Greg and Rodrick don't get along, and his parents are fully aware of that. In order to help them get along, Greg's mother introduces Mom Bucks, which rewards them for getting along. But Rodrick isn't the only problem. He has to deal with any conflicts involving Holly Hills, as well as other embarrassing situations. Will Greg and Rodrick get along? As their father and their mother think about their punishments, Greg tries to apologize, but Rodrick only says that they are no longer friends.

Greg is grounded for 2 weeks with no video games. Rodrick is grounded for 1 month and is not allowed to participate in the talent show. He is also only allowed to drive to school and back for 1 month. Rodrick begs them to give him a different punishment, but they refuse. Devastated by his punishment, Rodrick tells Greg he is dead.

Then Greg and Rodrick spend the weekend with their grandfather in his retirement home. Greg reunites with Holly at the retirement home and bond over their mean older siblings and irritating little siblings. Greg writes his feelings in his diary believing running into Holly was a change of fortune, which Rodrick gets a hold of and reads out loud, waking Greg up. Rodrick then threatens to tell Holly and runs towards the lobby to do so.

Greg chases after Rodrick in his underwear and manages to snatch away the diary. He runs to the bathroom, rips out the pages of the diary, and flushes them down the toilet. He discovers he is in the ladies' bathroom, but manages to escape the mob of angry women who think he is a "peeping tom". However, he finds that Rodrick caught everything on tape via a security camera and an old VCR and threatens to show it to everyone sooner or later.

At the talent show a few nights later, Rowley 's performance is unable to take place, as his about-to-be eight-year-old assistant Scotty gets stage fright. Greg's mom says Greg will do the show with Rowley, but Greg refuses, saying that he will look humiliating.

When Rodrick goes to his band, Greg follows and watches Rodrick's band member Bill Walter kick him out of the band he created. Greg bargains with his mom to allow Rodrick to perform in the talent show, saying that if she allows him to perform, he will do the magic show with Rowley. His mom agrees to this, and Rodrick thanks their mom, sees Greg and nods at him for letting him play. The magic show is a hit with the audience and Holly meets Greg and Rowley backstage to tell him she loved their show.

However, Patty Farrell says it was "pathetic" and got bird poop dumped on her. Rodrick and his band performed but the crowd is not impressed, until they see Greg's mom dancing and start to dance along. Greg is happy for finally having fixed the problems with his family. Rodrick drives Greg to school, as the boys have now forgiven each other. Rodrick also gives him a tape containing that "embarrassing moment" at Leisure Towers. Greg ends up touching Jeremy Pindle and got the Cheese Touch.

Greg states how his best friend, Rowley Jefferson , went to South America for the summer and complains of Rowley's actions after his return. He then says that in French class, he is getting a pen pal. Greg then writes how his Mom has been trying to get him and Rodrick to bond but doesn't work out after she spots Rodrick pushing Greg.

Greg states that Rodrick can treat him any way he wants because he knows the most embarrassing thing that happened to him over the summer and decides to dig some dirt of his own. Unluckily, Susan got the idea to use Mom Bucks for the two of which they could cash in for real dollars. The problem was: each Mom Buck was worth a penny. Meanwhile, his Dad works on a replica of the Civil War , telling Manny and Rowley that the furnace room is off-limits.

Rowley starts telling Greg of his trip but leaves after Greg starts talking about his life. Frank tries to sneak out to work on his replica, but he is caught by Susan and forced to go to bed early with Manny , who is scared of the "monster" in the furnace room. Following that, Frank decides to take Greg to the mall every Saturday to escape hearing any of Loded Diper 's practices and seeing Bill Walter.

Returning home, Frank manages to get rid of teenagers crowding his driveway much to his wife's dismay. Greg then changes focus to Manny and how he broke one of his video game consoles. Manny tries to forgive him by giving him a ball of tinfoil with toothpicks to make up for Greg's loss, but Greg loses it. Greg states that he got his first pen pal letter from Mamadou Montpierre , but decides to write in English instead of French. He also states that Rowley ended up sitting on Manny's 'gift' and he throws it away.

Meanwhile, Rodrick is forced to type his own paper by Susan but finally gets Frank to do it for him to his delight. Greg notices the arrival of his old friend, Chirag Gupta , and is thrilled to see him back, but decides to play a practical joke he got from his mom, the Invisible Chirag. The whole class gets in on the joke, but Chirag manages to find their weakness: Rowley.

Greg does some quick-thinking and manages to keep the joke going. Chirag reports Greg to Vice Principal Roy , but he gets the names mixed up, thinking the victim was a boy named Sharif , allowing the prank to carry on. Rowley's birthday is coming up, so Greg tells his Mom to pay for a gift. Greg starts to complain he doesn't have any money so Susan creates the Mom Bucks program as a way to get cash. Rowley's birthday party starts and he receives a diary, much to Greg's horror.

On top of that, Chirag tells his Dad about the joke and Mr. Gupta tells Susan. Susan takes Greg to Rowley's house, who reveals the truth in no time flat and takes Greg to Chirag to apologize. Chirag decides to forgive him and so does Greg as they reconcile their friendship. Susan, however, is mad at Greg because he lied to her and she makes him be honest, but allows him to stop after Greg proves himself.

Career Day is at school and Greg notices Rowley talking about nursing with girls and decides to read his diary to see if they're talking about him, but in order to do that, he needs a key to open the diary. He cashes in half of his Mom Bucks to buy the same exact diary as Rowley's in order to get the key. Using the key, Greg opens Rowley's diary but spots nothing except for recorded Dinoblazer Action Figure battles that Rowley got on his birthday. Rodrick calls his friends and tells them he's hosting a party.

Greg decides to keep his mouth shut to experience the party because he has never seen a high school party, but Rodrick traps him in the basement.

The following day, Rodrick forces Greg into helping him clean up the mess.
