The family takes a trip to look at a potential college for Hayley, leaving Steve to watch over the house. When his friends arrive and realize he has the run of the house, they persuade Steve to break the rules. Going into Stan's study (which he explicitly forbade Steve from entering), they discover a briefcase containing flight controls and believe it is a video game. They play with it for a while before realizing that the console is actually controlling an unmanned military drone. 
 
Meanwhile, Roger dresses up as a young girl named Katelyn on the flight. When the drone flies over, the plane is grounded and Roger finds himself unable to drink because of his disguise, so he dresses up as Stan. When the air marshal notices that "Katelyn" is missing, he refuses to let the plane take-off and threatens to kill a passenger every minute. Francine and Hayley plead with Roger to get back in his girl costume but he is so drunk and into his persona that he has forgotten he was Katelyn. When he realizes this, he dresses as the girl again. However, as the plane taxis for take-off, the drone flies over and they are grounded again; Hayley swears at the top of her lungs at this. 
 
In another side story, Steve had accidentally crashed the drone onto a squirrel, who happened to be the President of the squirrel community. The Vice-President takes over, and announces his first act as President is to investigate the contents of a neighboring bird feeder.
