They choose a song titled "My Butt Has a Fever," which they are sure will become the hit of the night. Initially, Bob is hesitant when the Belcher kids share their idea for the talent show with him. He advises them not to perform the song as he does not want to embarrass them, but he also fears that they might take it as a form of validation. He offers his support, though, as he knows it is something they want to do. However, when Mr. Frond, the eccentric and strict music teacher, overhears their idea for the talent show, he becomes extremely disapproving. He believes that it is too provocative and mature for a talent show. Mr. Frond's strict reaction makes the kids feel self-conscious about their performance. The main plot then revolves around Gene, Tina, and Louise Belcher wanting to perform their song despite Mr. Frond's disapproval. Meanwhile, Bob tries his best to make the kids confident by coming to school that day dressed as a rock star himself. However, this only confuses the students and faculty.

He comes up with a plan to make them feel special and loved before the show by giving them each a customized lunch box with their favorite items inside. Later, at the talent show, Gene, Tina, and Louise perform their song, "My Butt Has a Fever." Initially, the audience at first appears to be confused and awkward, mainly due to Mr. Frond's initial reaction. However, their performance actually starts gaining momentum. Louise starts dancing, Gene performs a dance spin, and Tina confidently sings in the front. As they finish their performance, they receive an overwhelming applause, which surprises both them and Mr. Frond. In the end, after a successful performance, Gene, Tina, and Louise start to feel more confident about sharing their unique ideas. They show Bob that they could handle things on their own, and also they learn to stand up for themselves when others judge or disagree with them.
