Plot: Nathan (Moises Arias) confronts his mother Louise (Alanna Ubach) with the picture of Dale (Brian Quinn) acting like a naked dog and licking him. Louise informs Nathan that she is aware of Dale's newfound condition, but they will get through it together. Nathan is appalled and begins chastising his mother's taste in men. Louise slaps Nathan, stunning him. Nathan and Louise begin arguing in Spanish - which Dale clearly doesn't understand. Louise then kicks Nathan out of the house, telling him that he is old enough to get a job and live on his own. Nathan packs a bag and leaves. As he walks down the road, he calls every number in his phone, but nobody will let him stay with them. Nathan then finds himself in front of the community center. He breaks in and cleans out an old closet to move into.

Sally (Olivia Taylor Dudley) begins chatting with Simon (Charlie Tahan) online using the name "shygirl18" and a picture of a random girl she found on the internet. She compliments his video of the storm, saying that he must be pretty brave to get that close to a big storm like that, boosting Simon's confidence.

Kelly (Jaylen Barron) accidentally barges in on Nathan masturbating in his new makeshift bedroom. He yells at her to either leave or help him finish. Kelly scoffs and walks away. When Nathan leaves the closet, Kelly asks why he is living in the community center. Nathan confesses that his mother kicked him out.

Nathan goes home and apologizes to his mother for making a scene. Dale explains that ever since the storm he occasionally mentally turns into a Jack Russell Terrier - his childhood pet. Louise asks Nathan if he is ready to come home, but Nathan lies to her and says that he has moved in with some friends already. Louise tells Nathan that she is proud that he's trying to live out on his own finally.

Alisha (Odeya Rush) and Curtis (Jonathan Daviss) enter the locker room at the community center and find a note on the lockers saying: I KNOW WHAT YOU DID. They bring this to the attention of Simon and Kelly. Kelly suggests the note is for Nathan since he has been masturbating in the closet.
