I loved the play on "I Kissed a Girl and I liked It" to get your child to eat dinner. I loved that this was a simple episode - nothing too crazy, very self-contained. I hated that this episode was so very cliche and overdone - in both storylines! I hated that Nick and Chris make up through their children... I realize it was supposed to be cute, but I didn't buy it as such. What did you think?
Guys with Kids "The Bathroom Incident" (S01E07): [I didn't know that four-story driving ranges existed!] While Emily goes down to help Gary and Marny organize their apartment, Chris and Nick are supposed to watch their young boys. [was it just me or did Emily take on a personality similar to Danny Tanner?? and where's Violet?] But, Nick is casual about it until the toddlers lock themselves in the bathroom. Nick takes off the doorknob (doesn't help), then calls the super, who can't fix it. [didn't care too much for the guys using a long grabbing stick to feed Ernie dinner.] They should probably call a locksmith, but Chris decides to use a hammer to make a hole in the wall next to the door... only to get his arm stuck, requiring the fire department's help. [seriously??] Meanwhile, Gary knows and is trying to stall Emily, even if it means having admit to his "secret stash" under the couch. [what these guys won't do for one another!]

And, in a heartfelt moment, Gary tells Marny that he doesn't want to throw away everything from before the kids... he used to be a successful agent in commercial real estate and likes to think that someday he will again work outside of the home.
