Full House: Five’s a Crowd

Most fathers cringe when their daughters start dating, but Danny is especially shocked by D.J.’s new love interest Pete — a grungy guitar player who is known for getting his way with the ladies. On the night of their first date, Danny, Joey, and Jesse are all dressed up to attend a special awards ceremony, but plans are changed when the guys learn of D.J.’s frightening whereabouts. Meanwhile, Kimmy is hired by Jesse and Becky to babysit the twins, but she’s not the one doing the majority of the work.

Jesse’s recording studio is used by “The Funky Tongues”, the hottest band in D.J.’s school. Jesse, Rebecca, Danny and Joey then start preparing to go to a local awards ceremony where “Wake Up, San Francisco” and “Ranger Joe” have been nominated. Danny is bothered by the fact that “Wake Up, San Francisco” gets beat almost every year by “Up and at ‘em, Oakland”.

“I don’t know what people see in that show,” he says to Becky.

“Cheerleaders wrestling in a syrup pit?” Becky replies.

D.J. has a date, so Stephanie and Kimmy will baby-sit Michelle and the twins. D.J.’s date shows up, and it’s Pete, the lead singer of “The Funky Tongues”. Pete takes D.J. to a drive-in movie theater. Danny is surprised when Jesse tells him that Pete is exactly like Jesse was at Pete’s age — girl crazy. Danny is even more surprised when Kimmy tells him that Pete has never heard the word “no”. Danny, Jesse, and Joey send Becky to the awards ceremony with Joey’s puppet, Mr. Woodchuck. Then they go to the drive-in and intrude on D.J.’s date, absolutely humiliating D.J., who is furious.

The guys take D.J. home, where D.J. blasts the guys by accusing them of overreacting and not trusting her judgement. The guys apologize for overreacting, and D.J. apologizes for neglecting to tell them she was going to a drive-in movie theater instead of a regular indoor movie theater. D.J. neglected to tell them because she knew that they would overreact and humiliate her, and that was the last thing she wanted to happen. The guys don’t want to stop D.J. from dating, so they promise that they will never again act like a bunch of commandos whenever D.J. goes out on a date. At the awards ceremony, Joey and the “Ranger Joe” show won an award for best children’s programming. However, “Wake Up, San Francisco” still lost, but hopefully not to “Up and at ‘em, Oakland”.
