Stan and Francine celebrate their twentieth wedding anniversary, and Roger takes over the planning of a vow-renewal ceremony. However, Francine, after learning that Stan only married her for her looks, stops her regular beauty regimen for two weeks and becomes incredibly unattractive. Stan reacts by running out on the expensive ceremony. The two of them attempt to make their marriage work, but Stan finds it difficult to see past Francine's appearance, so she throws him out. In desparation, he has his retinas removed, rendering him completely blind. Suprisingly, being blind causes Stan to actually listen to Francine, taste her cooking, and so on, allowing them to fall in love all over again. This comes to a halt when Stan points out that since he is now blind, Francine would have to be the provider for the family. At the second, more modest vow-renewal ceremony, Stan is left waiting at the altar when Francine stands him up. She later admits that wanted to be taken care of, not to have to take care of someone else. Stan and Francine both realize that they married for shallow reasons, but that they do truly love each other, and go through with the renewal ceremony, after Stan regains his eyesight and Francine resumes her beauty regimen. Because of the expense of their two abortive ceremonies, the third renewal takes place in a pizza parlor.

Their search turns to desperation when another Roger persona, a knife-wielding thug, cuts Steve and threatens them with further violence if their gift is inadequate. They end up fleeing to Argentina, only to be followed by the Roger thug. (The wedding planner is also in Argentina, working as a prostitute. And a wedding planner.) Meanwhile, Klaus is upset after Stan brings home a blind fish from the CIA lab, that soon kills itself from swimming back and forth into the sides of the fish bowl. He later has sex with the body.

The girls are taken to a teach about Hawaiian hula and how it can be integrated with hip-hop. The girls learn several moves and are assigned to use them to tell a story. During rehearsal, Erin uses her cheerleading experience to help the girls get their routine down. While most of the girls perform well, Nicole messes up her entire routine. Laura ends up winning a 5-day trip back to Hawaii after the competition is over, which she shares with Jennifer, much to Erin's frustration.

At the photo shoot, the girls are told that two of them will be eliminated at the next panel, shocking them. While Erin and Nicole perform rather well, Laura and Jennifer stumble. At panel, Laura and Nicole are praised for their pictures but Erin and Jennifer are castigated for their poor film. In the end, Laura, Jennifer and Erin land in the bottom three, Laura for not looking like a model in person and the other two for their dwindling performances.

Ultimately, an overjoyed Laura joins Nicole as a finalist, while Jennifer and Erin are sent home, both of them being upset to have come so close to the win, yet so far.
