Plot

The episode starts off with Mr. Gus watching a show about crocodiles. Uncle Grandpa comes in to spy on what Mr. Gus is watching, but when Mr. Gus finds out he immediately changes the channel to the news which is currently reporting about toothpaste. Uncle Grandpa informs him that his own favorite show Teenage Fart Throb is on. He takes the remote without asking and changes the channel. This angers Mr. Gus and they begin to argue and fight over the TV remote. Pizza Steve comes in during this argument and tries his best to mediate them. He decides the best way to settle who gets the remote is to have a leg wrestling match for it. Mr. Gus and Uncle Grandpa admit to not knowing how to leg wrestle, so Pizza Steve offers to teach them both.

After training both of them for the match, the match begins. It's a very heated fight that goes back and forth with both Uncle Grandpa and Mr. Gus evenly matched. Some points Uncle Grandpa looked like he was winning and other points Mr. Gus looked like he was winning. Several crazy leg wrestling moves and a commercial later, Uncle Grandpa and Mr. Gus accidentally tangle up their legs together. This gives Pizza Steve the opportunity he needed to steal the TV remote and watch his own television show Oven Lovin'. Mr. Gus and Uncle Grandpa realize they have been tricked and conned out of watching TV.
