Uncle Grandpa is then driving the RV while making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, while Uncle Grandpa eats the sandwich he breaks through the guard rail and crashes the RV. Uncle Grandpa says the crash was crazy and is glad the windshield was there to soften the landing, Pizza Steve and Mr. Gus are ok from the crash, and Mr. Gus said he found Riley and he wants this over with so he could go for a haircut in 20 minutes, Uncle Grandpa said to not worry because when we're done we're all getting haircuts. The trio are behind a bush watching Riley and his friends party and they try to come up with a plan to get Riley back to his room before Riley's father finds out he snuck out. Uncle Grandpa drops into the party as a police officer and tries to convince Riley to go back to his room, Riley could see through Uncle Grandpa's disguise, Uncle Grandpa has a banana for a gun, and a starfish for a badge, then Uncle Grandpa calls to abort the mission and a helicopter full of Uncle Grandpas come and rescue him. Pizza Steve suggets to go in a crash the party but when he goes in and tries to crash it, he turns that party into a pizza party, and then they continue to party. Uncle Grandpa then suggests to have Mr. Gus go in and scare all the teens, but they cheered for Mr. Gus and then he joined the party. Uncle Grandpa then tells Riley that there's a super extra super cool party, Riley asks where is it and Uncle Grandpa says that it's over there, then Uncle Grandpa opens the door and rainbows start to come out, along with a unicorn and $100 bills telling them to come and join the party, Uncle Grandpa lets everyone but Riley into the party, and Riley gives Uncle Grandpa a little speech of how he'll never sneak out again and he's sorry for it, then Uncle Grandpa lets Riley into the party.

Once Riley enters the party the whole place turns into a nightmare in a matter of seconds and all of Riley's friends turn into monsters and they all say that Riley shouldn't have snuck out and that he's going to party with them forever. Riley meets up with a monster Pizza Steve with Mr. Gus perperonis and Riley is stuck in Monster Pizza Steve's cheese. Riley is trapped dangling from the cheese, and he finally realizes that he shouldn't have tricked Uncle Grandpa into sneaking him out of his room, Uncle Grandpa accepts Riley's apology and tells Riley to sneak out of the party, and the door out appears. Riley then frees himself and runs towards the exit, running away from all of his monster friends, and once Riley entered the door out he's back in his room. The Laundry Lizard welcomes Riley back into his room and tells Riley that he folded all of his laundry, Riley freaks out and realizes he never folded it, he pushes Laundry Lizard and starts to refold the laundry. Uncle Grandpa pops out and tells Riley "did you learn your lesson and you're not going to sneak out of your room any more?", Riley doesn't even want to think about sneaking out ever again and he said he's never going to leave his room again.
