Plot
The annual park barbecue has come, and Benson is very excited. Pops made pies and Skips made chili, and Benson ordered premium hot dogs from the Internet. He tells Rigby not to grill them yet, but Rigby tells Mordecai that that they can. After using too much lighter fluid, though, Rigby burns the hot dogs, setting the grill on fire in the process. They push it into the river, putting out the fire, but causing all of the hot dogs to float away. Mordecai dramatically crosses his arms because he sick of Rigby getting him into trouble, much to Rigby's dismay, and says "you pissed me off." Rigby tells Mordecai he can "fix it" (a line repeated by Rigby many times throughout this episode.) They go to get substitute hot dogs in the meat locker to fix the problem, with Rigby saying "Benson will never know."

When they try to find the hot dogs, Rigby tries to help Mordecai look for them, even though he was supposed to be holding the door open. He props the door open with some bags of ice, which proceed to fall out of place, causing the door to slam shut. Rigby again tells Mordecai he can "fix it," but simply ends up breaking the safety latch off of the door by forcing it, notifying that the two are officially locked in the cellar. They pound on the door and yell for help, but Benson, Pops, and Skips are too busy with the party to hear them. Mordecai gets even more mad at Rigby, and tries to find a way to get out of the meat locker "before [they] both freeze to death." Rigby tells Mordecai he "found the thermostat," and "can totally fix it." He hits a duct with a frozen drumstick, causing the temperature to drop severely. At this point Mordecai finally snaps and yells at Rigby that he can't fix anything. He then crosses his arms again, and Rigby protests, yelling "Mordecai, don't die mad at me!"

" Too... late..." says Mordecai goes into a hypothermic coma, which, if you look up how hypothermia works, youll know that that is completely innaccutrate. ( Anyone catch the vibe that Mordecai KNOWS he will fall into a hypothermic coma and rigby won't, because he says "And now, I'm gonna d-d-die because of you." and how he says that he hates going down to the meat locker?) falling to the floor. Rigby goes to Mordecai and starts to touch his face to see if he was okay, but Mordecai was out cold. Rigby starts to feel guilty, and not going to abandon his best friend he grab a hold of Mordecai's legs put them on his shoulder and Rigby said he is going to take care of us.Then while Rigby looking for the hot dogs he look from boxes but didnt find them and he pick up Mordecai's ankles and walk off. Then he is walking and holding him by his neck then Mordecai's body is push off some of boxes by Rigby. After awhile of carrying Mordecai chest, he carefully move Mordecai's head like a puppet and preneted he was telling he was doing alright but then he grows weak and drops Mordecai's body and falls, hitting his head on a box which turn out to hold the hot dogs he was looking for. Then Rigby finds the hot dogs and discovers that they can talk. While Rigby was talking to the hot dogs, Mordecai dreams of Margaret, but it turns into a nightmare when Rigby appears as a giant. When Mordecai wakes up, Rigby explains the hot dogs and said while he was dead (unconscious) he found the hot dogs and they going to help them and they know a way out. The talking hot dogs tell Rigby if he can take them to a barbecue, (because it is their destiny to be eaten) that they can guide the two out of the meat locker. They make the deal, and a cooler appears, which teleports them back to the park.

The others come out, just in time for Benson, Skips, and Pops to arrive. Then the hot dogs quickly attack them and kidnap Benson, Pops, Skips, and Mordecai to be marinated in a giant plastic bag. The hot dog leader explains to Rigby that now the hot dogs did not want to be eaten; they wanted to eat them for "all of our fallen brother and sister hot dogs, massacred at the hand of your barbecue!" Rigby tries to escape the hot dogs, but fails to climb up a tree and is cornered. He eventually realizes that if he squirts mustard at them, they will eat each other. He does this to all of the hot dogs, and eventually they are taken care of. After all of this is said and done, Benson wants to know what happened, accusing Rigby. Rigby is able to place the blame on Benson, though, saying it was him who bought the "super premium psycho hot dogs" in the first place. Benson, embarrassed, quickly pulls out his wallet and tells Rigby to buy some more hot dogs at the store with Mordecai, and to make sure they're regular.
