Synopsis[]
Sexual harassment prevention training is happening at the Mascot Mall HR department. Those in attendance are Jerry, Peter, Augustus, Bob, Frite, Tater, Barney, and Anthony. It is led by Carlisle, the HR representative. Carlisle asks what people hope to gain from the class, prompting Jerry and Peter to argue about Frite and Tater, who they each believe turned the other into a lesbian.
After giving their own interpretations of harassment, Frite interrupts the training to tell Carlisle that what Peter and Jerry are doing should constitute as harassment. In response, Carlisle tells them that any kind of sexual contact is harassment and “against God.”
During the training, Carlisle leads an exercise where the employees must name sentences that could be considered harassment. Jerry and Peter get competitive, turning out sexually-charged phrases quickly. Again, Tater and Frite call out the hypocrisy, but are not supported by HR.
Barney becomes jealous seeing Tater and Frite together.
Carlisle suggests they do some appropriate workplace interaction roleplay, and picks Jerry and Peter to demonstrate. During their demonstration, a fight breaks out, but ends with the two of them slowly side hugging. In his talking head, Peter thinks that the hug brought he and Jerry closer together. Physically. Not emotionally.
Barney and Anthony are picked for the next roleplay demonstration, where Barney implies that he’s not over Tater. The roleplay turns into Barney trying to win back his ex, with Anthony playing “Gator.” Tater and Frite object to the roleplay, but are shot down and called homophobic.
After a five minute break, another roleplay demonstration takes place, this time between Frite and Tater. The pair hug, which prompts gagging and groaning from the audience. Feeling beaten down and neglected by Jerry, Tater admits in her talking head that she no longer feels compelled to put her all into the Spud Hut.
At Frite and Tater’s objections, it’s revealed to Carlisle that they aren’t actually coworkers, but rather rivaling potato chains. No longer adversarial, Carlisle confirms that enemies can do whatever they want. During his listing of the things that enemies can do, the phrase “stuff each other” comes up. Jerry makes an immediate connection: Stuffed potatoes.
While everyone is trying to one-up each other and win the sexual harassment training, Tater comes to a realization. She tells everyone that she no longer wants to be with Frite, saying that because it’s allowed, she doesn’t want it anymore.
After the training, Carlisle sits down with Frite, Tater, and Barney, giving them all a pep talk. Tater stands, admitting that she feels like she doesn’t have what it takes to stay in the game. She tells Frite that by not telling her she was a duchess, she was lying by omission, therefore hurting Tater. Tater also admits that she thinks Frite is “everything,” sharing how she thinks she is too cool for Tater, and that Tater is used to dating people who are “literal disgusting farts.” Barney pleads with Tater, saying that he’s ready for a relationship. Frite starts to pick a fight with Barney, but Tater gets between the two, saying that she needs some time alone.
After Tater leaves, Barney tries to flirt with Frite. Frite says that her new action plan is to duel Barney.
