==Sypnosis==
Budnick thinks that Ug has the easiest job in the world. He just lays around all day and never has to do anything. It happens to be "Upside Down Weekend", where everything that can be done backwards, will be done backwards. This includes making a camper a counselor for the weekend. Budnick sees his chance to make camp fun, and the campers all elect him after he promises he'll let everyone run amok. Ug becomes a camper and becomes the worst prankster. 
Meanwhile, Dina finds a frog in her shoe. She wants to crush it, but Z.Z. saves it and trains it for an upcoming frog competition. 
Budnick finds out being a counselor is much harder than anticipated after Ug gives him a rule book that contains a list of rules that he must follow and a duty roster. He demands to know why Ug would give him such boring rules in a book. He points out to Budnick that he needs to enforce the rules for Camp Anawanna or else he will be in trouble with Dr. Kahn and thus losing the bet to Ug. He tells Budnick he could admit that he can't cut it as a counselor. He tells Ug he will do fine and orders him to do push-ups.
At Upside Down Kickball, Ug is having the time of his life being a camper and a prankster to his fellow campers for the weekend. Budnick becomes a rule enforcer and angers the campers. They get revenge on him by tying him to a table with bandages and leave him there. Ug tries to help the campers smuggle a pizza into camp by ordering at a nearby pizza place. Budnick catches them in the act and takes the pizza for his own. He then punishes the campers by pouring water in the swimming pool. Ronnie demands to know why he's making them do this. Budnick explains that they violated the rules which forbids outside food. Therefore, he names the punishment for the campers and feels like swimming today. Dina asks Budnick why he doesn't consider swimming in the lake. He mentions that fish fart in it and naps. The campers are annoyed further by rule enforcing Budnick and tries to come up with a plan to get back at him. Ug rallies them to his side by inciting a series of pranks against him.
At dinner, Budnick puts Donkeylips in the kitchen for cooking duty. He arrives with Budnick's pancakes. He immediately suspects that his pancakes feel like cement. Donkeylips tells Budnick that he should check the water's filtration system to see if the water had gotten hard. Annoyed, he slams the rule book shut and immediately heads inside the kitchen, ever suspicious. Budnick's suspicion is confirmed when he notices the pancake mix is missing and replaced with cement mix. Coming back inside the lobby, he demands to know who stole the pancake mix because he wants it returned into the kitchen or else he will make the campers clean the shower floors. Immediately, Ug starts snickering in delight when Dr. Kahn is on the speakers, ordering Budnick in his office because of his cracked dentures is stuck on his pancakes and explain himself. Budnick orders the campers to return the pancake mix at once and leaves for Dr. Kahn's office.
Later on Budnick has a hard time and Z.Z. talks to him. She encourages him to use his own judgment and not be so tough on the campers. Budnick tells her that he has to enforce the rules, when Donkeylips arrives and informs them that Sponge just went out of control and attacked Ronnie. He decides he has to punish Sponge and heads to the boys' bunk.
Coming inside the bunk, he notices ketchup stain vandalism with different words as "I hate Budnick" and "Me VS Dr. Kahn". Ronnie appears to have been attacked and he tries to explain to Budnick that he tried to stop Sponge before Dr. Kahn got involved. He asks Ronnie where Sponge went. He mentions Sponge has gone to the lobby to write "Dr. Kahn eats Oats!" Budnick leaves for the lobby to stop him from his vandalism spree and punish him. Once he arrives in the lobby, he gets covered in pancake mix with eggs and milk. Budnick realizes that he was set up.
The campers are enjoying their victory until Dina(who has just found out the prize was the dinner) and Z.Z. begin fighting over the frog. Ug tries to help solve the issue, but is unable to. Budnick arrives and confiscates the frog, announcing the campers' punishment.
The next day, Budnick gripes with them over not giving them a chance. Donkeylips and the other campers accuse him for going against his original promise to let them run amok and have fun. Budnick claims that if he did that, the campers would just get hurt. Ug points out that he allowed the campers to have fun at camp as long as they followed the rules and what Budnick did borderline to selfish. Dina and Z.Z. are still fighting over the frog and Ronnie convinces him to deal with the issue. Budnick comes up with a great solution to give the frog to Z.Z. When Dina complains that the frog was found in her shoe, he points out that she didn't care for it's well being like Z.Z. did. Therefore, she doesn't deserve the frog. Budnick decides to punish the campers by having them watch the frog race competition. As the campers are leaving, Sponge asks him if he consulted the rule book in regards to it. He admitted he took Z.Z.'s advice in making his own decision because the book would've given the frog to Dina, which he felt was unfair after seeing her behavior. Budnick decides he's had enough of being a counselor.
He and Ug draws a deal on the bet as Z.Z.'s frog wins the competition. Ug quickly confiscates the money he made to pay for the pizza that he left on his Anawanna account. Budnick agrees and informs him to deal with Flankman who's thumb is stuck to his forehead.
