Brad is asked to move Dusty's motorcycle from the driveway so Sara can get her car out. The two quickly hit it off, and Dusty even scores a gig as the voice of their radio station mascot, earning him residual pay. Brad takes Dusty to his job at a radio station where Dusty meets Brad's boss Mr. Dusty starts the pissing contest by getting the kids a mangy dog that he calls Tumor ("because he grows on you"). Brad asks Dusty why he's there, and he says he wants to be a good father figure now that Sara has remarried, but he promises to let the kids accept Brad as their new dad. The men go outside and share a beer, and they drop the nice acts to say what they're really thinking. Later, when Dusty tucks the kids into bed, he is obviously trying to look better than Brad by giving the kids $20. He formally meets Brad and comes off as friendly. Dusty is already in there playing with the kids. When Brad gets home, he sees a motorcycle parked outside. Brad approaches the man and asks if he is Dusty, but he says no. Brad goes to pick up Dusty at the airport and is stunned to see a much more handsome and cooler-looking guy descending the escalator. Sara gets worried since Dusty is just showing up out of the blue, but Brad is confident that he can handle him. They pass the phone to Brad, who agrees to pick up Dusty from the airport the next day. Dylan answers and becomes ecstatic to hear his biological dad Dusty's (Mark Wahlberg) voice. The family is watching "The Princess Bride" when the phone rings. Megan invites Brad to the daddy-daughter dance, which makes Brad so happy that he cries. Brad gets excited since he feels he's built trust between him and Dylan (even though he goes ahead and tells Sara). Dylan even confides to Brad that he is being picked on at school by some 4th graders. Still, his biggest hope is for them to see him as an acceptable father figure. Despite his best intentions and hardest attempts, the kids don't really take kindly to Brad. Brad is unfortunately unable to produce children of his own due to an incident at the dentist where his groin was exposed to X-ray radiation. Brad Whitaker (Will Ferrell) is married to Sara (Linda Cardellini) and is stepdad to her two kids Dylan (Owen Vaccaro) and Megan (Scarlett Estevez).
