Summary
When Billy's mother realizes that Mandy has become an eternal houseguest, Mandy returns home. But her own parents can't deal with her and they hire a nanny bent in shaping her into a proper young girl.
Plot
At Billy's house, Gladys calls for Harold, Billy and Mandy to report to dinner, but refuses. Gladys' insane temper triggers and she wrecks her husband with a chainsaw, forcing the trio to report to dinner. She, however, excuses Mandy due to realizing that she is an eternal houseguest and constantly remarks as she is not part of the family. She returns home, with her parents terrified and are so scared of her. When she demands dinner, they had enough and decide to call a nanny.
Quotes
*Grim: Hold on, she's the Nanny! Yeah, she's on that television show "Hey Nanny Nanny". It's another one of those annoying reality shows that are all the rage right now! She travels all over the world... and Burbank... helping parents deal with their spoiled rotten brats!
