Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Maggie (Joanna Kerns) and Jason (Alan Thicke) find it impossible to force Luke to honor his curfew, especially after the boy takes a job at a restaurant owned by a party-animal biker. Thus, the Seavers place Mike (Kirk Cameron) in charge of Luke, holding him totally responsible for the kid's behavior. Though he makes a valiant effort to honor his "parental" responsibilites, Mike finds himself in hot water when Luke breaks curfew once again--when he's supposed to be grounded! Elsewhere, Ben tries to find out if Chrissy (Ashley Johnson) truly has psychic powers. Tracey Gold (Carol) does not appear in this episode.
