ABC’s “Shifting Gears” takes a comedic turn into some slightly sticky territory this Wednesday. In “Gummies,” the family faces an unexpected dilemma when Riley discovers weed gummies in Carter’s pocket. The discovery sparks a chain of events that tests the family’s communication skills and offers a fresh perspective on intergenerational advice-giving.
Matt’s reaction to the gummy situation is anything but typical. Instead of the expected parental freak-out, he offers some surprisingly understanding – and unconventional – guidance. Meanwhile, on a completely different front, Eve’s attempt to do a good deed backfires spectacularly. Her request for Gabriel and Stitch to donate to a charity auction lands them in hot water, proving that even the best intentions can have hilariously awkward consequences.
“Gummies” blends lighthearted humor with an exploration of teenage drug use and the nuances of family relationships. Will Riley and Carter find common ground? Will Matt’s advice be helpful or just add fuel to the fire? And how will Gabriel and Stitch extricate themselves from the mess Eve has inadvertently created? Tune in to ABC this Wednesday, March 12th at 8:00 PM to find out.
