Jake has his music, Jammer plays hockey, and K.C. thinks they're all living in a simulation and doesn't see the point of doing much of anything. Becca is the only one with nothing to make her special. But when she finds a tiny, sick piglet on the side of the road, Becca knows this is it. This is her thing. She names the piglet Saucy and between her own pleading and Saucy's sweet, pink face, Becca convinces her family to take her in. Soon, Saucy is as big a part of the family as anyone elseand getting bigger. With each pound Saucy gains, the more capable she becomes of destroying the house and landing Becca in trouble.

Turns out, there are a lot more scared piglets out there, and saving them may take Becca and her brothers finally doing something together.
