Since Ozzy must prepare for his "No More Tours II Tour" and Jack must stay in Los Angeles to await his daughter's birth, Jack asks sister Kelly to accompany their father.
While keeping in touch with Jack regarding the birth, Ozzy is looking forward to getting away from all the promotional obligations and Kelly is excited to hit the road with her father. They head for Arizona, where they tour Biosphere 2 and bond over a night of facial masks.
Ozzy and Kelly receive a call from Jack that the baby will soon be born. They make the five-hour trek back to Los Angeles to welcome the newest Osbourne, Minnie Theodora.
