Plot
The friends were playing a board game at the garage, growing sick of Hank being indecisive. Then, Ginger serves a tennis ball into the garage; tired of Ginger's hyper nature, his parents had signed him up for a tennis championship. After knocking down Tom's structure, Tom takes him outside to play tennis.

Ginger quickly gets frustrated that he constantly misses the ball, but Tom tells him to simply calm down and focus on having fun rather than winning. However, Angela comes out and tells him that Ginger should focus on winning.

Angela creates a flashback to a time when she played in a tennis tournament, performed a song, only for her opponent to scar her with the ball and win the tournament. Darren then appears with a jetpack and brags about his wealth and how he was bound to win, then briefly leaves. Tom and Angela argue, and agree to both coach Ginger their own way.

They both train Ginger; Angela forces him to do rigorous exercises while Tom serves him drinks and entertains him.

At the tennis tournament, Hank is still playing the board game with Ben, stalling forever to decide on what he should do as the last move of the game. Ginger was ready to play the match with Darren, only for Darren to beat him 15-0. Ginger breaks down in tears as Tom and Angela comfort him, telling him that he still had fun instead of winning a "stupid tennis prize." Darren is handed a ticket to the International Space Station, and uses his jetpacks to leave, only to crash into Hank's board game, forcing him to start over.
