That house turns out to be John and Joan's home. John and Joan tell them that they were considering a single-floor home and wanted to see how much they could make on it. They don't like the first house they go to (well, Greg does but Jen doesn't and that's what matters), but their realtor takes them to a house that isn't on the market yet but the owners are considering offers. They decide to look for houses that are actually in good school districts. Jen looks for private schools, but they're all extremely expensive. Joan goes along with it easily, but their cover is immediately blown since the principal was in the living room the whole time with John and overheard their entire plan. Jen and Greg have to pretend that Lark lives at John & Joan's, in order to get her into the good school district. To top it all off, Joan is starting to develop pinkeye. She loses the patient, and then Matt & Colleen drop Lucas off. Her patient was feeling ignored in the first place, and Joan does not help. During a therapy session, Joan falls asleep, and then Lark interrupts the session. The next day, Jen & Greg's kids are still there, and Heather also drops Sophia (who may have pink eye) off to "help" with the kids. John had been planning to go to the theater, but Joan convinces him to stay and help out with the kids. Despite a conflict over which kids she'll watch, they decide for Joan that she can watch them all. Matt & Colleen and Jen & Greg both stop by John & Joan's to ask Joan to babysit their kids. She is, which means he has to get that vasectomy reversed. Tim decides to wait until after he finds out if Heather is even fertile. After Heather agrees to give it another go, Tim goes to the doctor to discuss getting his vasectomy reversed, but the doctor tells him that his vasectomy was badly botched and that it will be extremely painful to have it reversed. This prompts Tim to start talking about having another kid that can make them grandparents, despite the many challenges (including Heather's age and Tim's vasectomy). Sam tells them that she never plans to have kids, and Sophia tells them that she plans to adopt, meaning that they will never have grandchildren that are biologically theirs. Tyler and Clementine have a pregnancy scare, which leads to Tim and Heather discussing when they will become grandparents. I didn't review the show this season beyond the premiere, but I just had to return one last time. But this fourth and unfortunately final season recaptured the magic. I was pretty critical of the entire third season of the show. I won't lie, there were some rough points. I never expected it to last for very long, certainly not this long, so I'm very grateful to have been given four seasons with the Short family. It's hard to believe we've reached the final piece in the absolute gift that has been Life In Pieces.
