You should know that Mike is not a fan of Travis. The guy actually goes to a tanning salon! As for Eve, she likes a boy on an opposing soccer team.
And Vanessa has the biggest news of all when she gets a promotion at work. That means Mike will have to step up at home. Uh oh. Mandy has the audacity to call Triple- A after she gets a flat. What was she thinking?! Mike grounds her until she can figure out how to change a tire all by herself.
He also yanks Boyd out of daycare once he sees how they run things at the Happy Happy Rainbow Play Care Center. Mike puts enthusiastic employee Kyle (Christoph Sanders) in charge of his grandson for the day. Hope the kid knows how to change a diaper!
Kyle’s a good guy who knows how to change a tire. That’s why Mike asks him to swing by the house to meet Mandy. He’s taking a proactive approach to parenting. Unfortunately, Mike’s advice for Eve to play aggressive soccer backfires when she sprains the ankle of the guy she likes. But the injured kid likes the way Eve plays the game. He asks her out. Eve promises her dad that she’ll continue to be aggressive on her date. When Kyle pops by the Baxter home to meet Mandy, he accidentally makes a date with Kristin.
The two of them seem to like each other enough, so Mike rolls with it. Kristin is upset about being set up at first, but she changes her tune after Kyle mentions how good her dad is with Boyd. She can go on her movie date knowing that her son is in good hands with his granddad. Mike escapes home life long enough to make a late night video for the Outdoor Man website. What starts off as a pitch to sell crossbows becomes a full- on rant about the lack of real men out there.

Mike’s angry outburst goes viral. The company’s site gets gobs of hits. That means Mike is allowed to go back on the road. But this man’s man isn’t going anywhere.
Mike is needed at home where he can effectively terrorize any guy who comes near his daughters. He’s such a good dad.
Two of a Kind (Series)A fairly standard Dom Com series, starring Mary- Kate & Ashley Olsen as Mary- Kate & Ashley Burke, who live their ordinary pre- teen life — except for the fact that their widowed working father, Kevin, can't be at home all the time and therefore needs a sitter to be with them.. Carrie, a student in his class whom his daughters picked as their nanny.
This show has parallels with Full House, the most obvious examples being both the prominent roles the Olsen twins take up and Miller- Boyette as production company. It ran for one season only and was the last sitcom produced by Miller- Boyette.
Alpha Bitch: Jennifer in her first episode. This gets dropped pretty soon and she is shown hanging around with Ashley all the time.
Attractive Bent- Gender: This happens to Brian during the Halloween Episode after some costume swapping, something of which he is not fond. Max: You didn't have to say yes. Back to School: When Kevin & Carrie first meet in one of his classes, he notes that she's older than the average college student, and she notes that she's decided to return to school. Big Eater: Carrie actually. Book Dumb: Mary Kate. Brick Joke: The twins discuss Carrie having a tattoo that says "Jean Luc" in the pilot. In a later episode after Kevin walks in on Carrie in the shower, he asks who Jean Luc is.
Bumbling Dad: Averted. Kevin is the butt of jokes a few times throughout the series, but he is shown to be a very competent, strong, and loving father. He also doesn't hesitate to lay down the law if Mary- Kate and/or Ashley step out of line. Can't Get Away with Nuthin': Played with in when the twins sneak over to Carrie's college party without Kevin's permission. They get caught but the end of the episode has them realising they can still make a good story out of this.
Mary Kate: Well I guess Jennifer Dilber wins again. Ashley: At least we can say we were at a college party. Mary Kate: And that a cop showed up, and we nearly got arrested.
Ashley: I think we can make this work. This also occurs in an episode where Carrie convinces Kevin to call in sick at work and go to a ballgame instead, which is the first time he's ever played hooky. He wins a car because of this- and ends up on the big screen and the evening news. When his boss calls, the trope is revealed to be subverted; he was just asking to test drive the car. And then subverted when the girls throw a party at the house while Kevin is away. See Sarcastic Confession below. Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Eddie starts out as a regular member before disappearing about midway through the series' run without further mention.
Cool and Unusual Punishment: The twins sneaked their way around to a college party without Kevin's approval, so Carrie decided to have them stay.. Cosmetic Catastrophe: Ashley gets an ink stain on her face and Carrie tries to cover it up with a lot of makeup. Ashley: "Oh my God, I look like Grandma!"Deadpan Snarker: Mary Kate, Kevin and Carrie.
Deconstructed Character Archetype: The series deconstructed Papa Wolf in one episode. Ashley has a crush on her tutor but discovers he has a girlfriend and is heartbroken. When Kevin finds out, he fires the tutor thinking it would help. Instead Ashley yells at him for meddling in her private business and Carrie points out how Kevin assumed he would be helping rather than actually asking Ashley about her feelings. Kevin eventually admits it was more out of a desire to come across as a hero - and hires the tutor back.
Getting Crap Past the Radar: A female next- door neighbor tells Carrie of a female relative of her love interest. She isn't fond of said relative and lets Carrie know it, and then this takes place: Carrie: What is she, some kind of witch? Neighbor: You're just one letter off.
A not- so subtle example in another episode where the twins lie to their father's date that Carrie is another one of his girlfriends: Marcy: You never mentioned her. Kevin: There's not much to tell. I needed someone, I took out an ad and Carrie showed up. It's just a coincidence that she happened to be a student of mine. And whenever she's too busy with her studies I just call Mrs Baker. She's my neighbour.
Of course she's 7. Carrie but she still gets the job done". Peeping Twins" literally implies that Mrs Baker and Mr. Filmore are going to have sex. Hypocritical Heartwarming: In- universe example where the twins lie to their father's date as they're afraid of losing Carrie. She finds this sweet but immediately tells them off after a cough from Kevin. Informed Ability: A plot point in one episode where a guy Mary Kate likes says he only swing dances and when she keeps asking him to dance with her (after learning how to swing- dance) he rebuffs her before confessing he can't dance at all and just made it up as an excuse.
Ironic Inversion: Ashley auditions for a modelling agency but doesn't get it despite having prepared for weeks. Mary Kate has no interest in it and ends up getting it with a sarcastic tryout. Turns out that Mary- Kate was just as interested in the modelling job, but didn't want to appear too enthusiastic to avoid ruining her reputation. Karma Houdini: Carrie gets this a couple of times.
She nags Kevin into asking out a waitress, convinced that they'll hit it off. Instead the waitress flips out because she hates being hit on at work, and Kevin has to find a new place to get coffee. Another episode had her rant to him about a model asking him out, suggesting she only did it to make herself seem smart. This ends up making Kevin paranoid and ruining his date. Watch Rango Online Mic. Carrie is never called out on this. Another episode has Kevin planning to break up with Nancy but Carrie tells her by accident, making Nancy even angrier that she knew in advance as well. The episode ends with Kevin finding one of his car mirrors smashed and Carrie gets away scot- free again.
Lovable Alpha Bitch: Jennifer Dilber. Lovable Jock: Mary- Kate herself. Manic Pixie Dream Girl: Carrie is part this, part Magical Nanny. Missing Mom: Kevin is widowed. How this came to be is never revealed. Watch A Tale Of Two Cities Online Facebook on this page. Noodle Incident: The twins make one up to scare their father's date. For some reason Ashley has so many germs they can't keep cats anymore.
Not What It Looks Like: When Paul (Another of Kevin's students) turned up at the house delivering a pizza for the girls' slumber party, only to see Carrie lounging around their professor's house & painting her nails whilst he paid for a pizza, he came to the (not unreasonable) conclusion that they were having an affair & told their class about it. Punctuated! For! Emphasis!: When Kevin's car breaks down and he needs to not only drop Mary- Kate and Ashley to school but get to work himself, he enlists Carrie's help. His initial attempt at instructing Carrie proves too complicated for Carrie to comprehend, so he simplifies his instruction to "Us.. Carrie understands at once, and all four of them make their way to Carrie's car. Sarcastic Confession: The twins hold a party that escalates out of control later before Paul manages to make the guests leave, and together they tidy up before Kevin gets home. Then this occurs: Kevin: How was the party?
One of the twins: It got very quiet after the band left. Kevin: Very funny. Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: Kevin and his brother, Matt. Earlier in the season, Kevin and his best friend, Eddie. Ship Tease: Carrie and Kevin a few times. Stab the Salad: The plot of the episode "Peeping Twins" though the audience knows from the start.
Those Two Guys: Max and Brian. Token Minority: Max. Tomboy and Girly Girl: Between Mary- Kate and Ashley. Twin Switch: So very often, to the point of not only fooling the father but getting a tutor suspicious when the girl he tutors shows drastic academic improvement. Carrie is able to tell the difference immediately however. Wild Teen Party: All right, so the twins aren't teen yet, but the party they hold still turn into this.
