## Plot

The McFinger Family, composed of Norman, his sister, father, and mother, are on spring break holiday in Easter Island. They visit the Moai statues, are patrons at fruit and coffee stands, and an adult shop. They return to their vegetable garden and, after Dad McFinger creates a dilemma after combining a carrot with a plum, Dick McFinger (Norman's mother) calls a plumber named Yut.

The plumber reminisces about his dog Betsy, who was murdered by his neighbour Frederick, when Dad starts talking about his aunt's parrot with the group. Yut receives a text from his cousin Jug, who is a bartender living in the fictional city of Place, Yemen and was stuck inside his car.

Yut then thinks about Jug's nephew Amazon who tried to become a member of the People Of Pervert Operations (POPO), by licking the udders of a cow. The cow lived on a farm in the Scottish countryside belonging to a man named Paul, a former Nazi, and Illuminati member. Paul reminisces of his past and his addiction to the drug Haemorrhoids, which he bought from Grigori Rasputin, and his doctor John, who tried to help him get over his addiction. John reminisces of his childhood and relationship with a Greek woman he met who worked at a mirror store. At John's wedding, his aunt hooks up with Rasputin, who later shoots him with a shotgun.

Not being able to trust John because of stereotypes he associated with people of his name, Paul visited Doctor Du at the Grand Palace of Sick People. Du conducts neurological surgery on Paul to cure his Haemorrhoid addiction, shortly before Paul ceases reminiscing and helps Amazon off his fence, who soon finds the cow and sucks its udders. The cow's friend Carol defends him and Amazon is forced to retreat. This ends Yut's reminiscing.

Yut travels to Place by carousel ride and finds his cousin in his car. Jug promptly breaks the glass of the window and escapes, proving Yut's journey to be in vain. The plumber later returns to the McFinger's vegetable garden and resumes his work.
