Jill’s sister Carrie unexpectedly shows up in Detroit, and Jill invites her to stay at their house instead of a hotel - much to Tim’s chagrin. During her stay, Tim’s slobbish, unemployed brother Jeff comes over for dinner, and he and Carrie get along so well that they wind up sleeping together. Jill is mortified that her brother would go for someone like Jeff, and Tim is offended that Jill is casting aspersions on his brother. After a conversation with Wilson, Jill realizes that by looking down on Jeff she’s just mirroring her father’s judgmental tendencies, and resolves to be more supportive of her sister’s new relationship.
