Ep 4. Daddy In Overdrive

In the One on One season 2 episode 4 entitled "Daddy In Overdrive," we see the beloved father-daughter duo of Flex and Breanna embark on some new challenges. In this episode, Flex starts to assume more responsibility with his role as both a father and a coach.

The episode begins with Flex's coaching skills being put to the test. When Breanna's new friend Tiffany is not playing up to her full potential on the basketball court, Flex steps in to motivate her. In doing so, he learns that Tiffany's dad is pushing her to play, rather than letting her passion for the game come naturally. This is a lesson that Flex takes to heart when he starts coaching Breanna's team, leading him to adopt a more laid-back approach.

Outside of basketball, Flex is also learning to balance his work and personal life. He is being stretched in all directions, with his TV show, "One on One with Flex," taking up a significant amount of his time. Meanwhile, Breanna is struggling with schoolwork and is finding herself in need of her dad's help more often. Flex is eager to help, but having so much on his plate, it becomes difficult to fulfill all his responsibilities.

As if things weren't chaotic enough, Flex's ex-wife Tonya re-enters the picture. Tonya shows up unannounced, with her current partner in tow, and is desperate for some time alone with Breanna. However, Flex is hesitant to allow Tonya to take too much of Breanna's time, considering her track record of being flighty and unreliable.

With all these challenges piling up, Flex turns to his own father for advice. Together, they discover that even the most well-intentioned of dads can end up causing more harm than good if they try to take on too much. In the end, both Flex and Breanna come to learn some valuable life lessons.

"Daddy In Overdrive" is a heartwarming episode that shows the importance of taking a step back and learning to delegate responsibilities when necessary. It is a reminder that even the most well-meaning of dads can become overwhelmed and that sometimes putting in less effort can be the best thing for everyone involved. With its relatable characters and timeless themes, this episode is a standout in the second season of One on One.
