Steve's romance with Barbara continues and despite his father's efforts not to recommend him (to avoid the appearance of nepotism), Robbie is offered a job as a structural engineer at his father's firm. He tries to talk it over with his father, who is head over heels in a very engrossing friendship and cannot be reached.

The family is delighted when the romance between Steve (Fred MacMurray) and Barbara (Beverly Garland) blossoms. Steve and Barbara are both anxious to declare their love to each other.

Now that Steve (Fred MacMurray) and Barbara (Beverly Garland) are engaged, they just have to learn to adjust to each other's families. Barbara's daughter, Dodie (Dawn Lyn), is not so sure she wants to share her mother.

Steve and Barbara plan their wedding to take place in two weeks. She wants a large wedding with a lot of family and friends. Steve is thinking of a simple wedding at the office of a justice of the peace..

With the wedding date approaching, tensions arise. Steve and Barbara wonder if they are doing the right thing by rushing into marriage.

It's Steve and Barbara's wedding day. Not wanting a repeat of what happened before Rob's wedding, the Douglas clan awakes very early and gets dressed, then everyone goes back to sleep. Tramp runs off again and arrives at the wedding as before.

Steve and Barbara arrive in a quaint village in Mexico which Steve had previously visited on a fishing trip. They expect to find the same quiet place Steve remembers and have the place virtually to themselves. They are surprised to find the village has been "put on the map" by a travel magazine and the obscure little hotel, whose name has changed from Moon Hotel to Honeymoon Hotel, is filled to capacity with young newlyweds. The Douglases are continually put upon by the young couples around them for help with everything from homesickness, to settling quarrels to ...

The Douglas household adjusts to having a young girl in the house, and Dodie (Dawn Lyn) learns living with 3 big brothers, a sister-in-law and a grumpy uncle can be rough.

Katie (Tina Cole) finds a few gray hairs on her head and tells Robbie (Don Grady) they have to plan for their retirement and set up their wills; Dodie (Dawn Lyn) is worried about going from the first grade to the second grade.

The women in the family seem to have a way of getting the men to do the things they want. When Steve has to take part in a play at Dodie's school, Robbie thinks it shows that women are born with the skill.

Barbara plans her first dinner party for Steve and his business associates. Everything seems to go wrong.

A sultry secretary (Brenda Benet) causes jealousy among the Douglas women, and quite a different reaction among the Douglas men.

Dodie has to have her tonsils taken out, and she tells her mother that she wants Steve to stay with her in the hospital overnight. Meanwhile, Robbie and Katie go on a vacation without the triplets.

Sylvia Cannon (Jane Wyman), a former girlfriend of Steve's (Fred MacMurray), comes to visit. Barbara (Beverly Garland) gets jealous.

Rob gets invited to an old friend's wedding back in Bryant Park and takes Katie with him, hoping to introduce her to other people he knew as well. Much to his surprise, virtually no one else remembers him.

Steve (Fred MacMurray) formally adopts Dodie (Dawn Lyn), who enlists the aid of Chip (Stanley Livingston) and Ernie (Barry Livingston), after being harassed in school by a mean-spirited girl (Erin Moran).
