Karen is left to take care of the trophy for the Bon Spiel, the Clavet Cup; this turns out to be a more difficult task than she thought it would be.
Mayor Fitzy's plan to promote Dog River seems to be working, as an American tourist shows up by accident. Hank is made the goodwill ambassador to Bill, the tourist, but feels that he's nothing more than a typical ignorant American. Meanwhile, Wes' liquor store becomes the new hip place to be as the brand new ATM machine he has put in, seems to be attracting crowds.
Civic-minded Lacey uncovers the dark secret behind Dog River's name. Brent, Hank and Wanda resurrect their old high school rock band Thunderface. The local bar owner is thrilled but not for the reasons the band thinks. Meanwhile Davis takes an unusual interest in Oscar's claim that a famous country and western singer stole his song.
A big air show is on nearby and the people of Dog River are very excited but Lacey's breach of airshow protocol has many in town upset.

And after a rash of vandalism, Karen and Davis take to the streets on bikes to do some face-to-face community policing. But Karen is oddly reluctant.
