26	1	"Alan Gribble Breaks Reality (On Accident)"	Dana Whitlock	Matt Doolan	June 2, 2027	TAGX13	TBD
When Alan becomes obsessed with a new self-help book claiming reality can be “optimized through mindset alignment,” he begins applying its advice to everyday life, treating minor inconveniences as evidence the universe is “lagging.” After loudly declaring that Bayshore is “running on outdated logic,” Alan accidentally inspires the town to start behaving as if they are in a poorly tested simulation—store employees follow rules too literally, customer service loops endlessly, and public announcements begin contradicting themselves. Linda tries to ground the family by insisting nothing supernatural is happening, while Morgan treats the situation like a sociological experiment, Oliver starts exploiting logical loopholes to get out of responsibilities, and Max repeatedly attempts to “clip through walls” by running into them at full speed. The chaos peaks when Alan tries to “reset the day” by recreating his morning perfectly, only to discover Bayshore has moved on without him, forcing him to accept that the world doesn’t need to make sense to function. By nightfall, everything returns to normal, and Alan quietly throws the book away—only to notice a second copy already sitting on the shelf. Cast: Alex Brow as Alan Gribble, Sarah Donnelly as Linda Gribble, Noah Price as Morgan Gribble, Eli Watson as Oliver Gribble, Max Reynolds as Max Gribble, Helen Carter as Mayor Bronson, and Ben Lawson as Gary Plimpton.
27	2	"There Are Too Many Alans"	Dana Whitlock	Kelly DuVall	June 9, 2027	TAGX14	TBD
After Alan attends a poorly advertised “Productivity Retreat” promising to help participants “unlock parallel outcomes,” he accidentally signs a waiver allowing the organizers to test a theoretical decision-splitting exercise on him, resulting in multiple slightly different versions of Alan existing at the same time around Bayshore. Each Alan embodies a single exaggerated trait—confident Alan takes over a car dealership, anxious Alan barricades himself in the house, petty Alan begins settling old grudges, and relaxed Alan immediately falls asleep in public spaces—while all insist they are the “real” one. Linda attempts to keep the household functional by assigning each Alan a chore, Morgan documents their behavioral differences for a paper, Oliver starts pitting the Alans against each other for entertainment, and Max treats the situation like a collectible set. As the town grows tired of the chaos, the Alans are forced to merge back together during a group mediation session that devolves into shouting, passive-aggression, and one heartfelt apology that no one remembers making. The episode ends with a single, exhausted Alan returning home, only to find a name tag on the fridge reading “Alan (Prime?)”. Cast: Alex Brow as Alan Gribble and all Alan variants, Sarah Donnelly as Linda Gribble, Noah Price as Morgan Gribble, Eli Watson as Oliver Gribble, Max Reynolds as Max Gribble, and Jason Clarke as the Retreat Facilitator.
28	3	"The Invasion That Forgot Why"	Dana Whitlock	Tony Velasquez	June 16, 2027	TAGX15	TBD
When a group of aliens quietly invades Bayshore, no one notices at first because they immediately get bogged down in paperwork, zoning restrictions, and conflicting invasion protocols. Alan becomes involved after being mistakenly assigned as the aliens’ “local human liaison,” tasked with explaining Earth customs he barely understands himself. The aliens struggle to agree on basic goals—half want to conquer, some want to observe, one just wants coffee—leading to endless meetings, poorly timed abductions, and an invasion schedule that keeps slipping due to mandatory lunch breaks. Linda grows increasingly frustrated with the disruption to daily life, Morgan treats the event like a bureaucratic case study, Oliver begins negotiating trade deals on behalf of humanity despite having no authority, and Max accidentally convinces one alien commander that he is Earth’s supreme leader by confidently pointing at random buildings. The invasion collapses when the aliens realize conquering Earth would require filing too many forms, prompting them to declare Bayshore “administratively hostile” and leave without incident. The episode ends with Alan receiving a thank-you plaque from the aliens for “adequate cooperation,” which he immediately uses as a coaster. Cast: Alex Brow as Alan Gribble, Sarah Donnelly as Linda Gribble, Noah Price as Morgan Gribble, Eli Watson as Oliver Gribble, Max Reynolds as Max Gribble, Julian Dennison as Commander Zlark, and Rachel House as Invasion Compliance Officer Trenn.
29	4	"Apocalypse Practice"	Dana Whitlock	Hannah Cole	June 23, 2027	TAGX16	TBD
When Bayshore announces its first-ever “Apocalypse Preparedness Drill” after winning a federal safety grant no one remembers applying for, the town is instructed to rehearse for a variety of vague end-of-the-world scenarios, ranging from asteroid impact to “general vibes collapse.” Alan takes the drill far too seriously, stockpiling supplies, forming neighborhood alliances, and assigning everyone post-apocalyptic job titles based on gut feeling, while Linda treats it as a mild inconvenience and continues her day as normal. Morgan approaches the drill like a controlled experiment, documenting how quickly social order breaks down when rules are unclear, Oliver spreads conflicting apocalypse rumors to see which one people believe first, and Max assumes it’s a themed festival and starts charging admission to his “safe zone” (the treehouse). As the drill escalates, residents begin refusing to end it, enjoying the freedom of pretending consequences no longer exist, forcing the mayor to publicly admit the apocalypse is not, in fact, happening. The episode ends with Bayshore returning to normal, Alan disappointed that society didn’t collapse properly, and a follow-up email announcing the drill was rated a “qualified success” despite no one following the instructions. Cast: Alex Brow as Alan Gribble, Sarah Donnelly as Linda Gribble, Noah Price as Morgan Gribble, Eli Watson as Oliver Gribble, Max Reynolds as Max Gribble, Helen Carter as Mayor Bronson, and Ben Lawson as Gary Plimpton.
30	5	"Alan Gribble, Thought Leader"	Dana Whitlock	Eric Faulkner	June 30, 2027	TAGX17	TBD
After Alan gives an offhand rant at a coffee shop about how “people don’t think anymore,” a clipped recording of it is uploaded online and accidentally goes viral, turning him into a reluctant motivational figure whose vague complaints are interpreted as profound philosophy. Strangers begin quoting Alan back to himself, forming discussion groups, wearing merch with slogans he doesn’t remember saying, and asking him to “clarify the doctrine,” which he absolutely cannot do. Linda is horrified as Alan leans into the attention despite having no idea what his followers believe, Morgan tracks the movement’s growth like a case study in accidental ideology, Oliver starts inventing fake Alan quotes to see which ones catch on, and Max sells homemade “official” merchandise until threatened with legal action by Alan himself. The situation spirals when a weekend retreat is organized in Alan’s honor, forcing him to deliver a keynote speech where he panics and admits he has no answers and just likes being listened to. The crowd applauds anyway, declaring his honesty “the most powerful message of all,” before immediately moving on to the next viral figure. The episode ends with Alan deleting his social media accounts, relieved, until a new video titled “Alan Gribble Was Right” appears on Linda’s phone. Cast: Alex Brow as Alan Gribble, Sarah Donnelly as Linda Gribble, Noah Price as Morgan Gribble, Eli Watson as Oliver Gribble, Max Reynolds as Max Gribble, Ben Lawson as Gary Plimpton, and Jason Clarke as Retreat Organizer Dan.
