When Al utters "I can't believe I actually got to talk to the pioneer of home repairs", Tim's ego can't take the blow. Then, Tool Time sponsor Mr. Binford announces that Bob Vila will be the guest in the following day's episode. What's even worse, Mr. Binford wants Tim to face Bob Vila in a challenge... At home: Tim makes Jill prep him for trivia questions. Randy has been bad at school - he got caught for bullying. Jill announces that she will invite the boy, Curtis, to come to their house so that Randy can apologize in person. However, when Curtis asks Jill how old she is and compares her to his grandma, then tells on the phone to his mom that their house is cooler and that Jill is much heavier than her, Jill's goodwill starts to evaporate.
