Summary[]
Frank knows exactly what he wants for his birthday (a trout tracker), but Carol believes in shopping for a surprise gift and comes up with a "treat" he considers torture: "French bikini briefs." Meanwhile, Mark's girlfriend Gabrielle, another sexually naive nerd, stays over, and the siblings form two camps: IDana preaches girl power, J.T. the man wearing the pants. Only Cody tells the lovebirds to follow their hearts and just enjoy making up.

Goofs[]
- Frank Lambert keeps saying very disparaging things about the French. He claims that the French are short and Americans much taller. In fact, it is quite the opposite. French men are considered average at 6 feet tall, whereas very few American men reach that height. When his wife gives him a pair of red satin underwear, she calls them "French cut", which is nothing but a made-up American appellation, to describe the cut in the legs that reaches high towards the hips and has nothing whatsoever to do with France or what people wear there. French men do not wear don't wear effeminate underwear.
Quotes[]
- Mark: J.T. said I can't apologize, because that would make me a wimp.
- Cody: Okay, I just have one more small question for you... *why* would you take advice from a *bonehead* like J.T.?
- Mark: You said that already.
- Cody: I know, I'm using repetitious dialogue to prove a point. Now think about it, what does JT have? He has the swimsuit issues, and he has the bun cruncher channel. What does he know about women?
- Cody: You look like you got a little droop in your drawers.
- Mark: I had a rough night. Gabrielle and I had a little brouhaha.
- Cody: Brouhaha, man that Hungarian food's a killer, did that paprika give you a scooch 1-2-3?
- Mark: No, Cody, we had a fight.
- Cody: Wow, a fight and a scooch 1-2-3, you *did* have a rough night.
- Mark: It was such a stupid fight, I feel awful.
- Cody: Then why don't you just go upstairs and apologize?
- Mark: J.T. told me real men don't apologize.
- Cody: Okay, I just have one small question for you... why would you take advice from a *bonehead* like JT?
- Gabrielle: I was a pain in the B-U-T-T.
- Cody: [laughing] She spelled butt!
- [chuckles]
- Cody: That's cute!
