Dr. Phil's extrememly opinionated guests enter The Dr. Phil House to test their beliefs as they all live under the same roof. Shirley admits to being a man-hater and calls men idiots and creeps who only think from below the waist. Dick is a chauvinist who says women are whores, and all they are good for is having kids. Kimberly is morally righteous and says if you don’t follow the word of the Bible, you’re going to hell! Jason is anti-society and has a laundry list of judgments, including the belief that 90 percent of people are idiots and mindless sheep. Erin admits to being a racist ... against her own race, and, Crystal judges people all day long and says pretty people should only hang out with other pretty people. When Dr. Phil — and these roommates — drill down on their beliefs, will they address what’s really at the core of their judging, or will they refuse to accept the truth and shut the door behind them?

During their car ride to the marina, the housemates vent their frustrations with what they say is Kimberly’s non-stop complaining. When they arrive and find out they must work together to sail a boat, Erin says she won’t be joining them, because she can’t swim and fears drowning. Kim refuses to board because she says her five housemates don’t like her, and she doesn’t like being attacked. Crystal persuades Erin to join them on the boat, and the others convince Kim that they don’t hate her, and she should come along. But when they return to The House, the venting about Kim continues. The housemates don’t believe she is making an attempt to change, and say all she does is bitch. Kim can’t understand why they don’t like her. Then, Crystal receives a phone call from her boyfriend with news that her son has fallen down, hurt his leg and is now in the hospital, but she comes to find out that her boyfriend made up the story and asked her son to lie. Visibly angered, Crystal threatens to leave the house so she can restore order in her family life.

Crystal suspects that her boyfriend plans to show up at The House, and she becomes enraged. As she packs her belongings to leave, Erin, Jason and Dick try to convince her to stay and continue with the progress she’s made. Although she’s furious with her boyfriend, she chooses to leave The House instead of confront him. Next, Dr. Phil surprises the housemates with a visit. First, he speaks with Kim, who complains that she has been singled out while at The House. Dr. Phil brings out Kim’s sister, Karees, who sheds light on Kim’s typical behavior. Kim won’t acknowledge her faults, and Dr. Phil observes that she is playing the victim. Kim and Karees have a one-on-one conversation, but Kim refuses to listen. Then, the housemates get a chance to take what they’ve learned and test their prejudices in the outside world. They go to the Los Angeles Mission and prepare and serve dinner to the homeless. When they arrive, Erin refuses to get out of the van, but reluctantly, she finally joins the others. After a pep talk from Chef David, Erin decides to commit herself to the activity, and when dinner’s over, she thanks a homeless man for giving her the opportunity to serve him. Kim continues to complain that everyone hates her. Dr. Phil meets with the housemates and asks what they would do differently in their lives in order to have a bigger impact on the world. He questions Dick about making so many generalizations, and tells him that one day he will acknowledge that he shouldn’t have made certain statements. Dr. Phil points out that Jason plays the game of, Get Them Before They Get Me. His suggestion that cool kids in school should reach out to the outcasts as a way of preventing violence, really hits home for Jason, who admits to being an outcast in high school.
