The Bill Cosby Show season 2 episode 2, entitled "Open House," follows Cliff and Clair Huxtable as they work to sell their old family home. In an effort to entice buyers, they decide to hold an open house event, inviting potential buyers and their realtors to come and view the property.

As the day of the open house approaches, the Huxtables find themselves facing a number of challenges. Their younger children, Vanessa and Rudy, are less than thrilled about the prospect of moving and are worried about leaving behind their childhood home. Meanwhile, their eldest daughter Sondra is struggling to balance her law school studies with the demands of her new job.

To make matters worse, the Huxtables have also recently hired a new housekeeper, Mrs. Westlake, who is proving to be more trouble than she's worth. Despite the family's best efforts to make her feel welcome, Mrs. Westlake seems intent on causing chaos in the household, leaving the Huxtables to wonder if they made a mistake in hiring her.

As the open house gets underway, the Huxtables find themselves dealing with a variety of potential buyers, each with their own unique quirks and demands.
