!Strangers In The House
->Directed By: Ron Lagomarsino
->Written By: Jill Gordon

Sharon's father, Andy Cherski, suffers a heart attack, and Patty and Graham decide to let Sharon stay with them, forcing Sharon and Angela to confront their estrangement. It also makes Graham have a HeroicBSOD because he's afraid that will happen to him stuck in a job he doesn't like. Patty agrees with that possibility, so she fires him.

!!This episode contains examples of:
* BlatantLies: When Jordan asks why Angela was crying, she says in voiceover, "Because I'm lonely. Because I have no friends. Because I'm a terrible, terrible person." What she says to Jordan is, "Because my friend's father is in the hospital, and he could die."
* CryIntoChest: Three times:
** When Sharon realizes Brian is in the band room, she doesn't berate him for being there during her argument with Kyle, she just goes straight to him, hugs him, and starts weeping. What makes this funny as well as poignant is Brian is the person least emotionally equipped to help her.
** Later, after Angela tells Jordan about Sharon's dad, he hugs her and she starts crying into his chest, until he breaks it off.
** Finally, when Camille learns Andy (her husband and Sharon's dad) is going to be okay, she starts crying into Graham's chest.
-->'''Camille''': [''muffled''] I think it finally hit me.
* DelayedReaction: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Camille, who doesn't cry most of the time in the hospital (with one exception - see HeroicBSOD below) and claims it hasn't hit her yet, until the end, when she hears Andy's okay and she starts to cry (see CryIntoChest above).
* GallowsHumor: While in the hospital waiting room, Camille tells Patty the nurse is convinced Andy had a heart attack because of Camille's sexual demands (or commands), which sends them both into hysterical laughter.
* HeroicBSOD:
** Graham has one the entire episode in reaction to Andy's heart attack.
** After she and Patty laugh about the nurse in the hospital (see GallowsHumor above), Camille has a brief one where she panics and wonders what she'll do without Andy if he dies.
* MeaningfulEcho: In a {{Flashback}} to when Angela and Sharon were younger, Sharon tells her it really hurt to have her tonsils taken out, to which Angela responds, "Squeeze my hand how hard it hurts." Near the end of the episode, when Angela and Sharon finally make up, Sharon tells her their estrangement really hurt, to which Angela responds, "Squeeze my hand how hard it hurts," which makes Sharon laugh in recognition even while she's still crying.
* PetTheDog: Rayanne tells Sharon she and Tino will arrange to drive Sharon to the hospital so she can be with her dad instead of staying in school.
