Season 5

Rebecca comes home for a visit after finishing a fashion internship in Los Angeles, but Willie starts wondering how long she plans to stay. She later surprises him with news of her plan to start her own business. After Si contracts what he believes to be bird flu, Phil and Miss Kay let him stay with them while he recovers and end up trying not to let him drive them crazy.

Willie hires Korie's cousin John David as a personal assistant, but Jase, Martin, and Godwin rebel against the idea of having an outsider giving them orders. Si organizes a boring, confusing treasure hunt for Jep's children to keep them occupied while Jessica gets over a cold.

Taking a hint from Jep, Si outfits himself with a pair of wearable cameras so he can record every moment of his daily life. He drives the guys crazy with his nonstop commentary during a deer hunt, treating it as if it were an epic war/survival movie. Willie's plans to take John Luke and Sadie to an LSU football game run afoul of heavy traffic and a balky GPS.

Willie volunteers to join the guys for their latest all-night packing session, but ends up helping Jase track down faulty smoke detectors and falling victim to a prank. Phil gets more than he bargained for when his granddaughters talk him into letting them sleep over with him and Miss Kay.

Jase challenges Willie to a hamburger cook-off, but their very different strategies lead to end results so bad that neither of the judges (Martin and Godwin) wants to eat them. When Jessica decides to take up decoupage, Jep goes hunting for materials and ends up getting tricked by Phil into cleaning the junk out of one of his storage sheds.

When Willie and Jase argue over an old GI Joe toy, it leads them into a debate over who would make a better soldier. To settle the score, Willie and Jase head out to the woods with their friends and children for a paintball match, but the game is cut short when Si gets stuck in a marsh and needs to be rescued. Meanwhile, Jep recruits Martin to help him lay a sidewalk in his front yard, but when they run into some problems, Jep must call on Phil to come save the day.

Jase spends company funds on an all-terrain vehicle as a means of motivating the workers; Kay becomes a text-messaging menace after Willie buys her a new cell phone.

Jase and the guys build a playhouse for Jep's children, but the finished structure ends up looking like a duck blind; Phil and Si tease Willie when a project takes longer than expected to complete.

Sadie spends a day at Duck Commander to learn how a successful company operates; Jase devises a cow blind and puts his invention to the test; Priscilla and Meritt are introduced to mutton busting.

The Robertsons plan a family reunion to give Mia a grand send-off before her surgery.
