The show begins on a sad note where the wife of Danny is killed in an accident. At the moment, he is confused and ends up seeking help from his brother and his best friend. Nostalgia is first indicated when the girls are excited to meet Uncle Joey, who they have not met before and did not know. The fact that he is a stranger to them and has to move into the house gives the girls a feeling of anxiousness as they await his arrival. The uncles join the family and bring along the habit of playing video games which keeps the household busy at times as well as help them in bonding during the times that they spend playing. The games are addicted to a point that all adults play Michelle’s video games when she goes out.
Life in the home is filled with happiness at the house. There is a great show of love from the brother and the friend.

The episodes go on to display the theme of romance where the couple ends up with their twin boys to join the girls.
