In the series opener, teenage Ruby reconnects with her dad, David, a pop star whose heyday was in the 1980s. David then seeks out his estranged brother and former bandmate, Patrick, who's now a suburban dad from whom David needs helps.

Jordan asks Ruby for a ride home from a keg party, but the only vehicle available is Patrick's new car, which Ruby is not allowed to drive. She decides that it is more important to help Jordan than to listen to the rules. The next morning Patrick is upset because he thinks David drove his car, due to alcohol smell and the drivers seat is meant to fit a person in a smaller size. Ruby convinces David to take the blame for Jordan and her. He apologizes to Patrick, and Patrick forgives him. Later, they watch David's interview. Upon describing Ruby, he says she a rebel, and a crazy person just like he was/is. He then proceeds to go into detail of how she stole his brothers car and saved her drunk cousin. Patrick ends up grounding Jordan for three weeks, Ruby for one.
