Stephen and Mallory challenged Paul to a game of Puyo Puyo Tetris where Stephen completely lost. Stephen says that Paul is still really good at Puyo Puyo Tetris. Lindsey also joined and Stephen says that she played pretty well. They all went to go get lunch at Johnny D’s Waffles and Benedicts where it was really busy. Then, they realized that it was busy today because its Father's Day.

Back at home, Stephen says that Paul has to leave since he has to drive to the airport. Stephen says that they will see him again some time and they will play more board games the next time he visits.

They go to Stephen's parent's house after going out to dinner with them for a small bite to eat. Stephen says that they ate a lot at Johnny D's and his parents had a lot to eat at the House of Blues Gospel Brunch buffet, so they only ate a little bit for dinner. Steve received some paint samples from Utrecht from buying art supplies and canvases from Blick. Mal looks at the paint samples and says that they released a new red color that is cadmium-free. Debra asks if cadmium is dangerous and Stephen replies that cadmium can cause cancer. Mal then says that they discovered a new blue pigment called YInMn and she really wished she could get a whole tube of it. However, a small packet of that color would cost $20.

Stephen wishes his dad a Happy Father's Day. Steve replies saying that he is almost father time. He then shows some of the art that Steve painted to celebrate his wedding anniversary. One of them is a crescent moon painted on a rock that says "I love you to the moon and back". The second one is a silhouette painting of 2 birds kissing on a tree that says "You have my whole heart for my whole life". There is also a separate abstract painting that has a black background and white dots of various sizes painted on it.

Back at home, Stephen says that they will probably see Paul again at Thomas's party next month in Florida. Stephen then says that they bought some ice cream when Paul was still here. Austin, Lindsey and Dan also had some. On the way home from his parent's house, Mal suggested having root beer floats with the leftover ice cream. So, they stopped by a gas station to pick up some root beer. Stephen recommends trying IBC Root Beer and root beer on the tap. He says that he usually prefers drinking Coca-Cola or tea, but the the root beer you get on the tap at places like bars is really good.
