Synopsis: Steve meets a gorgeous bug collector named Agnes Prizker in an online chat room to trade bugs with and accidentally fantasizes about kissing her. However, he reminds himself that he's in a relationship with Myra and goes to Laura about it. She encourages him to tell his girlfriend about it. Should he dare tell Myra the truth about what happened?Meanwhile, Carl reluctantly allows Harriette's boss from Ferguson's Department stores, Nick Neidermeyer to join in his poker night with his buddies. As much as he hates her boss for being an obnoxious prick to him and his poker buddies (Charlie, Willie and Zoohair), he's trying hard to keep his cool around Nick to protect Harriette's standing at work. In his fantasy, he tosses him out due to his selfishness, much to her dismay.In Urkel's fantasy world, he's hanging out at his girlfriend's house and he tells her about his fantasies in wanting to kiss Agnes Prizker because she was attractive and gorgeous. This angers Myra as she turns her attention on him. She gives Steve a lot of hell by destroying her house and her backyard trying to get her hands on him for having fantasies about cheating on her. In reality, he tells her about his fantasies in kissing Agnes. Myra tells him he can fantasize about it all he wants, but not act on them.A week finally passes and Harriette immediately regrets her decision in letting her selfish boss join in on her husband's poker game. Nick tells a miserable Carl and his friends that they'll come to love his sense of humor as the weeks go by. She finally snaps and tells him that the only thing that will go bye is him. She reminds Nick by telling him off that Carl was nice enough to invite him into his game and he thanks him by being inconsiderate, disrespectful and a jackass to him. Her husband tries to convince her otherwise, but Harriette tells him that it isn't all right because she had enough with being quiet and it's her time to tell Nick otherwise that his behavior is unacceptable. She reminds Carl that the poker game was very important to him and she screwed it up by inviting her douchebag, loud-mouthed boss over to play with them. His poker buddies cheer her on as Neidermeyer stands up and asks if she has to be reminded who she's talking to. However, she doesn't need to be reminded and tells him off that he may be her boss, but it doesn't mean he has the right to come into her house and be obnoxious to Carl and his friends. Harriette immediately dares Nick to fire her and she also tells him that he'll never play poker in her house again. Neidermeyer admitted that he would fire her if he wasn't being transferred to the automotive department. She tells him that he can't fire her and he says no. With no authority to her, Carl decides to pay Nick for all the misery he put him and his friends through by putting a napkin on his shirt. Nick thinks they're just being nice to him and give him a pie to eat on the way to his house. Instead, Harriette throw a pie to his face and the poker buddies applaud as Carl escorts him out of the Winslow house.During the end credits, Carl and his poker buddies are having fun playing poker with Harriette as the dealer and the fifth member of their game. Zoohair even comments her style of playing poker with maverick's. Carl and the others laugh as they make their bets.
