PJ's college gal pal breezes into the Windy City from New York City with her three friends, but they prove to be a flighty, snobby crew. Worse, they seem to be heavily influenced by the “Sex and the City” gang. Meanwhile, Brendan begins to act like an egotistical jerk; and Andy tries to evade his overly friendly neighbor.
The boys are on pins and needles when Kenny, Mike, Brendan and Bobby decide to compete in a shirt creation contest. The stakes are high as the prize for the winner is free drinks for a month. Meanwhile, PJ is hoping to write a book about a baseball player, Andy spends long hours at his job, and Brendan wants to learn to become a bartender.
Andy tries to prove a rumor is false in which he is having an affair with a coworker. Elsewhere, Bobby's family is making a disaster of the wedding plans; Kenny's winning streak when it comes to romance continues; Brendan works as a temp at a mail room; and Stephanie's new book includes references of the gang.
Spring fever hits the Windy City as springlike warmth during the middle of winter prompts PJ and Bobby to hold a picnic in the park...but a crucial life decision complicates the outing. Meanwhile, Kenny begins a new relationship, and Mike tries vainly to emulate actor Mathew McConaughey by buying a dog and a Jeep.
The guys figure how to make Facebook and the internet work for them, but a romance may need to be rebooted after Bobby learns way too much information about PJ on there. Elsewhere, Mike and Brendan each try to find out as much information on a comely woman as possible, Mike by use of the internet and Brendan by use of old technology.
The gang head to Arizona to watch some spring training baseball. P.J. writes about the beginning of baseball season in order to keep all her bases loaded, but comes down with a case of writer's block. Meanwhile, Brendan has caught the eye of a player's girlfriend, and a lonely Andy remains back in Chicago.
P.J. and friends reunite virtually almost a decade after the final episode of My Boys. Part of EW's #UnitedAtHome series, and charity special for Kids in the Spotlight
