Episode summary
Jo visits the Beck Family in Orange, California. Nicole and Nate Beck are tag-team parents: During the day, Nate works full-time and Nicole stays at home. She also works part-time after Nate gets home and is a full-time design student while raising three rambunctious boys: Hunter, who is 9; Pierson, who is 5 and Bronson, who is 3.
The youngest of three boys, Bronson has just been permanently expelled from preschool for his dominant and aggressive behavior, spits at mom and calls Supernanny a curse word; the oldest, Hunter has Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) and the middle son, Pierson is extremely stubborn.

Trivia
This is the only episode to use the Penalty Box, the Beck Family's own version of timeout that didn't really work for them. Jo has since modified the Penalty Box technique which parallels her Naughty Spot technique.
