Tammy grows increasingly stressed by raising an infant alone, and becomes closer to a science teacher who took over her guidance counselor duties. Eric impresses his bosses with the way he handles a suspension meeting for an errant college player. Landry professes his love for Tyra, which is not really a surprise to her; their shared secret brings them closer together. Julie and Matt drift further apart as she tries to avoid feeling trapped. Matt copes with a new live-in assisted care giver as his grandmother's grip on reality slips further away.
