The girls arrive at Uncle Monty's to find Gia with the next clue. The final challenge is to build a sandwich at least one-foot high, using meat and lettuce alone. With "lettuce alone" being the punch line to Steve's favourite joke, D.J. now thinks all the clues are adding up to Steve proposing. As the girls begin building their sandwich the guys arrive. As the guys start the challenge, the girls finish. Gia tells the girls they must now deliver the sandwich to Steve and it must be fully intact, 12 inches tall. The girls carry their creation home through rush-hour traffic, yelling for chumps to get out of their way.
Steve has set up D.J.'s party in the back yard, including a stage. The girls are the first team to arrive. They give their sandwich to Steve who measures it with a Brannock device. Steve advises the girls are an eighth of an inch short of one-foot. Steve tells them they have to go back to Uncle Monty's to complete the task. Instead of going all the way back, Kimmy pulls bologna out of her bra and puts it on the sandwich. Steve re-measures and congratulates them. The girls are the winners of the Amazing Race. D.J. wants to know what she has won. She can't wait to see what's gonna make her love Steve forever.
Steve gathers everyone around. He has loved D.J. from the first day he laid eyes on her. Nothing brings him more happiness than seeing her happy. Believing Steve is about to propose Stephanie gets her phone out to record the happy moment. Steve wanted to make D.J.'s 40th birthday a really special day and give her something that she'd always remember. Steve gets down on one knee and... ties his shoe. Steve pulls a draw-string to make the curtain fall from in front of the stage to reveal "Your Kids on the Block". Jackson, Ramona, Max, Tommy, and Cosmo are on the stage. They dance and lip-sync to Fool me Once.
D.J. feels foolish for thinking Steve was going to propose. Her happiness doesn't depend on on their getting married. D.J. is the only person Ramona would ever put on a boy-band outfit for. Jackson admits that Cosmo messed up on the choreography because he only showed up to half the rehearsals.
Steve takes D.J. outside at nighttime for one more surprise. Steve removes a sheet to reveal a telescope that D.J. must look through to see the real gift. D.J. looks at the bright star in the center of a cluster of stars that is now officially known as Steejay. So no matter what happens on Earth that star will be there forever, like Steve's love for D.J. D.J. will never forget her 40th birthday.

They hide the evidence. Kimmy comes outside and trips over the tightrope. D.J., Stephanie, Fernando, and Matt rush to see if she's alright. Kimmy gives the impression her ankle is twisted.
When Fernando and Kimmy return to the house, Kimmy is in a wheelchair with her leg in a cast. The big-top proposal is off, but D.J. doesn't want to give up on Kimmy. Kimmy deserves a bigger and better proposal that will blow her mind. D.J., Stephanie, and Fernando put their heads together. Fernando has been holding on to one last idea.

Steve comes walking through the crowd and asks Danny for his blessing. Steve get's down on one knee in front of everyone and says: "Donna Jo Margaret Tanner Fuller, we first met 27 years ago, and my life has never been the same. The good times with you were some of the best of my whole life. I don't know how we lost each other, but somehow we found each other again. Life pulled us apart once. I never want that to happen again. I never want to miss another moment with you and Jackson and Max and Tommy. You're the last thing I think about when I fall asleep at night. And I would be the happiest man in the world if yours was the first face I see when I wake up every morning. D.J. will you marry me?" To which D.J. responds "Yes. Yes. A million times yes". Steve places the ring on D.J.'s finger.

Maureen introduces herself to D.J., Stephanie, and Kimmy. When Maureen inquires as to who the lucky bride will be, the girls inform Maureen that they will be having a triple wedding. Maureen is conflicted. She knows that pleasing one bride can be tough enough, but pleasing three brides is insanity. D.J. assures Maureen that the three have known each others their entire lives, and get along great. When Maureen asks what their wedding theme will be, the girls replies are all different; D.J. responds traditional romantic, Kimmy says eccentric yet unpredictable, and Stephanie wants purple, super sexy and funky like Prince. D.J., Stephanie, and Kimmy excuse themselves to hash out some details. D.J. is positive there will be something at the expo that they can all agree on.

D.J. instructs Stephanie to follow their traditional Tanner-Fuller Thanksgiving recipe book, that has been handed down from generation to generation, exactly. But Stephanie went online and found some new recipes. Kimmy enters frantically asking D.J. and Stephanie to stop fighting, which they weren't. D.J., Stephanie, and Kimmy greet Danny, Jesse, and Joey in the backyard when they arrive.

Steve arrives outside Jackson and Max's bedroom with his microwave. D.J. explains that Stephanie is making Thanksgiving dinner without any of their traditional dishes. D.J. Jackson, and Max have set up an alternate pirate kitchen and are cooking their own Thanksgiving meal. It started with cheesy potatoes but then Jackson wanted green bean casserole, and Max wanted brown sugar sweet potatoes. And D.J. had to make her mother's picture-perfect pumpkin pie. They have a ham marinating in the bathtub and D.J. is making a green salad.
When Stephanie heads upstairs in search of the circuit breaker after the power goes out she hears a noise coming from inside the boys room but D.J. blocks her from entering. D.J. makes up a story about Max not being able to find his holiday vest, a problem with his bow tie and he's a wreak. D.J. tells Stephanie she'll take care of the power situation, and sends her back to the kitchen.
Stephanie calls D.J. to the kitchen, where she has decorated and filled the table with Thanksgiving dishes. Tommy comes running in with cheesy potatoes all over his face. Stephanie knows D.J. must have made them. Stephanie is very upset at D.J. for not believing in her. When she can't find D.J.'s car keys, Stephanie grabs Joey's keys to go to Uncle Monty's to get her turkey.

College Tours - Kimmy notices that all the college brochures Ramona has are on the East Coast. D.J. tells Kimmy that their kids are growing up, it's important that they support and respect their life choices. Jackson is glad D.J. feels that way because he's not sure he wants to go to college. D.J. and Kimmy decide to take Jackson and Ramona on a campus tour of the University of California, to give them a glimpse of real college life. D.J. hopes it will encourage Jackson to go to college.
When Beth concludes the campus tour, Jackson mentions he likes the meal plan that lets him eat pizza all day. D.J explains that Greek life is amazing. She was the president of her sorority, Delta Upsilon Delta. Beth overhears, turns out she's a DUD too. While D.J. attended college DUD was the best sorority at CU. Every girl wanted to rush. But things have changed, Beth explains no one wants to join DUD anymore and they only have four members. Everyone wants to join Zeta Beta Gamma. ZBG were DUD's fiercest rivals. Not long after D.J. graduated, ZBG stole the Bronze Cap which is the mortar board of CU's first female graduate, from DUD. D.J. wants to steal it back.
D.J., Kimmy, Jackson, Ramona, Beth and the other three members of DUD crash the ZBG Fall Fling party. Isabel approaches D.J. and Kimmy suggesting they're a little old to be at a sorority party.

When D.J. needs a distraction strategy to clear the room, Kimmy announces that Boy George is playing a free, impromptu concert at the student union. When no one knows who Boy George is, Ramona tells Kimmy to say it's Billie Eilish. Ramona yells "Billie Eilish let's go". The party clears out besides from D.J. and Jackson.
D.J. needs Jackson to stand guard while she gets the Bronze Cap. As D.J. removes the Cap from it's glass case, a highly sensitive security system is activated. If any of the lasers are tripped the alarm will be set off. Jackson hacks into the system and guides D.J. through the maze of lasers so they can get out of their safely.
Later that day after D.J. has gone home, Beth texts D.J. to tell her the DUD's doubled their pledge class. Jackson has decided he's definitely not going to college. He did some research and found a great computer coding school in San Francisco. It's not a four-year college, but people from the program have gone on to work at Google, the FBI, and even Netflix. D.J. is impressed.
Basic Training - D.J. phones everyone she knows, bragging about how Max is skipping a grade. His teacher believes he is so advanced fifth grade is a waste of time, and he's going to middle school.
D.J. prints out pictures of Max's new teachers to play 'Who Teachers What?' in anticipation of their annual first day of school download. But when Max arrives home after his first day of middle school, he's not interested at all.
After just one day in middle school, Max dresses and acts like Matt. Max asks D.J. to buy him some sweatpants. D.J. is really worried about Max not acting like himself.
D.J. thinks the way Max is acting is all her fault. That she pushed him too far. She had high expectations and she thought if anyone could handle the jump, he could. All of a suddenly Kimmy realises it's field trip to Fisherman's Wharf all over again. D.J. and Kimmy go to talk to Max who is in the backyard throwing out his vests and suits. D.J. and Kimmy tell Max they realise the way he is feeling is field trip to Fisherman's Wharf. When D.J. and Kimmy were in the third grade they took a field trip where Kimmy was left sitting on the bus alone. Kimmy was wearing her classic bacon and egg scarf. All the kids always made fun of it. Nobody wanted to sit with her because they thought she was weird. But then D.J. did. D.J. knew Kimmy had to be fun and exciting. D.J. loved how unique Kimmy was and if she changed herself to fit in, she wouldn't be true to herself. Max explains he doesn't have anyone. He overheard the kids say he looked like a TV extra. Max ate lunch alone while the kids laughed at him. He has never cared that he is different from other kids before. But it's different in middle school, he thought it would be safer to blend in, so they'd leave him alone. D.J. and Kimmy assure Max that he will find people who appreciate the authentic Max. Max retrieves his garments from the trash.
D.J., Stephanie, and Kimmy drink wine. Stephanie got Ramona through her issue, while Kimmy got Max and D.J. through theirs.

Kimmy arrives with D.J.'s lunch, which Kimmy ate. So she stopped on the way and brought soup for D.J. and Matt. D.J. asks Kimmy to fill in for Janet.

When D.J. and Jesse arrive at the Hospital Stephanie tells them she thinks Jimmy deserves better. Stephanie believes she's not good at taking care of people. D.J. reminds Stephanie that she gave up her whole life to move in and take care of her and her kids when she needed her the most.

The entire game show set was paid for by their corporate sponsors. Max is the host, Ramona is the announcer, and Jackson will be running the cameras: holding the iPad.

The girls write down their answers and when the guys return they'll see if the answers match.

Fernando has an angry outburst, he wants to find and kill Joey McIntyre. Question two: When was the moment that you realised you were in love? Steve correctly answers "nervously doing homework". While Stephanie said Box of Kittens, Jimmy answers Anxiety! Kimmy said Happy Hour at Applebee's while Fernando, still angry at Kimmy's first answer, threatens Joey McIntyre. At the end of round one Jackson, Ramona, and Max present a word from their sponsors: Lattice World.
Round two, it's the guys turn to write the answers down. Question one: What was the first movie you saw as a couple? Stephanie answers correctly with Pitch Perfect 2.

He claims he misheard the question as worst movie instead of first movie. Question two: What celebrity couple do you most resemble?

D.J. answers "I'm hyper-competitive and I always want to win". Steve wrote "too many alarm clocks". D.J. discovers Steve is trying to lose on purpose. Stephanie answers her snore is too adorable, while Jimmy wrote nothing because he couldn't think of anything annoying about her. D.J., Stephanie, and Kimmy storm off which concludes round two. Jackson, Ramona, and Max do an ad for Uncle Monty’s Sandwich Emporium.
Fernando, Steve, and Jimmy try to think of a way to fix things. D.J., Stephanie, and Kimmy are extremely mad at the guys. Max tells the girls the game is a hit. The guys want to make it up to the girls.
Round three is largely improvised. For the final bonus round: a men's only question that they made up. What's something goofy about the ladies the men find adorable? Fernando loves Kimmy unique style and wears one of her infamous outfits including her egg and bacon scarf. He apologises for going overboard, they don't need to win a competition. Steve reveals an "I'm sorry..." banner and a "...because, I love you" banner. Jimmy does the same routine to Love Shack that Stephanie did at the telethon, wearing the same outfit. Everyone decides to make Love Shake the first song the couples will dance to at the wedding. After concluding the livestream, everyone dances.
Something Borrowed - While D.J. and Steve are sitting in the kitchen, Kimmy and Fernando enter with donuts. D.J. knows Fernando only brings gifts when he's giving bad news. Stephanie and Jimmy enter with breakfast pie. Uncle Monty's is officially opening a second location in Palo Alto which Fernando will be managing. Therefore after the wedding Kimmy, Fernando, and Ramona will be moving to Palo Alto. Jimmy will now be handling the original Uncle Monty's, which means Stephanie, Jimmy, and Dani will be moving closer to the store the following week, after the wedding.
D.J. wants to live in a total bubble of denial, about those moving out, until after the triple wedding. The couples are down to the last three tasks in the wedding planning binder. Task one: the brides-to-be have to find their something borrowed. Task two: the men to have their bachelor party. Task three: a toast to the last week before the wedding, done Tanner/Fuller/Gibbler/Hale/all of Fernando's last names-style. Fernando decides from now on he is only going to go by his first name.

Stephanie announces that all their wedding planning is now officially done. Stephanie decided to use the veil after all. D.J. is going to use her mothers wedding brooch. And Kimmy wants to use Pam's wedding necklace as her something borrowed to honour the woman who created her two besties. At the jukebox, Sally chooses the song Build Me Up Buttercup which was Pam's favourite song. Everyone sings along.
Our Very Last Show, Again - D.J., Stephanie, Kimmy, Jackson, Ramona, Danny, Joey, Max, Tommy, Fernando, Steve, and Jimmy arrive home after the rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding. It's Tommy's bedtime and he wants D.J. to read him a book. Ramona says she'll read to Tommy because it could be her last chance before she moves away. D.J. is still living in a bubble of denial, where nobody is moving out and they only talk about happy things.
When Jimmy notices the time, the grooms have to leave. He believes bad things will happen if he, Fernando, and Steve see their brides-to-be after midnight. Jimmy returns when he realises he left his phone behind. Stephanie tosses it to him. Jimmy's phone alarm alerts him to the fact that is now midnight, and Jimmy is looking at Stephanie on their wedding day. He covers his eyes and runs out.

With only two hours until the wedding, the girls hair stylist can't make it. When Fernando comes searching for his cuff links, Kimmy realises he can do their hair. Once Fernando has done D.J. and Stephanie's hair, Jimmy comes stumbling down the stairs with a paper bag on his head. Jimmy hands Fernando a blindfold and instructs him to put it on before doing Kimmy's hair.
