Following his car accident, an injured Bailey dreams about what life would have been like had his parents not been killed. As Bailey finds the preparations for his mom and dad's thirty-fifth wedding anniversary celebration well underway, Claudia arrives home early from a world concert tour, while Stanford roommates Julia and Justin prepare to announce their engagement. And as Bailey worries about how to tell his parents that he's flunking out of school, Charlie gets word that a girlfriend is pregnant. As Will and Bailey agree to drop out of college to work on a rock band's tour, Claudia considers giving up her concert career in order to spend more time at home. During a visit with his girlfriend to see a pregnancy counselor, Charlie meets Kirsten. And after running into him at an auto repair shop, Julia tracks down Griffin at a bar, only to balk at the suggestion that she come home with him. While Julia begins questioning her engagement to Justin, Bailey struggles to find the nerve to admit that he's quitting school. Meanwhile, as Kirsten suggests that Charlie could be a good father if he chose to, Bailey fails to show up to leave on the tour with Will. With last minute preparations for the party keeping Charlie and Bailey busy, Griffin encourages Julia to work out her problems with Justin. And after Charlie thanks Kirsten for helping him and Felicia to decide on finding adoptive parents for their baby, Claudia decides to go back on the road after all. Finally, Julia puts off Justin's marriage proposal for now, while Bailey is persuaded to join the family business. And once the surprise party gets underway, Bailey wakes up to find that no one was hurt in the crash and decides to check into rehab.
