"" is the twenty-second and final episode in Season 12, being the two-hundred-and-thirty-eighth episode overall.
==Plot==
Tina is on a mission that could get her into a lot of trouble. Then, her family reads her erotic friend fiction, finds out what Tina is up to and tries to stop her.
==Full story==
Louise and Gene are running once school gets out, so they can read Tina’s erotic friend fiction journals, figure out the right thing to say to cheer her up after the horse shirt drama so she can take them to get the free boba drink before Tina can get home. Bob and Teddy are still obsessed with finding whoever wrote the graffiti on the bathroom wall insulting Bob and his restaurant, to no avail. Gene and Louise find Linda having destroyed Tina’s room in trying to find the journals (Tina having started hiding her writings after Linda watched a documentary on teens and drinking, began looking through the diary, as well as circling and making notes in the margins). Bob comes up and finds them making a mess, and discovers the friend fiction journals in Tina’s chair. As they do not know which one she was writing in last, the family start skimming. Bob and Linda wonder where Tina is. 
 
The fan fictions are no help, as in each one (Grease, Fast and the Furious, Jurassic Park, Saving Private Ryan), they all involve finding ways where she ends up kissing Jimmy Jr. (or in the case of Ryan, looking at boy’s butts). Louise finds the most recent in the chair and begins reading. 
 
In the dystopian future Tina-Bot is at the Wagstell Manufacturing building, and infiltrates it using a delivery person disguise. Finding the security room, she discovers Buttard and Zaff being prepared for memory wiping, and heads to the Wiper Room.
 
At Wagstaff after school, Tina hides so the student news staff leave before she can smash the touchscreen with a hammer. Bob starts to get concerned about where Tina is as Louise reads more.
 
Tina-Bot is able to get into the wiper room after several guards leave and heads to the memory wiper machine. She pulls out a hammer.
 
Louise stops reading, as she figures out Tina plans to destroy the Wow or Weird touchscreen in real life (also finding a note Tina wrote to herself saying she needed to figure out a plan to do so), leaving Bob and Linda concerned. The Belchers run to the school to stop her. At school, as the students and Mr. Grant leave, Tina prepares to smash the machine. However, she has no experience using Louise’s lockpicking kit, and only manages to accidentally unlock the door after sticking all the lockpicks in. She is seen by Yuli the security guard, but manages to escape due to how out-of-shape he is and hides in the boy’s locker room. Tina starts to wonder why she is there, but her conscience, represented by Tina-Bot, tells her to destroy it so the judging can stop and everyone can whatever horse-or-not-horse-related shirts they want. She is nearly caught by Yuli, who leaves to send designs for road trip t-shirts to his friend. 
 
The Belchers arrive at the school to find the normally-open gym window closed, and try to find another way in to stop Tina. Tina manes to reach the broadcast room while Yuli is distracted doing a new shirt design in the school computer lab, and is nervously trying to get ready to smash the screen when she overhears her family trying to plan a way in. She opens the window to get their attention, and reveals that she hasn’t smashed the screen yet to her parent’s relief. Bob offers to not punish her right away if she leaves now instead of smashing it.
 
Tina refuses and explains that she feels the need to do it because of how her horse shirt was mocked on the student news, filling her with doubt; she wants a world where no one says mean things and make anyone sounds like failures, where everyone can do their own things, and also Tammy and Jocelyn are banished to hard labor in Australia. Linda, while proud of Tina wanting to rebel against an unfair world, points out she will be expelled for property damage, and she and Bob try to talk her out of it (while Louise says Tina should do it). As Tina is about to smash the screen, however, Tammy enters the newsroom and sees her, having been let in by Yuli to get her chapstick when she realizes Tina is holding a hammer in the newsroom after school and had removed the posterboard covering the window to talk to her family. 
 
Tammy realizes that Tina was going to smash the Wow or Weird screen, remembering that Mr. Grant had mentioned Tina complaining about the segment. She’s about to call for security when Tina tries to point out how awful the Wow or Weird segment is in being judging and mean to people. At first, Tammy is only concerned about how bad Tina made her feel for herself, Tina is ready to smash the screen. Bob manages to stop her by pointing out that people always find a way to judge people, bringing up the bathroom graffiti in his restaurant, before Linda finishes by saying Tina needs to find a way to live in a world that’s going to judge you, and that everyone feels fragile and worried about look weird with who they are; and while it would be easier to have a machine that wiped people’s minds to never do stuff to be judged again, it would also wipe out moments of bravery and self-expression. Bob adds on that the things that make one vulnerable would not mean as much if everyone loved everything. Tammy doesn’t follow but Tina decides not to destroy the screen. 
 
Yuli returns from shirt design to look for Tina, and only finds Tammy in the newsroom while Tina hides behind a desk. After a second of hesitation, Tammy says it is only her in there and Yuli leaves after getting a message that his friend Greg loved the shirt design. Tina asks Tammy why she didn’t tell, and Tammy admits that she only started the segment because she got braces and wanted to say they were cool before people started judging her (although she denies that she can be judged). Tina thanks her and climbs out the window to her family. Sometime later, the Wagstaff student news is doing a new segment on celebrity orthodontics, which makes Tina slightly smile.
 
At Bob’s Burgers, Teddy is still obsessed with finding the graffiti writer, but after two customers compliment Bob’s cooking, Bob seems happy. Linda gets Tina pleather pants like in Grease for her birthday. Tina, Gene and Louise get the extra-large boba drink with Tina’s punch card. At home, Tina writes in her erotic fan fiction journal.
 
Tina-Bot instead uses the hammer to pry open a panel on the wiper machine and fiddles with the wiring. She escapes as Buttard and Zaff are brought in. After Buttard has his memory wiped, he is placed to work on the assembly line, but starts dancing. Soon, all the robots in the factory are dancing, with Tina-Bot joining in.
