- Fred, Lamont, Donna and Bubba attend a taping of "The Gong Show" and are inspired to audition as contestants, bringing their musical act onto the show.
- Lamont brings Fred four tickets to a taping of The Gong Show. Besides Lamont, Fred invites Donna and Bubba. After a charade when making room for all of them to sit together in the audience, Fred then makes a scene expressing his opinions of the contestants (making Bubba laugh, but angering Lamont and Donna). Afterwards, Fred decides to enlist Lamont and his brother-in-law, Rodney, to do an act on the show. However, Rodney has his own aspirations to be on the show; as an opera singer by the name of Raymond C. Gordon (as Rodney has a gambling debt to pay off). When he finds out both he and Fred's act will be on the same show, he feigns a back injury to get out of being in Fred's act. On the day of the show, Fred enlists the soft-shod Bubba to take Rodney's place. Throwing the gong mallets out of the judge's reach proves to help as he is rated the highest in the show up to this point, with only Raymond C. Gordon (Rodney) left. Fred finds him so bad, that he picks up a mallet and gongs him out himself. While Fred and company do win, it wound up sort of a Pyrrhic victory as Rodney got sick for real from his singing and the prize money was used for his doctors bills.—jlentzphx@gmail.com
