With Anna-Kat and Franklin stuck home with mono, Katie is forced to homeschool them and uses the opportunity to launch her mommy vlog. But after trying to be someone she's not on the vlog, Katie lets loose on the kids and neglects to delete the recording. The result is something mom audiences eat up and praise. Meanwhile, Taylor gets an 'A' on her first college paper which makes Greg question her young TA's intentions, but the TA later says Taylor's story has one of the most original takes he's seen. Also, Oliver and Cooper decide to move to the basement, leading to Cooper hiring contractors to remodel it. While Katie likes the new look, she questions whether Cooper will get anywhere in life constantly relying on his parents' money.

Katie tries to get Anna-Kat and Franklin to be more active for her mommy vlog, but the kids are obsessed with being ultra-safe and are afraid to just play.

Both parents refuse, but Oliver is able to obtain a couple pills from his classmate. Greg takes a pill that Oliver hid in a B-12 bottle, causing side effects to kick in during his city council debate. Elsewhere, Taylor is invited to an art exhibit by her TA, Andre, who clumsily insists it's not a date after Taylor asks to bring her boyfriend.

Katie holds Tami in high esteem as a mother, and Tami does help her handle an issue with Oliver and Cooper when Katie discovers their hidden bar in the basement. But it appears Tami no longer has the stamina to handle her youngest child, Grace, and actually needs Katie's help. Meanwhile, Taylor discovers Greg playing bass guitar in a history-themed band at the mall, something no one else in the family knows about.

After repeatedly declining Maria's request for a couples dinner, Katie eventually caves when Greg says that Maria's husband, Principal Ablin, can greatly help his city council campaign by endorsing him on the school's message board. However, the dinner only inspires Ablin to run for city council himself. Anna-Kat unwittingly becomes the "queen bee" of her friend group, which greatly pleases Katie but causes Anna-Kat stress when her friends begin to copy her every move. Meanwhile, Oliver's stress over his SAT test has him reluctantly trying the relaxation techniques that Taylor is learning in her psychology class, but nothing seems to work. Oliver then gets a call on teen helpline from a girl who is worried about a big tennis match, and he gives her sound advice. Taylor then presents Oliver with his own advice, admitting she called teen helpline using an app to disguise her voice.

J.D., a recently divorced gay man, overhears Katie and Tami talking at second breakfast and praises them for being the only people in the place having a "real" conversation. Later, Katie and Tami discuss needing some masculinity in their group (which Greg overhears and misunderstands), and they decide to invite J.D. to their next second breakfast. J.D. mentions wanting to be a father, causing Katie and Tami to try all they can to convince him of the pitfalls of parenthood. While the women meant well, J.D. is disappointed that they think he can't handle a child. Meanwhile, Cooper continues to deal with becoming "Otto poor" while also admitting he's never learned to ride a bicycle. Also, Taylor starts to realize she may be drifting apart from Trip as she gets closer to Andre, her Philosophy TA.

J.D. then conspires with Katie and Tami to break into the clinic at night and steal the women's addresses. Meanwhile, Taylor gets in trouble with her ne'er-do-well friends, the Joshes, and is arrested. Greg tries to make a deal with the local newspaper publisher's son to keep Taylor out of the police blotter, worried that it might harm his election campaign. He is successful, only to have Katie get arrested at the fertility clinic and end up in the blotter. Also, Cooper becomes depressed over the thought that, without money, he has nothing to contribute to Oliver's business or family. That changes after he makes a gourmet lunch for Oliver, Anna-Kat and Franklin.

For his 100th "Getting Frank with Franklin" podcast (a nod to the 100th episode of American Housewife), Franklin decides to interview the entire Otto household. His interview questions dig deep, as he explores Greg's tendency to be a pushover, Cooper and Oliver's "lapdog-and-owner" relationship, Taylor hiding her affection for Andre from Trip, and Katie's tendency to discourage Anna-Kat from trying things that might lead to failure. This causes Greg to hire Lonnie Spears to help him fight back against Ablin's misleading campaign ads, while Cooper becomes brutally honest about following Oliver to Harvard and Katie confronts her mother about treating her like she's treating Anna-Kat. Meanwhile, Taylor accepts a lunch date with Andre and sees Trip walk in with another girl.

However, after Oliver and Taylor work through a quarrel and start getting along, Greg and Katie start to see them as possible guardians. Oliver runs into Lindsey while out with Taylor, and gets visibly upset when Lindsey shuns him. Meanwhile, J.D. tries to meet with his potential egg donors without them finding out why.

Greg finds a way to entrap a political opponent who has been overheard saying negative things about Westport. With Lonnie's help, Greg manages to do so, but then decides not to use it. The opponent soon drops out of the race anyway. Meanwhile, Taylor and Andre go on a real date, but Taylor avoids his kiss at the end of it and can't figure out why. She runs into Trip and explains that while she enjoyed the attention paid by her college TA, she's really in love with Trip and wants to try again. After saying he needs time to think about it, Trip agrees within a few seconds. Also, Anna-Kat makes Franklin his favorite cake for their third anniversary of sharing gum.

After Anna-Kat realizes that she and Franklin have been spending most of their time together has been watching the movie Soapdish, Franklin has realized that he has become lazy in his relationship with Anna-Kat, Franklin gives her a whistle ring and proposes to marry her in 15 years. This inspires Trip to propose to Taylor for real, and she accepts. The City Council election ends with Greg and Ablin in a tie. Because the city's last tie was in 1792 and the charter's provision for ties hasn't been amended since then, Greg and Ablin are forced to have a duel. The city official agrees that the duel can be done with paintball guns. After Ablin cheats, Greg shoots him and wins. As the series ends, Katie reveals she is pregnant.
