My Pal Pronto

Ray's father is on his yearly rampage to get Ray to shave his sideburns for the family portrait. This is the year that Ray is finally going to stand up to his father and be himself. Of course Mr. Brennan is not at all happy with Ray's decision and gives Ray the choice: be a real Brennan or be the family's boarder. Ray takes his Dad up on the offer of being the family's boarder, no rules and no shaving the sideburns. At the same time Porchop begins a new radio segment entitled "My Pal Pronto" detailing his new life of freedom from his dad's arbitrary family rules. Meanwhile, Lily strives to produce the perfect greeting for the family's answering machine.
