Jaleel White, star of Family Matters wants to reconnect with his mom Gail, by giving her the adventure of a lifetime in New Mexico. Gail likes to be in control of any situation, so with Jaleel in charge this week, she's in for a few surprises. They start, in a giant off-road vehicle that rumbles through the desert, and a herd of buffalo that get too close for comfort. Next, Gail confronts her fear of insects, by handling 20,000 bees. No trip to New Mexico would be complete without a chili eating contest, and since she also has a fear of heights, of course they finish their adventure soaring above the cliffs in a hot air balloon ride.
