Plot[]
Frank and Carol decide to enter the new blended family into the "Port Washington Games". But J.T., Al, and Brendan object since their new stepsiblings aren't very athletic. Meanwhile, the more civilized Dana, Karen, and Mark see the games as too barbaric. Eventually, the Fosters decide to participate, with predictable results, but even so, they keep the Lamberts close, and Karen ties things up in the pie-eating contest because her competition cannot eat around her. Eventually, Cody provides the family some much-needed help in the final tug-of-war event making the Fosters and the Lamberts victorious.

Goofs[]
- When Cody shows up at the games, the father of the other family comments that Cody isn't a Foster/Lambert family member and Cody says he's Dana's fiancé', which appeases the other father. However, Cody is Frank's nephew, and since they mentioned earlier that he had played in the family games before, it shouldn't have been an issue.
