When Roger gets a diploma for archeology in his persona of Twill Ongenbone from Georgetown University, Francine is the only family member to show up for the graduation. Back home, the rest of the family admits that since he faked the credits to graduate, there was no point in going, as he had purchased or faked most of his awards including an Oscar from Cuba Gooding, Jr.. Roger vows to impress them by running a marathon and Francine pledges to help him train. After weeks of training, Francine gives Roger an award of her own for his hard work. Roger starts off on the marathon but collapses just feet from the starting line. As Francine starts to drive him home, Roger admits that he faked the training and then has her stop the car where he finishes the marathon in first place. Francine becomes upset at having been duped by Roger and takes back her personal award and gives it to Steve which upsets Roger and he vows to do something for real to make her proud.

Roger decides to put his archeology degree to use and goes on a dig with Francine. When the dig site collapses into a sink hole, they are dropped into a cave where they find what appears to be a primitive culture living undiscovered. Roger is able to communicate with them and Francine is impressed, but the entire thing turns out to be a ruse for Francine's benefit and the natives are actors hired by Roger. Francine refuses to leave and the actors start getting tired. Roger tries to set up a chase by the "natives" that goes badly and Francine accidentally stabs and kills Cuba Gooding, Jr., one of the actors, with a stalagmite. As Roger tells the entire truth about having to hire and train the actors in a process that took weeks to prepare, he mopes about having failed to impress Francine again. Francine surprises him by giving him back his award for the very hard work he put into trying to impress her.
