Milo accidentally vacations with the wrong family.

to:

Milo and his family take an [=RV=] on a road trip across the country; knowing that [[HereditaryCurse Murphy's Law]] would make any set destination moot, they have a general philosophy of "going with the flow." They quickly run into trouble at a rest stop, when Milo, returning from the bathroom, accidentally vacations with gets into the wrong family.[=RV=] and winds up with another family, the Brulees, who are on their way to the Grand Canyon. Naturally the Murphys only notice Milo is gone after both families have left the rest stop.

Milo repeatedly calls his parents so that the Murphys and Brulees can meet somewhere, but of course, Murphy's Law prevents this every time. This annoys their parents, who want to keep to the same schedule that they take every year, but their twin daughters enjoy the excitement that Milo brings. The episode ends with both families in a wild, death-defying trip down the Colorado River.
