Pearl travels to Baltimore to spend time with her sister, leaving the Jenkins family in charge of Calvin. After he auditions for the romantic lead in a school play but is disappointed when he doesn't land the role, Calvin falls into a funk. Sandra steps in to lift his spirits, but he misinterprets her support as romantic interest and starts developing feelings for her. Observing Calvin's silly behavior over Sandra, Brenda decides to have a heart-to-heart with him, reassuring him that her feelings run deeper and that he is her best friend. This conversation helps Calvin quickly move past his crush.
