Alex makes a mannequin come to life and goes out with him, in order to make Riley jealous. Meanwhile, Jerry and Theresa go out of town and leave Justin in charge of the household.

Summary[]

Riley breaks up with Alex, seeing she is jealous all the time. She plans to make him jealous and transforms a mannequin into a man with the animation spell, naming him Manny Kin. However, he falls in love with her and develops emotions, which prevents Alex from being able to change Manny back into a mannequin. Alex then tries to make Manny fall in love with Calico Woman, Justin's precious action figure, by animating her too. Riley realizes that he himself got jealous and decided to go back with Alex. Meanwhile, Justin is left in charge of the house when his parents go out of town, and his position of authority goes to his head. A wild goose chase ensues
