Liz Lemon is in charge of making a promotional video for the "female Viagra" drug, which will be aired during the Super Bowl halftime show. However, when Tracy Jordan realizes that he doesn't have any plans for the Super Bowl, he demands that he be part of the video. Meanwhile, Jack Donaghy is preoccupied with his arch nemesis, Devin Banks, who is now working at NBC and trying to steal Jack's ideas for Kabletown. Kenneth Parcell is also on a mission to help Tracy find the perfect Super Bowl party to attend.
Despite Liz's attempts to keep Tracy away from the "female Viagra" video shoot, he manages to sneak onto the set and accidentally ingests the drug. The side effects of the drug send Tracy on a wild adventure that includes running away from a mobster named Danger (played by New York Giants player, Michael Strahan), who believes that Tracy owes him money. In a series of flashbacks, we see how Tracy's past actions led to him owing Danger a large sum of money. Tracy's adventure also involves a cameo from "Jersey Shore" cast member, Snooki.
Meanwhile, Jack's attempts to get one over on Devin Banks, who has been promoted to his boss, backfire when Banks catches him trying to steal his ideas. In an effort to win Banks over, Jack throws a fake bachelor party for him which ends up being a disaster. Kenneth's attempts to find Tracy a perfect Super Bowl party also result in chaos as he inadvertently leads Tracy to Danger.
As the chaos continues to unfold, Liz desperately tries to salvage the promotional video which is set to air during the Super Bowl halftime show. With Tracy missing, Liz fills in for him in the video which results in an unexpected ending that shocks both Liz and the audience.
