Thirteen-year-old Cooper Wrather and his younger sister Cami host an online show titled Would You Wrather?, in which they ask their 100,000 viewers, known as Wratherheads, to vote on "would you rather" questions to help them crowdsolve problems. Jenna Wrather, the mother of the four Wrather siblings, has decided to start dating following the death of her husband two years earlier. At school, Cooper's crush, Peyton, turns down his offer to go to an upcoming school dance together because of overdue homework she must finish on the night of the dance. Later, Cooper is upset when he learns Cami helped Jenna sign up for a dating website, as he believes Jenna is simply bored and needs a hobby. Coop and Cami are dismayed to learn Jenna plans to go on a date with their school principal, Mr. Walker, so they consult the Wratherheads for advice. With the date set for the same night as the dance, Coop decides to ask his mother out as his date, and she reluctantly agrees while cancelling her date with Principal Walker. However, Peyton arrives at the dance after finishing her homework early, and Jenna encounters Principal Walker at the dance. Coop later tells Jenna that he is uncomfortable with her dating anyone, but he decides he is okay with it after talking with her.

During their show, Cooper accidentally reveals that Cami still sleeps with a stuffed animal hippo named Ho Ho. Feeling embarrassed, she says that she outgrew Ho Ho years ago and now plans to donate the toy, but she is secretly upset when she later learns Cooper has donated it for her. Cami is running in a school election to become social chair, but she has trouble sleeping without Ho Ho. When she reveals this to Coop and Fred, they try to help her get over Ho Ho, but they are unsuccessful. Cami's competitor in the school election, Minty, reveals that she has Ho Ho and will return the toy if Cami admits her love for it during her campaign speech. Cami agrees, but after she speaks to the class, Coop and Fred reveal their own secrets, prompting the rest of the class to do so. Cami subsequently wins the election. Meanwhile, Charlotte has always believed her mother's story of how a burglar stole Charlotte's Ms. Fancy Pants doll. However, Charlotte discovers her mother lied and actually buried Ms. Fancy Pants throughout the backyard. Jenna confesses that she got rid of the doll because Charlotte was too obsessed with it.

The Glamtronics, a singing group at school, agree to let Charlotte audition in exchange for an appearance on Would You Wrather? to promote their upcoming school concert. Coop and Cami later learn that the leader of the group, Manny, does not plan to put Charlotte in the group and is only using the show for the group's promotion. Cooper and Cami get revenge on the group by sabotaging their live musical performance on the show. Cooper and Cami then reveal the truth to Charlotte. Manny quits the Glamtronics after the other members criticize him, and Charlotte joins the group to replace him. Meanwhile, Ollie gets in trouble at school after pouring garbage on the desk of a classmate, Benjamin, who Ollie believes is the son of his wrestling idol, the Garbage Collector. Ollie dumped the garbage because he thought it would make Benjamin happy and prompt him to invite Ollie over to meet his father. Jenna later learns that Benjamin's father is a garbage man, not a wrestler, although he agrees to put on a Garbage Collector mask and pose as the wrestler to make Ollie happy.

After Principal Walker makes an unexpected appearance on Would You Wrather?, the students begin to think that he and Cooper are best friends, and they start shunning Cooper as a result. Cooper executes a failed prank on Walker in an attempt to convince the students they are not friends. Cami then helps Cooper with a new plan by greasing a school stage ahead of a speech that will be given by Walker. Shortly before the speech, Cooper calls off the prank and explains his dilemma to Walker, who sympathizes with Coop. Walker then voluntarily walks onstage and slips so he can blame Coop, convincing the students that they are not friends. Walker and Cooper agree to remain friends away from school, while maintaining a student-principal relationship during school. Meanwhile, Charlotte gets a job at the snack bar of a local ice rink, and the coach of Ollie's hockey team mistakes Fred for one of his seven-year-old players and has him play on the team during tryouts. Fred does well on the team, but Ollie is annoyed that Fred is not being a team player. Charlotte, annoyed by Fred's presence at the rink, informs the coach that Fred has been lying about his age, which gets him removed from the team.

Jenna is upset that Coop and Cami are not better role models for Ollie, who they regularly feature on their show doing dangerous stunts. Cooper and Cami say they will treat Ollie better, but they lose him at the mall while shopping with him. Believing that some Wratherheads may be at the mall, Cooper and Cami decide to ask them for search help via their show, but their mother receives an alert every time they live stream. At the Wrather house, Fred must get Jenna's cell phone away from her so Coop and Cami can ask the Wratherheads for help without their mother finding out they lost Ollie. To distract Jenna, Fred has her and Charlotte participate in phone-free meditation. Coop and Cami are unable to locate Ollie, and later become trapped in the mall after closing time. They subsequently find that Ollie was with a mall security guard, who they had previously avoided in order to prevent their mother from finding out. However, when the children return home, Jenna checks her phone messages and discovers from the mall security that Ollie had been lost. To continue appearing on Would You Wrather? and to keep Coop and Cami out of trouble, Ollie accepts responsibility for getting lost in the mall.

Cami is upset when Charlotte decides to skip an annual sled race between the two that they have held for years, to instead spend a night with her friends at home. As revenge, Cami makes several attempts to sabotage Charlotte's get-together, with help from Fred and Ollie. However, Charlotte eventually reveals that she has been secretly working on a new sled in hopes of beating Cami in the race, while the get-together was meant as a distraction so Cami would not have much time to work on her sled this year. Charlotte wins the race for the first time. Meanwhile, when Principal Walker becomes sick, Jenna has a spare ticket for an opera and chooses Cooper to go with her, despite his reluctance. At the opera, Jenna uses the restroom while he uses her cell phone to play a video game. The lead singer, distracted by Cooper's use of a phone during the show, confiscates the phone. Jenna returns to the audience, and when she falls asleep during the show, Coop sneaks backstage to retrieve the phone from a wheelbarrow. However, he is wheeled out onto the stage and is challenged by the singer to compete against him through singing. Coop impresses the singer and the audience, and the singer returns the phone to him.

Jenna wants the family to have a classic Wrather Christmas similar to when her husband was alive. To help achieve this, Charlotte begins decorating the front yard with Christmas decorations, as her father used to do. Jenna is upset that Ollie keeps opening everybody's Christmas gifts early and spoiling the surprise, so Coop tells him the family story of Kramplemoose, an evil moose who punishes misbehaving children. However, Ollie does not believe the story, so Coop and Fred make several attempts to scare him into believing. Meanwhile, Cami and Minty are competing to receive the most donations for a food bank. Minty becomes trapped at the Wrather house during a snow storm, and Charlotte's decorations cause a power outage in the house, while Fred and Cooper's Kramplemoose ideas disrupt the family's Christmas celebrations, upsetting Jenna. Later, Cami and Minty venture out into the snow to try collecting more money to beat each other in the competition, but when Minty falls in the snow and loses a boot, Cami decides to turn back and help her, forgetting about the competition. Meanwhile, Charlotte has ordered a live moose as part of her outdoor Christmas display, but when it arrives in the front yard, Ollie believes it is Kramplemoose and says he will now behave. Eventually, the Wrathers spend a peaceful time together, although they learn that the moose Charlotte ordered never arrived due to the snow storm.

Cooper learns that Peyton, who had moved away, will be moving back to town and attending his school again. To impress Peyton, Cooper decides to get a tattoo of her face on his arm, but he passes out after seeing the tattoo needle. While he is unconscious, the tattoo artist, Jillian, accidentally paints an arm on his face instead. Cooper has Fred apply a concealer spray to hide the tattoo, but it later turns his face orange, so Coop applies makeup to hide the discoloration. Fred, inspired by a Spanish soap opera, puts on an elaborate ceremony at school to mark Cooper and Peyton's reunion, making her happy. Meanwhile, Jenna, who is a real estate agent, goes out of town for a day to attend a conference, leaving Charlotte in charge until her return later that night. When Jenna's return flight is canceled, she has Principal Walker watch the children, but Cami sabotages his attempts to bond with them.

Cooper has Fred fill in for Jenna, hoping he will lead the team to success and be forgiven by Cami, who is still upset at him over the stunt mishap. Fred eventually finds the key to the exit door, but declines to let the team win until Cami explains why she is still upset at him. She reveals that she is a perfectionist and sometimes wishes she could be more like him, as he is not easily bothered when things do not go as planned. She forgives him, and the team wins. Meanwhile, at Ollie's school, Jenna is upset that some of the other children were heavily helped by their parents in creating their projects. She is later disappointed to learn that Ollie reused Cami's old project as his own, and that the other Wrather children had used the same project in the past as well. Jenna also realizes she was the one who initially made the project.

Coop tries to perform Bonafonte's classic ice skating move but fails, prompting Bonafonte to show everyone the correct move. Afterward, Bonafonte decides to keep the rink open.

They end up recycling the sculpture, not realizing that it was art, but they later recover the pieces and reassemble it. However, the sculpture is missing a baby doll head from before, so Fred reluctantly gives up the head from his Lil Fred puppet as a replacement. At the auction, Nils makes an unexpected appearance and is disappointed to see that his sculpture has been altered, but he is happy when it sells for $10,000. Later, Charlotte gets Fred an identical puppet to replace Lil Fred. Meanwhile, Cami and Ollie have been bickering lately, and Jenna feels the need to have a spa day to relax. She brings Cami and Ollie along to wait in the lobby while she has her spa treatment, but the two continue to argue, ultimately getting the trio kicked out. Although Cami is older now and wants more personal space, Jenna convinces her that Ollie simply misses spending time with her and has been annoying her to get her attention.

Cami is late to school because Jenna had to drop off paperwork first. Although it is not Cami's fault, Principal Walker gives her detention, saying that she is not exempt from the rules just because he and Jenna are dating.

Jenna is also upset at Walker for giving Cami detention, and she happily joins in on Cami's plan upon learning of it. They intend to use a mouse to scare off Mr. Kramsky, who oversees detention and has a fear of mice, but the plan is ruined when Walker fills in for Kramsky.

Desperate to win Neve back, Fred dresses up like a skateboarder to get her attention, but Charlotte convinces him that he should be himself instead.
