Professor is working on a computer program.
Nanny takes the children in ""Arabella"", her car named after her Aunt. 3 boys laugh at Nanny and the children because of Nanny's car, calling it Yellow Arabella. The 3 boys hassle Butch and Hal about Arabella and they propose a race.
Nanny laughs at the prospect of racing Arabella but says there is no race because old cars aren't to be raced, but to be loved for.
After Nanny turns the boys challenge of a race down they ask their father who also says he agrees with Nanny. He suggests another way to have a race...using the computer program he has been working on.
The bully boys father says his Buckingham will beat Arabella even through the computer race. The boys read all of their car information to the Professor who inputs the data into his computer.
The Buckingham wins the computer data race and the Everett boys are disappointed. The family goes for a trip in Arabella and meet up with the Buckingham (magically of course!) along the way.
Season 3
Hal falls madly for Bunny, a swinging chick who comes on to him during a Sadie Hawkins dance. ""You look just like Robert Redford!"" exclaims Bunny. Hal is smitten by Bunny's feminine wiles.
After Bunny imparts that she is fifteen years old, thirteen year old Hal tries to impress her by claiming to be sixteen. Complications ensue the next day, when the assertive Bunny calls Hal and asks him to pick her up for the movies. Flustered Hal blurts out that he will be right over, in spite of the fact that he is too young to drive.
Nanny decides to bail out Hal, and she gives him a ride to pick up Bunny. Bunny is confused, and perhaps suspicious as to why Hal isn't driving, but Nanny explains she is driving because that ""she loves to drive - even in Los Angeles.""
While at the movies, Francine, Hal's thirteen year old next door neighbor sits down in front of Bunny and Hal. Francine, who has a crush on Hal, expresses surprise to see Hal with a high school girl. Bunny reacts icily to Francine
