Dre is excited to announce that his company is offering paternity leave for fathers, but when he realizes that he is the only one taking advantage of it, he starts to feel self-conscious about being a stay-at-home dad. Meanwhile, Bow is struggling with the idea of being away from the house for so long and worries about leaving the kids with Dre. To help her feel more comfortable, Dre hires a manny to help out around the house. However, as the male nanny becomes more involved with the family, Dre starts to see him as a threat and wonders if he will be replaced as the primary caregiver. Along the way, the family deals with issues of masculinity, gender roles, and the importance of family time.
