Danny arrives home from work, and notices that the girls are in a bad mood because they haven't had a good day. Neither has Joey, who would rather forget that day's "Ranger Joe" episode. Danny suggests that they take a little time off from this stress and go out as a family for "Tanner Family Fun Night". Jesse and Becky stay at home with Nicky and Alex. Danny and Joey and the girls go to a pirate themed seafood restaurant, where D.J. is afraid she'll be embarrassed in front of her classmate Shelly Phillips, who is also at the restaurant, and Joey and the girls seem to get a little more bitter, but they lighten up when they are forced to "walk the plank" -- right into a pit full of balls. Meanwhile, at home, Jesse and Becky are having a disagreement as to how Nicky and Alex should be raised, and complicating things is the fact that Alex is sick and has a fever for the first time in his life.
