A stray dog finds its way into the Tanner's back yard, so naturally DJ, Stephanie, and Michelle want to keep her. When the family discovers that she's pregnant and about to have puppies, she takes a liking to Jesse's room and ultimately has her puppies there. Upon locating the dog's owner, as a way to say thanks, he tells Danny that they can keep one of the puppies.

With Danny and Becky out of town working on an episode of their talk show, Jesse gets a visit from an old, wild friend named Pete Bianco. When Pete notices how much Jesse changed now that he's living with Danny, Joey, and his nieces, he gives Jesse some good natured ribbing. However, not liking Pete's tone, Jesse tries to prove he's the same fun-loving guy Pete remembers.
