Episode synopsis
Pamela is tired of seeing her parents preferring Butch over her, and decides to do something about it after Joan decides to turn her old room into a closet. While driving home, Butch and Pam argue and she makes him walk home. While talking to Charlie, Butch finds out he prefers his mom over him, making Butch sad. He goes to his old room at his parents to chill, and Pam drops by to apologize. When she walks into his room, she sees that his room has been preserved (painted, polished, dusted) as a "Museum of Butch". Sick of all that crap, Butch insists that they all go to a therapist. At the therapist, they all find out that Bill had the same situation with his father, and Pamela finally realizes she cares because she loves them. They all eventually drive the therapist insane and everything is back to "normal".
