Amber Brown

Starting middle school without her best friend, Justin, makes Amber all the more grateful for new friend and neighbor Brandi.

Amber and Brandi find a diamond ring, which leads Amber to believe her mom is about to do something Amber's not quite ready for.

Amber sets aside her fears and auditions for the school play, while her dad moves into a new apartment.

It's the night of the play and Amber's nervous. She hopes her dad, who's stuck in traffic, makes it in time to see her debut.

Amber wants to get her ears pierced—just like Brandi—so she enlists the help of Aunt Pam to try persuading her mom.

As the girls get ready for their first school dance, Amber feels bad about disobeying her mom and wants to come clean.

When Amber's new math tutor turns out to be an old crush of her dad's, she and Brandi form a plan so that she'll never need a tutor again.

Amber's house is overrun by a film crew, which has the surprising effect of bringing the family together, much to Amber's delight.

While volunteering at a nursing home, Amber befriends a resident and bends the facility's rules in the spirit of love and friendship.

Season finale. The family rallies together to sneak Cecile back into the nursing home, but the fun is interrupted by unexpected news.
