Complete story — includes the ending

As Evan prepares to open his first bank account and sign his first official document, he agonizes over which name to use: his Chinese name or his American name. He is not satisfied with Jessica's reason for choosing his American name (the nurse who helped deliver him had the last name "Evans"), nor do Jessica's or Louis' stories about how they chose their own American names help. In the end, Grandma Huang convinces Evan that the name he was given is not important; it is what you do in life to make that name important that matters. Guest starring: Jalen Rose as Cool Louis, Busta Rhymes as himself, and Shaquille O'Neal as himself (the President of the United States in Eddie's imaginary future scenario)
