It's Them

Are You Ready for the Summer? is the Memorial Day special of F is for Family.

Plot[]

The episode begins with the family looking at old slides and film of past summers. They notice that Sue never finished putting up the wallpaper in the living room, which makes her cry because she feels like she never finishes anything in her life.

The next day the family heads to the Memorial Day parade which Frank has been looking forward to. He wants the family to spend the day together. However, Maureen is offered a last minute spot in the Computer Club float. Sue leaves to hand out flyers for her Carrot Crisper, Bill chases after Bridget and Kevin leaves to hang out with his friends. Frank spends his time trying to defend their seats and winds up getting into a fight with an 9 year old.

Meanwhile, Maureen is upset at her role in the float. "Space Secretary", where she would be hidden trailing on the back of the float. (The disabled member of the club is also hidden inside a cardboard computer.) Worse, when she manages to get on to the actual float and be seen, her family is gone and Frank is too distracted to see her.

Sue winds up getting a fine for littering because of her fliers, and Frank is in trouble with the boys dad who happens to be a police officer.

Later that night, Sue attempts to finish putting up the wallpaper but gives up in frustration. Frank walks in on her crying, but doesn't say anything.
