Debra and Ray are sleeping when they are woken up by the bright lights of Frank's motion sensor. The next morning they're annoyed because it's early in the morning and Frank is making alot of noise woodworking in his garage. Ray says he gave Frank "The Big Book of Hobbies" so that he'd quit coming over, but now he's becoming even more of a nuisance at his house. One of the neighbors calls Ray and wants to come over and have a meeting about Ray's parents.

At the meeting they want Ray to talk to his parents about all the noise they've been making. Ray tries to defend his parents, but the neighbors are threatening to get Frank and Marie kicked out of the neighborhood. One of the neighbors shows a video of Frank getting the mail. One of the clips shows Frank naked. At that point Frank and Marie walk in. They see the video and realize it's Frank. Frank and Marie think Ray has betrayed them by holding the meeting, and they storm out of the house.

Ray can't sleep becasuse he feels guilty. The next day he goes to his parents house, where they have prepared a table full of sandwiches. Frank and Marie say they're fine, but still act stand-offish toward Ray. They throw a party for the neighbors and make Ray leave. Ray continues to feel guilty, so he goes to a priest for confession. The priest tells him he shouldn't feel guilty. When Ray tells him that Frank and Marie are his parents, the priest immediately forgives him. Ray goes back to his parents to tell them off, but he just ends up apologizing instead.
