Todd Ray has recently expanded his Venice Beach Freakshow and holds open auditions to find new talent. As an array of skilled and not-so-skilled performers audition, the Freakshow family realizes that finding a new addition won't be easy. Ali worries about her job security after a man who's even littler than she is performs on a skateboard; Morgue is less than impressed with any of the performers' stage presences; and Todd is intrigued by a snake lady, but Asia is troubled by the sexual nature of the act. Later, Morgue and Asia discuss the auditions, and he informs her that he has been working on a new stunt that is "more dangerous" than anything he's ever done. Meanwhile, Garry "Stretch" Turner (the man with "the stretchiest skin in the world") arrives at the Freakshow. Todd has asked Garry to perform at the Grand Reopening. The big day arrives, and Todd introduces his selection for the newest member of the Freakshow family, Jenevieve the Serpentine Sorceress, to Asia's dismay.

Everyone at the Freakshow is excited for Boobzilla, a performer who crushes soda cans and lifts objects with her size 44R cup breasts. When she arrives, she explains that her large chest is due to gigantomastia, a condition that causes her breasts to grow uncontrollably. For her debut Freakshow performance, Boobzilla would like to lift Amazing Ali with her breasts. Unfortunately, Ali has been experiencing hip pain and doesn't think she'll be able to do the stunt. With Todd's urging, Ali visits a doctor, who says hip replacement surgery is her only option. Ali fears that a lengthy absence from the Freakshow will make her seem obsolete, but Todd assures her that her position will be there when she returns. Before her surgery, the Freakshow gang visits Ali at the hospital. After a lengthy wait, Ali's doctor arrives and delivers the good news: Ali's surgery went great.

Creature is looking for a place to live but finds that his appearance is off-putting to potential roommates. He confides in Todd and tells him that sometimes he feels like he is "cursed." Todd offers encouragement, explaining that the adversity Creature is facing will only make him a stronger person. At the Freakshow, Todd is preparing for a special tattoo event. The first performer to arrive is Brian "Legz" Tagalog, an armless tattoo artist who uses his feet to draw tattoos. Next is Matt Gone, a man who has tattoos covering 99% of his body, including his tongue and eyeballs. Matt made a negative comment about Creature's tattoos and piercings online, as well as the two buttheads. Their conflict is quickly resolved after Matt apologizes.

For the Freakshow's first nighttime show, Todd asks the performers to come up with new stunts that they normally wouldn't do during the day. Asia discusses her desire to bring more danger to her Electric Lady act. Todd suggests that she work with Miss Electra, a performer famous for her Tesla coil lightning bolt stunt. Before Asia is able to contact Miss Electra herself, Todd meets with her and discusses passing on the stunt to Asia. Miss Electra is reticent. Later, on her own accord, Asia convinces Miss Electra to come see her perform at the Freakshow. Miss Electra is impressed and agrees to teach her how to use the Tesla coil.
