    Here a girl, is trying to impress her father, while not even living with him, and trying to organize this huge Father-Daughter dance, adn its like he almost misses it, and he gets the concept all wrong a he dances for Ruby. I didn't think this episode was too great, juist a filler in my opinion. Then the worst uncle. "Dumped on my doorstep" is no way to talk about your niece. The one who is living with you. Also the cousin crush thing is kind of annoying, and gross, since its incest, so I think they should drop that whole plotline, since it is called abc FAMILY.moreless

    This show is amazing. It really is truly amazing. Its so funny and Alexa Vega is amazing as Ruby. Her plus her two cousins are magic. Patrick and David Cassidy are amazing and make this show greater. Patrick's wife is great too. The cast is defintely top notch and the writing is spectacular. ABC Family defintely has found a hit with this comedy block of "10 Things" and "Ruby". They are both hilarious. In this episode Ruby coordinates a father daughter dance at school but David is no where to be found and Ruby covers for him so Patrick won't kill him. And I loved when Patrick and Ruby were dancing then David came out and started singing and dancing. haha. such a hilarious episode and show. "FREESTYLE!" "AHHHH!!" HAHAmoreless

    • Ben: Maybe we should tell mom and dad. Ruby: No! If uncle Patrick finds out that David's blowing me off he will kill him. Jordan: Well, won't you kinda want to kill him? Ruby: Yes, and if your dad does it first I won't be able to. Edit
    • Jordan: Chicks around here dig me because I'm dark and mysterious. Ruby: Oh, really? Jordan: Yeah, you see I'm kinda... the sexy school vampire. Ruby: That's interesting 'cause the girls call you Bambi. Jordan: Right, because I'm wirey and unpredictable... like a baby deer. Edit
