This episode of South Park comes in just before Thanksgiving. It focuses on Turkey Trot. The episode starts with a discussion about the lack of a sponsor for the event. All the members begin to discuss that South Park’s situation is not well, which is the reason behind the event not getting a sponsor.

One of the members said that there could be one person who would be able to give them money, as the person gives money to everyone else. They finally get the sponsor from Saudi Arabia. As this episode progresses, Stan and his friends discuss the winner’s prize amount at the Turkey Trot.

They plan to win the race so that they can get the money. At the police station, the White House calls to free the prisoner. They threaten to send Pete Hegseth if they do not comply and release the prisoner. Right then, Pete Hegseth appears at the police station.

He then gets a call from the president, who asks him if he was able to get the prisoner. Hegseth informs him that he was not able to get the prisoner yet, as he is getting resistance from the local police force.

The president then tells Hegseth not to “just make a bunch of content” but rather to “actually go and do something”. The Turkey Trot race begins, and it almost seems as if the whole town came to race so that they can win the race. Seeing the huge crowd for the race with his binoculars, Pete Hegseth thinks that it is an uprising.

He begins to plan how to get the man out of the prison; however, his focus is mainly on creating “content”. Right then, Kristi Noem arrives to give them support in the whole operation. This episode then takes a hilarious turn. As the runners approach Pete Hegseth, he fires a tear gas bomb. The runners get completely bewildered by the situation.
