In the first part of the episode, "Kicked Out," Kick's reckless behavior gets him into trouble at home. After accidentally setting the living room on fire, his parents decide that enough is enough and Kick is grounded. Feeling trapped and frustrated, Kick is determined to find a way out of his punishment. He attempts to sneak out of the house, but his little sister Brianna catches him and rats him out to their parents.

Determined to get his way, Kick concocts a series of schemes to try and break free from his grounding. He tries hiding under his bed, tunneling out of his room, and using a grappling hook to climb out of his window. However, each of his plans fails, and he ends up getting into more trouble than before. Eventually, he realizes that his reckless behavior has consequences and decides to make amends for his actions.

The second part of the episode, "Kick the Habit," focuses on Kick's attempt to break a bad habit. Kick's constant need for adrenaline leads him to develop a habit of thumb-sucking. Embarrassed and wanting to break the habit, Kick turns to his friend Gunther for help. Gunther suggests that Kick replace his thumb-sucking habit with a new, less embarrassing habit.

Together, they come up with the idea of collecting bottle caps. Kick becomes obsessed with the new hobby and starts collecting caps everywhere he goes. His quest for bottle caps leads him to some unusual places, including the town dump. Meanwhile, his former habit of thumb-sucking becomes a distant memory. However, just as he thinks he's kicked the habit for good, he realizes that collecting bottle caps has become just as unhealthy an obsession as thumb-sucking.
