Kat is the owner of a cat café looking to hire a new waitress after her best friend, Tara, leaves to pursue her dream of being a costume designer in New York. Meanwhile, her mother, Sheila, is never satisfied with her life and is constantly comparing herself to her friend who goes to the gym and looks amazing. Kat suggests that her mother join her at the gym to boost her confidence and help her feel better about herself. Sheila reluctantly agrees and, along with Kat and her gym enthusiast friend Phil, they embark on a journey to get in shape.
At the gym, they meet the gym owner and fitness instructor, Justin, who offers to help them with their fitness goals. Sheila is hesitant and struggles with the exercises, but Justin motivates her to push through and not give up. Kat and Phil, on the other hand, are loving the gym and all of the equipment. They get competitive with each other and try to one-up each other with weightlifting and other exercises. All the while, Justin is watching and snickering at their antics.
As they continue with their workouts, Sheila starts to feel left out and inadequate due to her lack of progress. She voices her concerns to Kat and Phil who assure her that progress takes time and that they are all proud of her for trying. Eventually, Sheila gains some confidence and begins to enjoy her time at the gym. She even starts to flirt with Justin, much to Kat and Phil's amusement.
Meanwhile, the café is short-staffed without Tara and Kat is struggling to keep up with the demands of the business. She hires a new waitress named Randi, who is quirky and interesting but not the best at her job. Kat tries to train her and help her improve, but Randi doesn't seem to be catching on. Eventually, Kat comes up with an idea to make Randi feel more comfortable and confident on the job. She suggests that they both wear silly cat ears while they work, and it ends up being a hit with the customers. Their playful attitude and new dress code bring in more business and make the café a fun and unique place to be.
As the episode comes to a close, Sheila decides to ask Justin out on a date and Randi improves her skills at the café. Kat and Phil continue to go to the gym and push each other to be their best selves. The episode ends with the group leaving the gym, feeling accomplished and happy.
