"No, Dad, no. Okay, it needs to go up," Maddie instructed her father as he tried to put up a banner for Liv, her twin sister. "More. More. Up more. Down a tiny bit. Perfect. Twin sister offically welcomed. Bam! What? Okay. Mom? Snack update. Where's Livs favorite dip?"

"Oh, you mean this dip?" Joey asked. Maddie turned to see her two brothers eating the dip and her best friend, Frankie Moore, about to dip a carrot in.

"You three are eating the dip? This is Wisconsin! You can't welcome people home without dip. You three are offically banned from the Welcome Home Zone!"

Frankie

"Maddies been pretty freaked out about Liv coming home. They haven't seen each other in years so I can't imagine how she's feeling right now. I would like to not fear for my life if I step within 10 feet of her, though."

"Maddie, honey, if you're freaking out because your sister Liv is coming home, then -- Then we should talk," Karen told her daughter.

"Mom, she's my twin. My built-in best friend. I'm not freaking out," Maddie said, lying through her teeth.

Maddie

"Of course I'm freaking out! Starting tomorrow, I'm going to school with my celebrity sis. And we have the same face. Yet she's 'The cute one'."

"Hey. Hey, guys. There's a bunch of people with cameras on our lawn," Parker annouced. Frankie found herself standing up straighter. She hadn't become friends with Maddie until after Liv had already left for Hollywood and she was honestly nervous to meet Liv.

"I'll miss you, paparazzi," Liv said to the cameras from her front porch. "When I walk through this door, I will be just another regular 15-year-old girl."

Liv

"I just finished the final season of my smash-tastic tv show -- Sing it Loud! Oh, it was one of those super realistic shows where kids suddenly break into song for no reason. And I loved Hollywood, and I was offered, like, a quizzillion other shows and movies. But I missed my family, and it was time to come home."

Pete opened the front door to reveal Liv on the other side. She squealed the minute she saw Maddie.

"Aah! You stole my face!" She shouted.

"I had it first!" Maddie said back.

"Take notes, that's what it looks like when a girl is happy to see you," Parker told Joey as everyone watched the twins embrace. Frankie snorted and fist bumped the youngest Rooney.

"Thanks, Parker. And this is what it looks like inside my armpit," Joey said, holding his brothers head to his armpit.

"Oh! I was so worried you guys had grown up while I was away," Liv told them.

"Yeah, there's not chance of that happening."

"Uh, the people who gave you life are still waiting for their hug," Pete told his daughter. Once she pulled away from that hug, her gaze shifted curiously towards Frankie.

"Oh! Um, I'm Frankie. I'm Maddie's friend," Frankie said, holding her hand out towards Liv. She suddenly felt awkward under her gaze. She thought she would remind her more of Maddie but she was different. It was the kinda different that kept Frankie wanting to continue staring, that wanted to feel the touch of her hand. It was the kind of different that had Frankie's pulse quickening.

"Nice to meet you, Frankie," Liv said, smiling a smile that almost made Frankie's knees go weak as she shook her hand. "Sorry about the camera-palooza. They're just here for my homecoming."
