Picking up from the end of Young Sheldon, newlyweds Georgie Cooper and Mandy McAllister, along with their infant daughter Cece, are living with Mandy's parents Audrey and Jim, and her younger brother Connor. Georgie works at Jim's auto and tire shop, much to the disdain of fellow employee Ruben who believes Georgie doesn't deserve authority over him. Mandy and Audrey have an argument when Audrey implies that as Cece is not talking yet (despite her being less than a year old), she could be dumb like Georgie. As a result, Georgie & Mandy decide to move out to a small place near the train tracks. They are given some housewarming gifts by Georgie's mother Mary, and grandmother, Connie. After talking with Jim, Audrey apologizes to Mandy and they return to the house. As Georgie starts to confront Audrey for insulting him, Cece says "Dada"; her first word through the baby monitor.

Title quotation from: Georgie, at the dinner table, announcing the train that's passing by his and Mandy's new home.

Georgie visits his father, George Sr.'s, grave. He claims he can handle the responsibilities of both his old family and new family with Mandy. Ruben taunting him, Audrey undercutting him, Mandy's job search and his younger sister Missy all add to his stress. Missy has him pick her up after she is suspended from school for pulling the fire alarm to get out of a test. At home, Mandy suggesting they may move for her job prospects sets Georgie off and he accuses Audrey of the idea. He storms out but goes to the hospital believing he's having a heart attack. The doctor says it is actually a panic attack. He returns and tells Mandy. They make up and Georgie apologizes the next day to Audrey. Georgie returns to George's grave and admits he doesn't have it all under control and admires how George did it. He later brings Missy to the grave where she lets out some of her grief.

Title quotation from: Georgie's reaction when the doctor explains what a panic attack and anxiety is.

Georgie receives his first credit card, leading Mandy to reveal she is in credit card debt of about $12,000 from an irresponsible past. Among her most expensive purchases is a hospital visit for an ex-boyfriend, Nick. Georgie decides that he should get the money that is owed to her, and so gets Nick's address from Jim. Nick is apologetic and writes a check for the money he owes, but when Georgie attempts to cash it at the bank, it is invalid. Nick then shows up at the bank and tells Georgie he is about to get his money by proceeding to rob the bank and Georgie flees. Mandy goes back to her prior waitressing job to start paying off her debt, with Audrey watching Cece. In order to help out and make more money at work, Georgie has the idea to use his credit card on softball uniforms for the local police department; in turn they will page Georgie when people need a tow truck from Jim's store.

Tired of always hanging out with her parents, Mandy goes to a bar with another waitress Beth, (Casey Wilson), who wants to have fun after her divorce. Taking Georgie to Beth's house, everyone is surprised when Beth's son Todd recognizes Georgie from high school and is only a year younger than him. Todd invites Georgie to go dirt biking with his friends. Mandy says it is too dangerous but Georgie accuses her of acting like his mother and goes anyway. He enjoys it but ends up acting like a parent himself when the other guys try to add alcohol to the mix. Mandy goes back to the bar with Beth, and Beth ends up making out with Mandy's dentist. Mandy pages Georgie and they return home to Cece together. Meanwhile, Audrey and Jim get competitive trying to guess the answer to a game of 20 Questions with Connor.

As the first Thanksgiving since George Sr.'s death approaches, Georgie and Mandy offer to spend it with Mary. Mary declines, saying she wants to be alone (giving Missy permission to go to a friend's house), and not do anything for her first holiday without her husband. Seeing that Georgie is hurting, Mandy is able to convince Connie and her boyfriend Dale to come to the McAllister house for the dinner. Missy also agrees after Mandy takes her to get a dolphin tattoo on her ankle. Mary still refuses. On the day, Mary decides to come after all, but gets emotional as hearing Audrey argue about Jim's drinking reminds Mary of her and George. Georgie has the idea to take Mary and Missy to have pie at George's grave. Mary discovers the tattoo. Back at the house, Connor plays the accordion and Dale his guitar.
