Synopsis:

(From TV Guide)
Wayne Brady guest stars as Jackie Wilson, performing “Baby Work Out” on “Bandstand,” while offstage things might be heating up for real between Meg and Jimmy Riley (Jesse Hutch), her dance partner and “fake boyfriend.” As it happens, she realizes this while signing autographs with Jimmy at the Vinyl Crocodile as her ex-boyfriend, Luke (Jamie Elman), looks on, unhappily. Meanwhile, Jack and his brother Ted (Christopher Cousins) decide to open a new store in North Philly and make their brother Pete (Matthew John Armstrong) the manager. This is not good news for Henry.

MEG STRUGGLES WITH HER FEELINGS FOR BOTH HER EX-BOYFRIEND AND FAKE ONE ; WAYNE BRADY GUEST STARS AS JACKIE WILSON -- Making an appearance to sign autographs at the Vinyl Crocodile, Meg (Brittany Snow) struggles with her lingering feelings for ex-boyfriend Luke (guest star Jamie Elman) and rekindled interest in "Bandstand" partner Jimmy Riley (guest star Jesse Hutch). Meanwhile, Jack (Tom Verica) moves forward with Henry’s (Jonathan Adams) suggestion as he investigates the possibility of opening a second store. Prompted by interest from his brother Ted (guest star Christopher Cousins), he decides to make this a family venture enlisting the help of younger brother Pete (guest star Matthew John Armstrong), thus leaving Henry out of the deal. Elsewhere, JJ (Will Estes) pushes Sam (Arlen Escarpeta) to forget about the former teammate's accident and run his best for the rest of the year. Jackie Wilson (Wayne Brady) performs "Baby Work Out" on "American Bandstand." Vanessa Lengies, Gail O’Grady, Sarah Ramos and Ethan Dampf also star.
