## Synopsis

School is out for summer vacation and Dan is sent to a summer camp by his mom named "Camp Fun". But he finds out that it's not actually a summer camp, but a concentration camp. Can he escape the living hell?

## Plot

Mr. McNeese is teaching his students until the school bell rings. The entire class then runs out of the school while Dan and Logan talk about what they're going to do during summer vacation. Dan tells him that he is going on a cross-country road trip to Valencia, California to visit Six Flags Magic Mountain. When Dan leaves the bus, he is told by his mom that he will be going to summer camp. This shocks Dan, as he is only told after coming home from school. After packing his bags for summer camp, he gets into his mom's 2004 Toyota Highlander and drives out of the home.

When arriving at the camp, Dan reads the sign and realizes that it may not be so bad. Inside, he sits and watches a VHS tape with the other kids at the camp and discovers that it was first opened in 1988 and was actually used as a death camp, but before he can tell everyone about it he is interrupted by a Neo-Nazi camp counselor who doesn't want anybody to hear it, even threatening him with a forced conversion to Judaism and then a burning from him. The activities finally start, but they're life threatening activities, like trying to avoid gun bullets hitting you and mining. Dan plots a way to escape the camp without getting caught by the guards. A week later, Dan takes a shower with another kid but is told that the shower actually sprays gas, forcing him to hold his breath until the shower ends, which results in him passing out shortly afterwards.

The following night, Dan, not wanting to take the camp's dangerous activities anymore, manages to escape the camp and calls his mom to pick him up. However, he is being hunt down by Counselor Jewbuster, who found out about his escape. Before he can manages to get caught, Dan uses a gas pipe from the shower to knock Jewbuster out, killing him. When his mom arrives, he hops into the car and she drives off while asking him "how was your week at the camp, sweetie?" to which he awkwardly responds with "fun" while giving a thumbs up. Back at home, Dan tells Logan about what happened at Camp Fun and report the camp's activities to the authorities. We then cut to a montage of the camp counselors being arrested and the place shut down, with construction plans for a new Carwardine park, Carwardine Woods beginning on the former site. Shortly after the montage, Dan and his parents are seen at Magic Mountain riding the Colossus wooden coaster as the episode ends.
