Synopsis[]

Plot[]
The episode starts with Rusty playing a guitar, Early singing, and Granny dancing. Granny throws herself from her walker and cracks her head right open on a tree stump. Rusty repeats a speech his father (Early) said to him once.
Suddenly, a strong wind forces Early to run inside the house, locking Rusty and Granny outside. Granny regains consciousness only to be crushed by a tree. Persuaded he was going to die, Rusty walks into the storm and finds a capsule operating a wood chipper, but he gets sucked in, and nearly dies. stopping the wood chipper, the man in the capsule stops the chipper, and four hippies emerge from the woods. Spitting out Rusty's body, the chipper kills a hippie, depleting the morale of another hippie, and goes for the two survivors. Early saves them by shooting at the capsule with his shotgun.
The two machines retreat, and the two hippies start hugging Granny, but she turns her knife on them. The hippies explain that a nearby tree has an important fairy nymph inside, and encourage Rusty to play drums. when Early catches Rusty, he throws his drum away, he says "hell, I'd rather shoot my Damn self in the Brain." Early pulls the shotgun to the face and presses the trigger, blowing away part a fraction of his brain, Rusty yells "nooo! daddy!!!"
Early regains consciousness and tells Rusty that his brain is okay, and the while shooting was a pathetic cry for help. The hippies forgive him and say they are all beasts inside and "hunt" each other. The two hippies start having sex, and the Sheriff comes to investigate, saying "there's no nudity here until veterans day!" Early suddenly brings up the holiday of the Fourth of July, and Granny says every color was represented except for Cyan. Early cuts in pulling a bowie to Granny's throat saying "Cyan was represented!!!"
Granny kicks away the knife, repeating herself about Cyan, buy Early loads his shotgun, putting Granny in point-blank range. Granny says: "okay, Cyan may have been represented." and "I'm glad you noticed, Granny!"
"I'm just saying I didn't see it but-" Early pulls the trigger and kills Granny. The hippies use the bullet shell as a hacky sack, and Rusty plays with it. Suddenly, Dan Halen appears in a military helicopter, wearing a helmet, holding a microphone, and has a nuclear bomb, Dan enforces them to surrender since they only had 60 seconds to vacate since he would harm the environment and everyone in it including himself. The hippies grab onto a tree where they think the fairy nymph is. Not giving them any more chances to surrender, Halen drops the bomb, and it explodes. Burning down the tree, the explosion decapitates the female hippy and burns the male to death. Granny comes back and assesses the current situation.
The ending shows, Rusty wearing a necklace with Dakota's hand attached to it, severed in the explosion, with a ruby ring on it. Early then snatches the ring from him during a Smokey Moon Jump amusement park made by Dan Halen, and a wood chipper destroys the remains of the Cuyler House along a bouncy house showing bodies of dead children, thus concluding the episode.
