When Jack and Will arrive at the house, they are greeted by all their former party friends and...their babies. Will thinks it's great, but Jack is disappointed. When their friends talk about how long it's been since they've been out, Will offers to baby-sit their daughter, Hannah, while they go to the movie. After a bribe of fifty bucks, so does Jack and the two agree. But while trying to get Hannah to sleep, Jack and Will get in a fight and Jack claims that Will's just upset because he's not a good father. Will is upset, and on the drive home admits that he's not a good father and is heartbroken because he's always wanted to be a dad. Jack realizes what he said and insists that Will is a good father, to Jack. Will agrees and thanks Jack by taking him to a bar.
Meanwhile, Grace meets Karen at the yacht club, and notices how upset Karen is about Grace dating Ben. Grace assumes Karen is jealous and makes fun of her. Karen gets upset and storms off. Rosarrio, who was listening in, informs Grace that Karen is reaching the same age that Stan's last wife was when he dumped her and Karen is feeling insecure about herself.
Grace feels badly and, after unsuccessfully trying to make it up to Karen by complimenting her, convinces Ben to hit on Karen. It works, but not in the way Grace hoped. Stan noticed Ben's actions and has him and Grace booted from the club, proving to Karen that he truly does love her.
