Plot[]
Kenan and his family move into their home in Pummis, Montana, but the house is very old and torn apart. The chairs and sofas spit out lots of dust anytime someone sits on them, the pipes leak after the toilets are flushed, and even the stairs are broken because whenever people try to go upstairs, they crash into the closet. Their new neighbor, Mrs. Blatt, rings the malfunctioning doorbell and welcomes them by bringing her some of her "mystery chili", which looks and tastes really bad. Kel later comes to Pummis since his parents allowed him to come to Montana to visit Kenan.
Roger gets his new job as a mountain ranger, but his boss simply tells him that he has to give people who come to the cabin (which obviously almost never happens) brochures and do absolutely nothing else, even with a huge box of pencils. Meanwhile, Kenan and Kel go to Pummis Academy in which Kel is just wearing his regular jacket and Kenan looks embarrassed having to wear his special clothes for school. The teacher gets disgusted with Kenan's joke, "A man got sick because of… a fish he ate", while he was supposed to use a word for "officiate". Kenan finally admits that he no longer wants to stay in Pummis, Montana.
Later on, Sheryl and Kyra try to fix the handrail for the stairs, but it falls down. Kyra later says "Pummis sucks beans!" Sheryl says they have to stay in Montana because of Roger's new job, but he later comes through the (now collapsed) door also saying, "Pummis sucks beans!" because his job is not what he expected. The family finally agrees that they should leave Pummis and go back to Chicago, but Roger says they just cannot because he promised the ranger department that he would stay there for two years.
Later in the kitchen, Kenan and Kel try to come up with a plan to make Roger quit his job. Cleeb (Mrs. Blatt's son) then comes through the back door saying, "Hey, Kenan, it's me, your best friend Robert!" since he forgot his own name. Finally, Kenan and Kel tell Cleeb to dress up like a bear and scare Roger into quitting his new job.
Soon, Kenan and Kel meet Roger in the cabin, where a bear attacks and the ranger gets surprised by the chaos. He then fires Roger for being afraid of a "thousand pound killer bear". After that, Kenan and Kel tell Roger about their plan. Cleeb then shows up at the cabin with a very cartoonish and extremely unrealistic bear costume saying, "Hey, Kenan, I'm ready to pretend to be a bear. Grr!", revealing that the bear that attacked their cabin was real. A frightened Kenan whispers to everyone, "I'll meet y'all in Chicago!" before running away from the cabin.
