Hangin' with Mr. Cooper (1992)

Episode Overview

Geneva is tightening the rules to ensure Nicole's safety now that they've moved to Oakland from Georgia. When Geneva discovers Nicole biking to the store for candy, she punishes her, leading Mark and Vanessa to believe that Geneva is being too strict. Tyler suggests that Nicole should consider divorcing Geneva. Mark then persuades Geneva to try reverse psychology, hoping it will make Nicole more inclined to follow the rules. However, as Nicole enjoys herself, Mark doubts the tactic is effective. Will Nicole end up respecting Geneva's rules? Meanwhile, Mark is gearing up for a poker night, and Vanessa wants to catch the eye of one of his recently divorced friends. She plans to dress attractively, but Mark encourages her to go for a more casual look and talk sports instead. During the game, Vanessa surprises everyone by winning their money, while Nicole playfully cuffs Mark, leaving them both locked up without a key.
