Devin is working on editing an ad for Beef N' Stuff and declares they are ahead of schedule for the first time ever. However, the power goes out while she tries to save her edit. Five days later, the power is still out and time is running out for VPC to finish their video. VPC tries to find ways to power their PC while Owen searches for a girl he matched with on Tinder.

!!Tropes in this episode include:

* BottleEpisode: Takes place fully at the VPC home.
* GilliganCut: Zona says they shouldn't be worried unless the power is out for five days. Cut to five days later and the power is still out.
* HamsterWheelPower: Micah has the idea to use one to power the computer. Not having a giant hamster wheel, they opt for the stationary bike.
* MedalOfDishonor: As punishment for lying, Micah is forced to wear a hat with the word "SHAME" written all over it and stand in the "shame corner" while the others turn their backs to him. Zona is later subjected to the same treatment as punishment for her [[ToiletHumor room-clearing fart]].
* MysteryMeat: VPC wonders what the "stuff" in Beef N' Stuff could be, with the most likely candidate being people. In TheStinger, Zona watches their commercial and it says "the mystery ain't worth looking into."
* PinocchioNose: Micah gets an accent when he lies.
* PowerOutagePlot: VPC loses power for five days, putting one of their videos at risk.
* StaticElectricity: One of Ryan's ideas for solving their power issues is having the team get as much static electricity as possible. The resulting static shock sends Ryan flying and fried.
* ToiletHumor: Zona clears the house with her gas.
