Stressed out by his family and his obligations, Principal Lewis takes Stan Smith shopping for a hot tub at the Little Shop of Hot Tubs. Stan is drawn to a used hot tub in the store back room that Marguerite tries to talk him out of purchasing but Stan decides he wants it anyways. At first, Stan and Francine enjoy the tub and the relaxing sex in it.

Marguerite later reconsiders his position on the tub when he gets a chance to party with Principal Lewis and Stan until they are chased off by Francine. Francine starts to worry about the effect of spending all of the time in the tub is having on Stan and orders him to stay out of it too. That night, the tub calls to Stan and he returns, annoying Francine who gives Stan an ultimatum of the tub or her. When Stan chooses the tub, Francine packs the rest of the family and leaves for her parents. Still annoyed by his feelings about the hot tub, Marguerite investigates and found out that the hot tub came alive after being struck by lightning and killed its original owner and later escaped from a mental hospital.
