Plot: When Tom destroys Taylor and his friends during their basketball game, he reminisces about his childhoof playing days including beating a kid named Barry Obama whom Shubie informs him is now the President Obama. Tom takes the news hard, wondering what he has done with his life. When he runs into Kenny West dropping his daughter Candice off at Taylor's school, he invites him to drop her off for a play date which Kenny agrees to do that afternoon as he has other business to attend to. When Kenny brings Candice over, Taylor is thrilled to see her. When Tom forgets that Kenny will pick Candice up, Candice shows Tom where he works; as a server in a rap-themed restaurant. Tom also finds out they have been living in Kenny's car and invites them to move in the garage in a gesture intended to show up Barack Obama. Kenny decides to sell his rap record equipment and becomes a cable installer like Tom.

Taylor is thrilled with Candice's attention until she slowly becomes pushy. Kenny's emulation of Tom reaches the point of growing some big eyebrows and even looking like him when Tom loans him a shirt. Shubie makes Tom see that he has taken Kenny out of his element and Tom buys back all of Kenny's recording equipment and they write a new song. At first they have no luck in promoting their new song, but when a little girl falls down a well, they rush off to perform a benefit concert and their song takes off. When they reach success, Kenny dumps Tom. On a date with Candice, Walt and another friend of Candice, Taylor has had enough of Candice's attitude and leaves the girls behind at the restaurant with every other guy in the place. Tom tells Shubie about being fired by Kenny, but just then President Obama's helicopter lands on the front lawn and Obama challenges Tom to a game of basketball which he wins and the departs. Shubie tries to jump on board but is kicked off by the secret service.
