Anita's son Tony is behaving in a way that causes Anita to worry, especially since Tony won't tell Anita what's going on. Tony eventually confides in James that he has a crush on a girl named Samantha who lives across the street, but makes James promise not to tell anyone.
Maggie eventually finds out what James knows about Tony, and bribes James (with a hula hoop dance and song) to tell her on the condition that she won't tell Anita. But the truth comes out to Anita who then lets it slip to a very upset Tony, who feels betrayed by James.
To get even with James and prove that grown-ups can't keep a secret, Tony fibs a secret to Anita that James is in love with Maggie. This causes another series of secret-breaking-promises.
