1 | 21 October 2003 | Phua Phua Baby | Rosie is pregnant! As the family rejoices, Kang has to come to terms with the fact that he must now start visiting the gynae with Rosie. Kok Peng and Beng try to help Kang overcome his fear of doctors. Aloy's prelim results did not qualify him for JC and he fakes going to school, until Marge decides to do some investigation.

Guest star: Mark Lee as Kok Peng |
2 | 28 October 2003 | Boy Oh Boy! | Kang’s life is thrown into disarray when he realises his child might be a girl. He never took any of the steps to ensure the first-born Phua child would be a boy. In a bungling attempt to rectify the situation, he gets little boys to roll on his bed, puts roosters under his bed and even falls for Margaret’s ridiculous ideas for ensuring a boy!
Kang’s efforts are further hampered by Bobo, who’s decided to build a grand mansion (Mansion De Bobo) with his invention windfall. When Kang discovers that Bobo is shopping around for other construction firms, the friendship is hampered as both men get childishly sensitive. |
3 | 4 November 2003 | The Deal | Not able to withstand his desire to see the design of his new house, Bobo offers Kang a free trip to Las Vegas if he can deliver the design within a week. Kang keeps this deal secret and pushes Beng hard to work but Beng is reluctant since Bobo’s new house will have 27 toilets and he’s sick of designing toilets. Meanwhile, Rosie’s pregnancy gives a natural glow to Rosie’s face that wows everyone except Kang. Margaret, who believes she had the glow of the century when she was pregnant, gets jealous. |
4 | 11 November 2003 | What About Me? | Rosie suddenly realises that her baby is taking over her life. She’s sick in the mornings and nothing tastes good any more unless she splashes tabasco sauce all over it.
It doesn’t help that Kang has a crazy notion that her actions will affect the baby’s appearance and insists that she ‘sits at home, do nothing and just wait for the baby to pop out’. To exert her independence, Rosie decides to take part in an arm wrestling contest. Meanwhile, Margaret finds out she’s shrinking and obsesses over it and Bobo abandons his plans to build his mansion, opting instead for a tiny condo in the city with his one million dollars. |
5 | 18 November 2003 | Father Knows Best | Kang is plagued by nightmares about Pa and fears he might turn out to be a cruel father just like him. The Phua boys reminisce about the ‘bad old days’ where Pa screwed up their first loves, career plans and generally quashed their self-esteem. They then hypothesize about the year 2013, and the type of person Kang’s baby boy will grow up to be. The potential reality doesn’t look good. The child may end up a thug like Kang or a sissy like Beng!
Margaret is stunned when she finds out she won’t be the baby’s godmother. She feels it’s revenge for not having made Kang and Rosie Aloysius’s godparents. She goes to extreme lengths, from throwing a godparents party to learning mahjong from Rosie to singing a karaoke duet. All in a ‘lian’ effort to prove she’s worthy of the ‘godmother’ title. Meanwhile, King Kong decides that if Bobo can be an inventor, so can he. This kick starts a series of ridiculous and hilarious King Kong Inventions like the ‘Tau Huay XJ 2000’, ‘Anti-Bacteria So Bright Light Bulb 2000’ and even a ‘High Class Tiffin Carrier 2000’! |
6 | 25 November 2003 | Nature Vs Nurture | Kang and Rosie go all out to make sure they’ll have a smart baby when Marge tells them that their baby will be stupid since it will inherit Kang and Rosie’s “cannot pass PSLE” genes. Ironically, Aloysius comes home with bad O level results and doesn’t qualify for JC. Meanwhile, King Kong and Ah Goon buy a pedigree dog from their uncle with high hopes that they can train it to become a champion dog. |
7 | 2 December 2003 | Worst Case Senario | It’s the annual football grudge match between PCK United and Frankie Foo Warriors. Having lost every match to the Warriors since 1995, Kang is intent on doing ANYTHING to win. Including re-designing his koi pond for better feng shui. Enter Ram DMC Landscaping & Lontong (D-Daud; M-Mydeen; C-Chewbacca). Ram DMC are played by four of Malaysia’s top comediennes (Ram - Saiful, Daud - Azlee, Mydeen - Mazlan and Chewbacca - Wahid) from the hit TV show, Senario. |
8 | 9 December 2003 | He Ain't Heavy He's My Baby | Rosie is getting bigger and more uncomfortable as each day passes. She complains to Kang all the time. Kang doesn’t understand why she’s making such a big fuss when it’s ‘no big deal’ to be pregnant. Rosie bets with Kang that he can’t survive one day being ‘pregnant’. Kang agrees to wear a 10kg belly bag for an entire day.
Beng is dead set against working on a HDB kopitiam toilet upgrading job and does all he can to prevent Kang from submitting a tender for the job. Aloysius breaks up with Lynette but doesn’t tell the family. |
9 | 16 December 2003 | All The President's Man | Beng is depressed about not having been president of anything in his life. Kang decides to help him become president - of Public Toilets! Marge is livid about being First Lady of Toilets and wants to get out. Rosie is trying to get the workers to clean out the office but to no avail, and decides to enlist the help of a small boy (played by Zureen Abd Rahman from Kid’s Central and Suria) to teach them a lesson. Aloy is on a quest to get parental permission to become a rock musician. |
10 | 23 December 2003 | Livin La Vida Rosie | Ricky Martin is in Singapore, and Rosie goes to great lengths to win the ‘Spend an evening with Ricky’ contest, from learning Spanish, to cooking his favourite food to memorising his bio. Kang pretends to be mature about it but secretly does everything in his power to undermine Rosie’s chances of ever meeting Ricky. Even though Kang loves the ‘Cup of Life’ song, he doesn’t see what the huge fuss is. He’s just as sexy and talented as Ricky, if not, more so.
Bobo is in complete agreement. He reveals his ‘Anti-Ricky’ campaign, ever since he got dumped by a girl because of Ricky Martin. Bobo intends to gate crash the concert and prove once and for all, who has the best bon-bons! Margaret goes overboard when she realises that President S.R. Nathan will be attending a Public Toilet Launch, designed by Beng. Finally having the opportunity to elevate her social standing, she turns a small, charming evening into a night of operatic madness.

Meanwhile, there is a mad scramble for Aloysius' room when he announces that he is going to leave the nest to tour with a grunge band. |
14 | 20 January 2004 | Citizen Phua | Kang freaks out over PCK Pte Ltd’s biggest net loss in history. Kang starts blaming everyone – Beng, Margaret, Rosie, King Kong, the pregnancy, SARS, Mimi, Jasper – anything except himself. Kang wants to institute severe cost-cutting measures – from no tau huay breaks to even cheaper materials to saving on stationery. After much persuasion, the Phuas decide to hire a professional and reputable financial consultancy firm that has turned many near bankrupt companies into profitable ventures and may be able to turn fledgling PCK Pte Ltd into a more productive company by trimming the fat.
Enter Yusof Ahmad who proceeds to paint differing scenarios for PCK Pte Ltd’s business options and social strata. His economic spiels are constantly interrupted by Margaret and Rosie who drool over his good looks and Bobo, who’s on a vendetta to prove to his ex-classmate, Yusof, that he too is extremely successful now.

Meanwhile, Margaret is intent on filming every aspect of the expectant mother and the birth, and starts annoying Rosie with a camera in her face.
Beng has turned extremely kiasu and is in high gear getting Kang prepared for the birth. Beng regiments the trial runs with military precision and is dissatisfied with the timing. Kang manages to escape Beng’s clutches and meets a client he hopes to secure in a multimillion-dollar deal. Minutes after signing the contract, Rosie’s water breaks and turns the well planned, well oiled, well run operation into pandemonium. |
