The Heeler girls ask their parents to kiss, finding it romantic. Chilli is surprised that her daughters even know what romance is, and she suggests they teach Bandit about it. The girls decide to set up a pretend, fancy restaurant, and Chilli decides to play that Bandit is her new boyfriend and they're on their first date.
Bluey plays as the head waitress and tells Bandit (who's calling himself Romeo McFlourish) that he's not on the list and has to call and make a booking. When he and Chilli get in, Bingo plays as a chef and serves them baked beans, but Bluey takes her away, saying she's not supposed to serve them yet. She then hands them pretend menus and claims not to know what the special is. She asks Bingo what it is, but she doesn't hear, so Chilli "orders" the baked beans.
Bandit walks up to the girls and tells them to serve something more romantic than baked beans, and they agree and decide to play some "romance music". However, Bluey just plays music badly on a toy synthesiser. Chilli pretends to use a pretend bathroom, while Bluey yells at Bandit for not kissing Chilli. He claims that he's forgotten how to be romantic since he and Chilli haven't smooched in a while.
As Chilli comes back from the fake bathroom, Bluey tells Bandit again to be more romantic, then runs to Bingo, who is making a bizarre combination of food. Just as Bandit is apologising for losing his romantic touch, the girls come in with Bingo's food mess. Chilli pretends to eat it, but the girls demand she actually eat it. Bandit does instead, but it makes him sick.
