[edit] Plot
Drew is thrilled when he learns that Mr. Bell is allowing him to have a personal assistant. But before Drew can hire his new helper, Mr. Bell makes Mimi his assistant so that Mr. Bell can hire Suzie as his own assistant. Drew and Mimi continue to fight with each other, even in front of a potential employee that Drew is hiring. The feud between the two becomes too troublesome when Mimi throws a stapler at Drew, missing him, and breaks the window of the door to Mr. Bell's office. Mr. Bell decides to suspend both Drew and Mimi, threatening to fire them unless they can end their feud. Meanwhile, Oswald and Lewis fill in on Jay's moving crew. Drew decides to tag along with them when they make a delivery to Mimi's apartment. He tries to talk with her and when Mimi leaves the room he opens a cabinet in her apartment. Drew discovers that the cabinet is filled with multiple photographs of him, and wonders if Mimi is secretly in love with him. When Drew gets back to the office he gives Suzie a job at the jewelry counter so that Bell will re-hire Mimi back as his own assistant. When Drew confronts Mimi about the photographs she explains that she took the photographs of Drew to send to male prison inmates. Luckily for Drew, she never went through with the prank. But Mimi continues to pull pranks when she makes Drew open a drawer in his desk. The drawer was put in the desk upside down and it releases hundreds of marbles when Drew opens it. At the end of the episode, Lewis attempts to pull a prank on Mimi by visiting her at her apartment and tries to sell her a pair of boxers supposedly owned by Antonio Banderas.
