Rev meanders down to the kitchen to inform Justine that JoJo's in New York with the rest of Team Blackout signing their deal with K1X shoes. Before Justine can respond, Russy comes running in as he masterfully juggles several balls in the air. Seeing that they're impressed, Russy asks Justine to take him to the "World Of Fun" store. Rev shoots it down immediately, saying Russy's had too much fun and needs to focus on one trick at a time.
Back in LA, Vanessa is looking for the wrapping paper and almost gets crushed by the avalanche of boxes and purses that fall out of the closet when she opens it. Apparently Angela ran out of room in her closet and took over the luggage closet. Vanessa thinks Angela may have a shopping problem and suggests that she find another hobby.
JoJo returns to the house, with K1X exec Cesar and a ton of shoes. The guys are so pumped about it that Cesar has JoJo sign the first pair of "JoJo autographed edition" of K1X shoes for Rev. Rev's proud of his son but makes JoJo promise not to blow all the money right away. It's a good warning, considering that JoJo already drew up a chain he wants to have designed for himself.
Instead of listening to Rev, Justine takes Russy to the "World Of Fun" store where he becomes instantly enamored with magician Daniel's magic tricks. Besides making a little disc fly around the store, Daniel somehow gets Russy to pick the same King of Clubs card three times -- and of course, a magician never reveals his secrets! Russy immediately decides to make magic his newest hobby.
When Angela goes through Vanessa's closet to find an outfit to borrow, she realizes that Vanessa may have a shopping problem too. Besides having tons of clothes that still have the tags on them, Vanessa admits to going to a store earlier that week to buy a tank top and coming out with three bags of clothes. The girls agree that they both have issues with shopping and could probably use some help.
Russy returns home to show off one of his new magic tricks to his dad. Rev is amused that Russy can change a hanky into a wand, but not impressed to learn that Justine has bought him a ton of new magic tricks. Between the guitar, the skateboard and the magic tricks, Rev is concerned that Justine is buying Russy too much stuff and he's never going to learn to stick with one hobby. To prove his dedication to magic, Rev encourages Russy to put on a show using every trick that Justine has bought him.
Following through on their desire to get help, Vanessa and Angela go to see a therapist about their shopping habit. Vanessa admits that it's to the point that she feels bad whenever she leaves a store, where as Angela's problem is the opposite -- she feels great when she leaves a store, but she always ends up buying way more than what she intended to. To try and get the girls to master their control while shopping, the therapist encourages them to go into a store and buy just one thing instead of several.
Russy tells Diggy about the magic show that Rev wants him to put on and tells him he needs an assistant. When Diggy suggests that Russy doesn't know any real magic, Russy grabs a dollar bill and makes it float between his hands on its own, finally impressing his big brother.
Vanessa and Angela head to a boutique to try and buy just one item, but immediately get into trouble when Angela decides that a bag with the store's logo doesn't count as an item since she can put whatever she's buying into the bag. Then Angela reasons that buying one outfit counts as one item, because they clearly can't buy a pair of jeans without the shirt to go with it! Vanessa finally draws the line when Angela suggests that they could buy each other gifts too, since the therapist didn't say anything about buying stuff for other people.
Like Diggy, JoJo is hesitant to buy Russy as a real magician until he shows him a trick. Ever the talent, Russy shows how he can make two magical coins go from black to white to red and yellow. Then Russy tells his brother that if he wants to see more, he'll have to buy him more tricks. Because JoJo's feeling generous (and just got a big check from his shoe deal), he agrees to take Russy back to the store. Still, Russy needs an assistant for his magic show. JoJo won't be the assistant, but he'll be Russy's manager and will buy him an assistant.
The girls go back to their therapist and come clean about buying one outfit instead of one item. Vanessa admits that even in the store, she felt bad knowing she'd have to tell the therapist about their slip-up. When the therapist asks if Vanessa has ever felt like someone else was watching over her shoulder in this way, Angela and Vanessa realize that they might be shopping so much because for the first time in their lives, their dad isn't around to tell them not to. The therapist thinks being homesick might be at the root of the girls' shopping problems and suggests that they call their family to talk about what's going on.
Back from the magic store, Russy and JoJo sneak up on Rev to surprise him with Russy's latest toy: a ventriloquist doll. Rev gives JoJo trouble for spending more money on Russy, and not even for magic tricks! But Russy shows that he's already capable of working the doll and throwing his voice and Rev decides he can't be too mad at JoJo for investing in his brother.
The girls call up Rev to tell him about their shopping addiction, but Rev doesn't completely understand the issue. They get JoJo on the phone, who doesn't get the shopping addiction either and laughs when the girls explain that they shop because they miss their family. JoJo suggests they move back, but the girls say they don't want to do that. Angela admits that the conversation only made her want to shop more.
JoJo finds Russy diligently practicing with his dummy and is glad to see his money's not going to waste. When Russy heads off to practice elsewhere, JoJo tells Rev that Vanessa and Angela's speech on family has inspired him on how to spend his money: he's going to bring his mom and family in from Queens for a big family dinner and have Russy be the entertainment. Rev likes the idea, so long as JoJo invests the rest of his money wisely.
Justine is equally enthusiastic about the big family dinner. Like Rev, she thought he'd spend the money on his car or something extravagant! She asks if the girls will be joining them and Rev tells her that JoJo thinks that the girls should stay in LA and focus on their "healing." Rev, however, thinks JoJo's just trying to save a buck.
JoJo gathers his two families together at a New Jersey Marriott and quickly introduces "The Great Russy-ni." After doing a few tricks, Russy brings out his lovely assistant (courtesy of JoJo), Lauren. From card tricks to bending a spoon with his mind, Russy wows the crowd with his magic. Then, he busts out Dave the dummy to show off his ventriloquism skills. For his grand finale, Russy makes Lauren disappear. When he pulls the curtain back, he reveals Angela and Vanessa in from LA! JoJo leads a toast to the whole family being together again, at least for a little bit. Looks like he wasn't looking to save a dollar after all!
Back at the house, Rev asks the girls how much this "therapy thing" is going to cost. They haven't gotten the bill yet, but Angela thinks that since they're in therapy because they miss the family, the family should pay for the therapy. Rev thinks that since JoJo has learned how to spend his money wisely, it's time for the girls to figure that out too.
Even a little financial discussion can't take the smile off Rev's face. He tells Justine that he's overwhelmed with all the family love burning in the house. He's actually touched at how much the girls miss the family and impressed with Russy's magic skills.
"Does your family complete you? Mine does. Life affords no greater privilege than living amongst the ones you love. Remember, a house is made of walls and ceilings, but a home is made of loving feelings. It's good to be home! God is love."
