On the day of an important football game, Earl, Robbie, and Roy reluctantly take the Baby on his Traditional Wilderness Rite of Passage, bringing along a portable TV set so they can watch the game. They inform Baby that he has to go through his Rite of Passage by sitting on a rock for 20 minutes, until he learns that life does not revolve around him, and that he should care about others. While Baby sits on a rock all by himself, Earl, Robbie, and Roy leave to watch the game, but get stuck in a tar pit.
