The episode starts with a flashback to Octavia as a child crying for her parents. When Stolas gets to her room to see what is wrong, she says she had a nightmare where she couldn't find him anywhere in the palace. Stolas comforts her saying how he will always be there for her and sings her a song (You Will Be Okay) as she falls asleep.

It then cuts to the present, where Octavia is awoken by her parents fighting, after her mother discovered that Stolas had slept with an Imp. Getting put of bed, she picks a song from her hellphone and walks through the estate, passing a broken pot plant her mother had thrown on her way into the kitchen. In the kitchen, Octavia gets herself a cup of coffee and grabs a box of cereal while her parents continue arguing, with her mother tossing an Imp at her father, asking if he'd like to sleep with this one too, before storming out of the kitchen.

Stolas then notices Octavia is there, and acting like nothing is amiss asks if she slept well and what song she is listening to. As Stolas grabs a piece of meat from the fridge to feed a house plant, Octavia tells him that she is listening to a song called "My World is Burning Down Around Me" by "Fuck You Dad". Octavia then asks if her parents are done screaming for the day, causing Stolas to pause, before he hears his wife break something off screen. Stolas then starts talking about taking Octavia to Loo Loo Land, which Octavia tries to get out of, saying that she isn't five anymore. Stolas continues, asking if she'd like to go anyway, just the two of them, as she was always so happy there.

Octavia says that she would rather kill herself, which Stolas ignores, reasoning anything is better than staying in the house, and that he'll arrange security. Octavia questions why they need security at a theme park, and Stolas tells her that they are rich and hot, saying people want their bodies and money. As Stolas begins dialing a number on a rotary phone, Octavia agrees with the money part, but questions the body part. Stolas quietly says speak for yourself, before loudly saying he's dialing the only man who can fuck him, to Octavia's disgust. Stolas continues as if he hadn't said anything, as Octavia groans and pulls her beanie down over her face.

Cutting to Blitzo's office, showing a partially undressed Blitzo in a photo that has had "#1 Bitch" written over to read "#1 Boss", Blitzo is playing with office supplies he made into simple puppets of his employees, Millie and Moxxie. Doing fairly poor impressions of them, he pretends they are praising his work ethic and want to sleep with him, and he shoves the puppets down his pants before being interrupted by a phone call. Stolas greets him as "...my big dicked Blitzy", causing both Blitzo and Octavia to spit out their coffee, and the scene cuts between Blitzo and Octavia saying what the fuck. Stolas chides both of them about their language, before telling Blitzo he has a special request. Blitzo tells him he just had a skin treatment, and isn't willing to sleep with Stolas at the moment, before Stolas tells him it's about his daughter. Blitzo asks him to tell her to wash first, causing Stolas to panic slightly before he tells him he is taking her to Loo Loo Land and he wants I.M.P. to accompany them.

Blitzo tells Stolas they are assassins, not bodyguards, and not to invite them anywhere if no one's going to die. Stolas tells Blitzo he'll pay them in money, which Blitzo agrees to, accidentally breaking his phone in excitement. Using a megaphone, Blitzo tells Millie and Moxxie to get in his office as they are going to Loo Loo Land. Moxxie opens Blitzo's office door, questioningly saying Loo Loo Land, while Millie breaks through the window in the door, excitedly saying Loo Loo Land, and Blitzo using the megaphone says Loo Loo Land, causing Loona to yell for them to shut up from off screen.

It then cuts to the theme park as a I.M.P. branded minivan arrives as Moxxie, wearing a pair of dark glasses, opens the back door for Stolas. Stolas quickly exits the van, while Octavia reluctantly gets out.

Cultural References

 * During the overhead view of the theme park when the mascot says "Welcome to Loo-Loo Land", you can see an imp with an outfit that looks similar to the iconic character, .
 * One of the game stand signs reads "MUPPET", which seems to be a direct nod to.
 * The scene where Millie and Moxxie played the carnival game is a reference to a scene from  when Margot, Edith, and Agnes couldn't knock down the spaceship at a theme park carnival game, and the employee working at the game was quite snarky. Both carnival games were very similar, and the employee in Helluva's voice was similar to the worker in Despicable Me. He even wears the same hat.
