Ep 13. For Sale By Owner

The Partridge Family season 3 episode 13, titled "For Sale By Owner," follows the storyline of the family attempting to sell their beloved home and relocate to a bigger one since they have outgrown their current residence. However, selling a home is never as easy as it seems, and the family faces several challenges throughout the episode.

The episode opens with Shirley Partridge, the mother of the family, excitedly showing off their home to prospective buyers. However, it quickly becomes apparent that the potential buyers are less than impressed with the outdated décor and lack of modern amenities. Shirley and her kids are forced to reevaluate their home and decide to put in some much-needed upgrades to make it more appealing.

While the family works on updating their home, they also struggle with the emotional attachment they have to it. This is especially true for Danny Partridge, the youngest member of the family, who has grown up in the house and has many fond memories there. Danny is resistant to the idea of moving, and his siblings and parents must work to help him come to terms with the change.

As the family prepares for an open house, a couple shows up unannounced and expresses interest in buying the house immediately. While this is exciting news for the Partridges, they soon realize that the couple is more interested in the fact that the house is a fixer-upper, and they plan on flipping it for a profit. This revelation leads to a tense confrontation between the family and the couple, and the realization that finding the right buyer will be harder than they initially thought.

Throughout the episode, the family also deals with various mishaps and setbacks, including a broken dishwasher, a leaking roof, and a mischievous skunk that invades their home. These obstacles threaten to derail the family's plans to sell their home, but they persevere and find creative solutions to each problem.

Ultimately, the Partridge Family learns important lessons about the value of home and family and the difficulties of letting go of the past. As they prepare to say goodbye to their beloved home, they realize that the memories they have created there will last a lifetime, and that no amount of money can replace the love and camaraderie they share as a family.
