Emile and Masae are playing Super Smash Bros: Ultimate against each other. Stephen says that today they played some board games and some card games like Exploding Kittens, Dos, and Phase 10. He says that they are going to have dinner at a seafood buffet with his parents. Stephen mentions that they took Emile to this buffet when he last visited. Emile requested to eat at this place since he knew Masae would really like it.

They go to The Original Benjamin's Calabash Seafood Buffet. Stephen says that he usually eats crab legs, but this time he decided to get some grouper, salmon, and flounder. Emile thought Stephen was about to say "grouper and samurai". Emile mentions that Masae cries when food is tastes too good. Masae corrects him saying that she cries when she has good food, but can't eat anymore because she's full.

They return to Stephen's parent's house where Masae and Emile meet Rocko. Masae looks at Steve's painted canvases and rocks. Stephen and Mallory say that they really love the inverse silhouette painting in the shape of a deer with the night sky painted on it. Debra points out a rock painted with a winged heart with the name Joe on it. She explains that Steve painted it for Mary whose husband passed away 3 years ago and would've been 99 years old if he was still alive. Debra says that Mal really inspired Steve with her painting videos.

Afterwards, Emile gives Stephen's parents an Amazon Alexa. He explains to them some of the things they can do with it like ask it for steps in a cooking recipe. Steve says that function would be really useful especially for Debra. Debra says that Stephen will probably have to set it up for them though.

Back at home, Masae says that Rocko didn't really like her. Stephen explains that Rocko is a bit grumpier now that he's older. They then all go outside to look at the lunar eclipse.
