When Stan arrives home to find Steve and Snot playing air guitar, he begins to get suspicious that snot is holding back his son and forbids him from seeing Snot. The two ignore Stan's demands and continue to play together. Stan sets up a fake gang hit with Snot as a witness and sends him off into a witness protection program. Snot calls and tells Steve that he had to move to Wyoming with Stan's orchestrations hoping that his son will move beyond Snot.
While Stan has really set up Snot with an apartment and a cover story for his mom, Steve misses his friend and writes him wanting Stan to mail the letters. When Stan makes a grocery run for Snot, he stays for dinner and a sleepover. In the dark, they begin to bond. When Steve finds his unmailed letters to Snot, Hayley reveals that he was tricked the same as she once was. He rushes to Snot's apartment to find his father playing air guitar with Snot.
