Bernie and his wife, Wanda, reluctantly step into the role of parents when his sister drops off her three kids -- naive Bryanna, nerdy Jordan and teenager Vanessa -- en route to rehab. His views on child rearing are hardly politically correct, but Bernie tries his best.
When Bernie gives Vanessa money for school clothes, she decides to spend it all on an expensive pair of shoes.
Curtis offers to help fix Vanessa's new car, but Bernie thinks he has an ulterior motive.
While baby-sitting Bryana, Jordan watches a horror movie and scares himself into believing that zombies are trying to kill him and Bryana.
Wanda learns about Bernie's secret discipline-keeping device; its power corrupts her.
