What Happened in Episode 4
In the previous episode, titled “Game Night,” things took a hilarious turn when a burst pipe flooded Janine’s apartment. With her place out of action, the group decided to hold their game night at Gregory’s home. However, Gregory’s super-organized personality quickly clashed with Janine’s easygoing vibe, leading to some awkward yet funny moments.
Meanwhile, Mr. Johnson was busy planning his trip to New Orleans but ran into trouble trying to get a Real ID. Joined by Ava, Barbara, and Melissa, his visit to the DMV was anything but smooth — ending in a classic Abbott Elementary twist that had fans laughing out loud.
