When Jep and Jess go into their yard to get some eggs, they discover their chickens have been killed by a hawk. Jess takes Miss Kay with her to buy some replacement chickens while Jep takes the kids to work to help them get their minds off the dead chickens that were like pets to them. While Jess and Miss Kay are shopping for chickens, Jess decides to surprise the kids and Jep with a new pet that will help them get over the death of the chickens, unbeknownst to Jep. Meanwhile, while Jep is entertaining the kids at the warehouse, they accidentally set off the security alarm, stranding themselves outside with a baby, a dirty diaper, and no diaper bag.
