Plot Summary
Food Truck Trouble
The episode begins with a problem for Bob's Burgers. Many food trucks start parking on the street right in front of Bob's restaurant. These trucks take away all of Bob's customers. Bob tries several ways to make the trucks leave. But nothing works.
So, Bob decides to buy his own food truck. His friend Teddy helps him fix it up. Teddy gives Bob an important warning. He says the grill cannot be on while the truck is moving. If it is, there could be a huge explosion.
On the Road
Later, Gene accidentally causes the explosion Teddy warned about. He turns on the grill while the truck is moving. Teddy fixes the truck again. Bob and the kids, Tina, Gene, and Louise, start working from inside the food truck. Linda, Bob's wife, has to stay behind. She watches over the empty restaurant.
The food truck becomes very popular. It starts doing well. Bob decides to take the truck on the road. He wants to earn even more money. Soon after, Linda closes the restaurant. She joins Bob and the kids on their food truck adventure.
The Food Festival
Bob talks to Randy Watkins, a friend. Bob complains that he is still not making enough money. Randy tells him about a big event called "Lolla-Pa-Foods-A." This festival has a $1,000 prize for the best food truck.
The Belcher family decides to go to the festival. Linda drives the food truck. She quickly gets very angry while driving. At the festival, Tina changes her name to Dina. She hands out free mini burgers to promote their truck. Tina also tells small lies about the burgers to the festival visitors. She even says some are vegetarian.
Louise and Gene try food from other trucks. They then write bad reviews about them online. This helps Bob's truck get more business. Bob ends up winning the $1,000 prize!
A Wild Escape
After Bob wins, Linda accidentally tells everyone about Tina's lies. A big riot starts at the festival. The Belchers and Randy have to hide inside their food truck. After the festival-goers fall asleep, they manage to drive away. But Randy starts the grill while they are driving. This causes another explosion. Everyone has to walk back to town.
