Cousin Elliott

S1, E5: Charles comes home triumphant from a softball game. He is so happy with life, his job, school…Unexpectedly, cousin Elliot shows up at the Pembroke house. His ideas of how to deal with children, what is permissible and what is not, do not necessarily coincide with Charles' opinions. The children drink coffee, overeat on ice cream to the point of stomach aches, Elliot even plans to take Lila -- who is only fourteen years old -- to a dark, smoky night club.
