The episode sets off with the shop owner, Ceaser, heading over to his old neighborhood in the Bronx to buy boxes of chicken wings for the event. He meets up with a local, who claims to have the best chicken wings in the city, and he tests out a few flavors before making his purchase. Meanwhile, the rest of the crew is hard at work setting up the event space, decorating the tables, and prepping the chicken wings.

The crew is shocked but supportive as Sky tries to come to terms with seeing her father after all this time. They offer her words of encouragement and tell her they all have her back.
As the day continues, Sky's father tries to make amends with her, but she is hesitant to open up to him. She explains that her childhood was difficult, filled with abuse and neglect, which leads to an emotional conversation between the two. Sky's father apologizes for his past mistakes and promises to be there for her moving forward.
The episode ends with the crew packing up after the successful Chicken Wing Festival, with everyone feeling proud of what they accomplished. Sky and her father sit down to have a heart-to-heart conversation, while the rest of the crew heads back to the shop to continue their tattooing work.
