At home: Brad and Randy are ashamed of being seen in public with their "geek brother". Jill thinks she and Tim should tell Brad and Randy not to torment their little brother, but Tim has another idea: they have to "out-torment" Brad and Randy.

Tim then finds some old 8-track tapes in the basement, and he and Jill start quizzing each other about the music of the 1960s and 1970s.
