Miles and Maya are hanging out at the Hollingsworth house when Miles tempts Maya into skinny dipping by removing his swimwear while in the pool. Maya hesitantly decides to go through with it. After jumping in the pool, they are promptly caught by Miles' father and members of his campaign staff. Maya tells Mr. Hollingsworth they were doing homework as she leaves in a towel after grabbing her stuff. Miles is scolded for being foolish and embarrassing him in front of his staff.

During breakfast with his family, Mr. Hollingsworth gives Miles the silent treatment over the incident. Mr. Hollingsworth praises Miles' siblings Frankie and Hunter for their work on his campaign and suggests Miles follow their example. Miles complains to his mother about the way his father has been treating him and she suggests he try harder.

In class, Maya asks him if she left a bad impression on his father and he assures her he has taken all the blame. She says though that it isn't good that his father thinks so lowly of him and suggests that he go the extra mile to impress his Dad. Miles, Maya and Winston then begin to organize a plan to help in Mr. Hollingsworth Mayoral campaign. Miles is excited to show his dad all the work he has put into helping out and goes outside to show him. However, he instead sees his father flirting with his campaign manager. He is shown to be in disgust. 

At school, the next day Miles show Maya a necklace that he intends to give to Andrea, his fathers campaign manager, to find out what is really going on between the two. Maya is reluctant for him to go through with the plan, warning him how it could just be one big misunderstanding. He still decides to go through with it to see what is truly going on. At his house during the mock press meeting, Miles sees Andrea happily smile as she opens the fake gift and reads the card he wrote. With his suspicions confirmed, Miles is left angered and disgusted that his father is having an affair.

During the media training meeting, Miles fails to impress his father with his new attitude, mocking him with saying sarcastically how he hopes to be just like him and leaves abruptly, kicking his chair over before storming out. Miles' mother follows him out, demanding to know what is going on with him. Miles tells her that his father is having an affair. She says that she knows about it and that she won't discuss her marriage with him. Miles asks why she won't leave him or try to deal with it and she says they will deal with it after the election. Miles remarks how the election always comes first before anything else and leaves.

That night, Miles is with Maya laying on the couch together. Miles says he is done with his parents and their political plans and she asks him if he is okay. Miles says that he has her now and then confesses that he loves her.
