornate house, rewarded with a local newspaper mention and picture. Even mat's well-meant words at a 'peace conference' hosted by Victor fails to avert another 'war'. Matt surprises the family by opting out, Marlene Alex by pointing out she should side with her husband, and he again.

Victor is delighted that Matt is out constantly for his intensive gastronomy course, but Alex gets insanely jealous when she discovers that his partner 'Danny' is in fact foxy Latina Daniela. With Marlene she pulls a scene, while even Victor admits Matt couldn't be dumb enough to be caught pants-down in the Pellet home. But Danny walked out, so Matt is greatly relieved when she agrees to remain course partners, but only if the homework venue shifts to her apartment. A misunderstood phone message sends Victor on a jealous check-up trip there, soon followed by his ladies, but the only vamp is libertine painter neighbor Sabrina, who fancies Victor.
