As Ava and Angie are having lesbian sex, Ava yells out Alisan Porter's name, so Angie realizes that she is imagining her as Porter to maintain her libido. Ava and Angie decide to take a second honeymoon to enliven their marriage, but ultimately attend Feathersox 2019.
Deanna, now married to Brandi Sousa, is still living with her parents, Ava and Angie Willis, and siblings Brian, Stuart, Ron, Emilie, Luanne, and Hillary (with the exception of Tom, who died in 2011), and their daughter Tessanne. Deanna initially claims she refused to move out after attendign college to care for the aging parents but eventually admits to losing her teaching job in Indianapolis.

At The Druken Hoosier, Angie, Stephanie, Jennifer, and Lilly decide to interview potential friends to fill the vacancy, and are approached by a fellow bar patron named Christina Sellars, whom they ultimately decide to let Christiana join as their new fourth member after Lilly recognized Christiana. Later, when Angie introduces Christiana to Ava, she reveals that the two used to date (and also have a child together).
Later, Karly Jameson, a famous Quillsvillian announces she is starting her concert tour in Quillsville. Tickets to the show are sold out as they are invite only. Meanwhile, the Quillsville Mafia (consiting of Josh Kaufman, Bart the Bully and wife Danielle, Cynthia Wilson (aka Jill Da Rippa), and two guys named Seth and Jon) plot to disrupt Feathersox after Cynthia vows to get revenge after she was passed over by Fanchon Stinger and Diane Willis ten years earlier, blames Fox 11's news director. Cynthia attacks Alisan (via strangling), Avril (via molestation) and eventually Karly (by nearly strangling Karly).
However after being arrested by Ava (after being bit by Tabby and scratched by Shushu), Cynthia reveals that she is not to be evil after all. She then reveals that she got home from work one day and caught her husband cheating on her. She was depressed after the divorce, which ultimately accorfing to Bob Donaldson and Diane Willis, cost Wilson her job and her house. She moved into Bart the Bully's home until she got back on her feet and has lived there for eleven years. Cynthia apologizes to Mayor Kelso and Tina Craven for unintentionally terrorizing Quillsville and wishes to start over. Mayor Kelso is unconvinced, but when Tina pays a great amount of money to CBS to move its Indianapolis affiliation from channel 8 to channel 40 (it is revealed that Fox 11 and channel 40 as well as channels 8 and 10 are the two duopolies).
During an argument, Ava reveals that Christiana (while at Feathersox) had bought Angie a gift (revealed to to be the complete box set of The Cleveland Show), and she goes on to apologize to Christiana for being so insensitive.
Heather tries to join Angie's group, but Angie says it is not a good idea because Melissa dislikes her. Heather attempts to rectify the situation outside Melissa's house. However, Heather ends up making things worse by mistaking Melissa's wife, Stephanie, and one of Melissa's sisters, who is hiding out from her abusive girlfriend, for one of her patients. Heather tricks Melissa into going to dinner with her after Feathersox 2019 by making her think Gene Cox, the Indianapolis television anchor/reporter that Tabby (as Rags) bit and Shushu clawed in "Revenge of the Male Anchors 2", is the one inviting her and perfroming a leg transplant.
At dinner, Heather attempts to make small talk, but Melissa does not soften up. Finally, Heather asks Melissa why she does not like her. Melissa responds with an angry tirade detailing everything about Heather she finds reprehensible, at the end of which she calls Heather "a big, sad, cocksucking prostituting bore". Heather then returns home, having been crying on the way back. Tabby and Shushu cheers her up by saying that she only needs to like herself, and then professes their own admiration for Heather by letting her spend the night in their room.
Angie discovers that Avril Lavigne has a private suite at a luxurious hotel nearby, "which she barely uses". She and Ava decide not to go to the hotel, but attends the concert instead. As Ava and Angie are about to leave, Lavigne discovers that the CD has been replaced with a tuna sandwich, leading to a chase on the stage that ends on the roof of Babyface High School. While being chased, Ava slips but hangs on the cliff. Angie grabs her and, while being held at gunpoint by Lavinge, she tells Lavigne that the film "is in Pia Toscano's pants" and points to the other side of the roof. Lavigne follows Angie's direction and falls off the edge of the roof as Angie pulls Ava to safety. Upon climbing back to the top of the roof, the two have lesbian sex there, improving their marriage.
