Ethan and Robbie become over-protective of Ginger when a boy calls the house for her. Ginger maintains that Heath is just a friend, but they don't like the idea of any boy calling their cousin. In an act of defiance, Ginger invites Heath over for the day, but now Ginger is worried that Heath will get the wrong idea. Is this a date? Is Heath a boyfriend or just a friend who's a boy? Penny's rooting for boyfriend! Meanwhile, Chris takes a very grown-up journey to get sugar from a neighbour. What he doesn't know is that Matt has dressed up as a bush to keep tabs on him. While Aunt Corey and Uncle Bob worry about Chris, they work on their own distractions. Aunt Corey tries to perfect her aunt Carole's biscuits and uncle Bob works on perfecting his homemade lemonade.

Matt and Chris share a birthday and always have a big joint party. But with Matt turning 18 and Chris still being a 'grown-up', this looks like the year that everything changes. Matt asks if he can spend his big day in town with his mates and Chris doesn't want a little kid party. Aunt Corey enlists uncle Bob to help her throw Chris a party that will change him back to being the silly kid he is inside. Ginger has a different plan for finding the old Chris. Robbie and Ethan are kicked out of the house after one of their birthday pranks catches aunt Corey off guard. They use the time to track down a dead goat that is allegedly near the old barn. They think it will be cool, but when they find it the moment has a much deeper effect than they expected.
