'''B Plot:''' Erica has grown tired of Geoff's daily romantic gestures, telling him she just wanted to spend her winter break relaxing. When a disappointed Geoff leaves, Erica becomes concerned that she is turning into her gruff, unromantic father. Taking a tip from Adam, Jackie, and some of their favorite 1980s romantic comedies, Erica drives Murray's lawnmower to Geoff's to profess her love, but it backfires when she runs into Lou's car. In the end, Erica tells Geoff she really does love him, even if she struggles to find ways to show it.
