    Another fun-filled episode that sets the wheels in motion for a bunch of laughs and hysterics. Chris faces an impeachment hearing when the students at his school complain that he isn't living up to his promises, so Greg tries to help out. I liked the scene with the journalist and her office: they had to take off their shoes and cross their legs. HAHA!!! Rochelle's brother moves in after being kicked out by their mother, but it's more than Julius can take. Tonya asks Drew to show her how to "Double Dutch" but strings her along by making her do unecessary exercises. Then Chris teaches her first time but in the end she thanks Drew!moreless
