Writer: D.R. Cobb
Based on the graphic novel Punk Rock and Trailer Parks by John "Derk" Backderf

Plot: Otto (Ross Lynch) is doing inventory in the storage room at The Bank when he hears someone start to yell at Ruby (Jenn Lyon), his boss. The man, Lenny (Justin Long), says he's supposed to get free booze as part of his deal. Ruby tells him he's hit his quota since his band doesn't pull in enough of a crowd to cover how much he's drinking. Lenny orders her to give him another shot. Lenny's band mates: Odgen (Lonny Ross), Larry (David Krumholtz) and Gus (Charlie Saxton) try to get him away from the bar, but he instead throws a glass at Ruby. Otto then comes over and knocks Lenny out with one punch. Ruby comments that the bill for that night has to change now, but thanks Otto. He tells her that no one gets to hassle her while he's around. Otto picks up Lenny and asks his band mates where he should put their lead singer. They tell him their van is outside parked in front of the peep show down the street. The band members lament that they'll never get another gig at The Bank and Otto carries off their lead singer.

As Ogden, Larry and Gus show Otto where they can put Lenny they announce that they are dumping his ass from the band. Larry gives Ogden a nudge and he addresses Otto, asking him if he'd like to be their new lead singer. Otto is surprised that they would ask him, but Ogden says he's a natural choice since he's a recognizable figure in town and not already in a band, which is a rare combo. Otto asks if he can play the trombone too.

Otto and Wes (Logan Miller) are at a small house out by the old Firestone factory for Otto's first rehearsal with his new band. Wes begins to complain that they've been there for six hours and the band has only rehearsed two songs. Otto leans his head back and agrees with Wes' complaint. Ogden has spent most of the evening screwing with his junk equipment. Larry has spent the evening snorting coke. While Gus has been in a catatonic state for a couple hours staring slack-jawed at the televangelist on television. Gus then suddenly throws up on himself. Otto tells Wes that apparently Gus always throws up when he gets high, Otto then adds that he's pretty sure Gus is a junkie. Wes asks Otto what he's gotten himself involved in. Otto says that's just rock-n-roll. It ain't pretty. Ogden suddenly throws a beer can at Gus, yelling at him to turn off the church show. Otto announces that he and Wes are going to call it a night and take off. Larry and Ogden take offense to this since their first gig is in two weeks. Otto tells them he's beat. Ogden says that this isn't some high school garage band. They're professionals.

Otto tells Wes they should at least leave the room for a bit. Wes says he can't decide if his new band mates are completely delusional or just douchebags. Otto wonders aloud if there's any food as they wal to the kitchen. Otto opens the fridge and finds two beers and a package of cheese food. Wes says he has dibs on the cheese, but Otto says they can split it. Wes then points out a half-naked woman (Alia Shawkat) asleep on the kitchen floor. Otto says that's Ogden's girlfriend. Wes cracks open one of the beets in the fridge. Suddenly Ogden's girlfriend leaps to life and yells at them to get out. Otto tries to explain that he's in the band. Ogden tries to reason with his girlfriend at first, but then sees that Wes and Otto have one of his beers. Wes and Otto look at each other and then bolt from the house.
