Randy is excited to go shopping at the mall with his crush Lauren - even though Jill makes him bring Mark along. But things take a turn for the embarrassing when a hooligan at the shoestore tries to pick a fight with Randy and Mark intervenes, using his karate class skills to knock the bully backwards into a pile of shoeboxes. When a columnist for the school newspaper writes about how Randy is a wuss who had to be saved by his little brother, Randy tries to look cool for Lauren by punching the columnist in the face. Instead, this makes Lauren think he’s a jerk, so Randy writes a column of his own about how real men don’t resort to violence. Also, the Beach Boys guest star as Wilson’s cousins!
