Shania finally crosses stuff off her California Dreams Bucket List. The guys are trying to help out Goldie make Shania feel a bit less tense after they find out last episode that the court is ordering them to move back to Ohio. Bryan and David pretty much oblige upon seeing how happy Shania is, after all the custody drama her dad just bombed in on her mom. Bryan and David offers to help out as they got Goldie a good family lawyer to represent them in the custody case. Unfortunately, as much as Bryan wants Goldie to stay, David reminds him that David's mom is coming (cue eye roll from Bryan).
Goldie learns that like her, Bryan is not in good terms with the MIL as well. She thought it was just a straight thing, until Bryan tells her of her MIL issues and Goldie concludes that it's actually a universal nightmare. David defends his mom, saying that Bryan may have been exaggerating as his mom is amazing. So he invites Goldie to stay with them for dinner. He plans on telling his mother about the baby and decides that they'd introduce her too.
Meanwhile, Nana Jane is drowning her sorrows away at a bar, drinking chardonnay. She meets a man whom she finds a connection with and he buys her a drink. They talked and later on does the nasty in her hotel room.
David and Bryan meets with Frances, David's mom, and they introduce her to Goldie. She finds out that she's gonna be a grandma by a surrogate and welcomes Goldie into the family. She immediately asks who's sperm it is and finds relief upon knowing it was David's and not Bryan's sperm.
That night, they had a fight about David's mom. Bryan feels terrible about Frances' attitude towards him, and David being blind how awful she treats Bryan. David thinks that they have to stop their "contest" and work things out.
Jane consults David, being an OB-Gyn, about her problems in her nether region. She confesses about having sex with a man. He explains that what she felt that night is an--wait for it--orgasm. Yes, she just had her first one after all those years. She's 39, by the way. Oh snap!
At the park, they have a picnic-slash-Shania's-quincinera, and introduces Frances to everyone. She meets Goldie's family--Shania and Nana Jane and starts to enjoy the company of Shania and Goldie. David talks about Jane her previous consult. He assures her that what she's feeling is normal and that she should embrace it.
Jane doesn't wanna talk with David about it because he's male and because he's gay. David then respects her request and suggests she still talks to someone about it. He offers his mom to talk to her about it. He thinks that would help since they're almost the same age and she'd know what she's going through. That night, Nana Jane brings her cougar on.
After the deed, Jane was so pumped she thought of going out with the guy she met at the bar. Unfortunately, he tells her that he just wanted to bang her. It's not his intention to go out and date her, leaving Jane sad and broken in her hotel room.
At home, Bryan and Frances think of working out their differences. They talked at the kitchen when things have gone awry. Bryan speaks out his issues with her. Frances was so furious, she brought out Bryan's mommy issues on the plate and leaves.
Over dinner, Frances cooks Wild Pacific Salmon with Wasabi Creme Fresh for Shania's "authentic California cuisine" item on her bucket list. Frances says she'll give the best, and most flavorful part to her son, and places it on Bryan's plate. The couple was surprised with her gesture, making Bryan feel special and happy about making good with the MIL. Unfortunately, Shania ingested a fair amount of wasabi that she threw up.
Jane comes in and tells Frances about her advice blowing up in her face--and well, the wasabi hurting Shania's stomach. To her defense, Goldie butts in and tells her that Shania is living her life and so should she. That she made a bucket list of things to do and fearlessly did all of it without hesitation--something neither Goldie nor Nana Jane has ever done. That it made Goldie not regret the things she has done in the past--only the things that she never got to do.
Jane took Goldie's word and went back to the hotel. She approached the guy she slept with at the bar and interrupted his flirting with another cougar at the bar, saying that he missed his daughter's first birthday. Pretty clever revenge, if you ask me! And then she thanks him for teaching her to start her life all over. She leaves with a new boy toy, to the guy's shock.
Back at home, David tells Bryan that his mom is now on her way to Napa. Bryan admits that what Frances did at dinner made him feel special. Although, he can't guarantee being best friends with her anytime soon. David leaves for bed and Bryan calls his estranged mom.
