Brad throws a Halloween party for his new friends at school while Tim, Jill, Al, and Ilene attend a cable awards show. The Tool Time cast hopes to win an award, but it appears that Cooking with Irma will sweep the event as it has every other year.

When Wilson is buglarized, Jill orders Tim to put in a high security system. But instead of them having peace and quite in their house, things get worse when the alarms begin going off by themselves.

Tim tells Randy to go for Lauren, who likes cars, but he finds out she is dating Jason, Brad's friend.

Brad gets a part-time job at a sporting goods store and work soon becomes his top priority.
