Plot:
Craving a family vacation, Lois books an Airbnb in Nantucket, Massachusetts despite it being the off-season. After everyone enjoys themselves, Lois decides to book the same house again, only to find that she has been banned from the Airbnb app due to a poor review, citing a stolen object. When everyone else reveals they didn't take anything, Lois hears from Dottie, the home's owner, that a fancy bottle of shampoo went missing, quickly realizing that she's the one who stole it, although she remains defensive about this. Once Bonnie rubs it in even further, Lois decides to return the shampoo in person, though Dottie refuses to change her review. Refusing to let her win, an angered Lois stakes out her home to find that her weakness is Doordash. Becoming a driver, she delivers Dottie's order without issue, but blackmails her into changing her Airbnb review by threatening to leave a negative review of her own. Dottie complies, and is told off by Lois about the dangers of letting strangers into her home.
Meanwhile, Stewie and Brian discover the wonders of saltwater taffy during their trip, and upon realizing how cheap it must be due to it being the off-season, they decide to purchase it in bulk and sell it back home for a profit. Following a strenuous rehearsal process, the two start selling their wares throughout the neighborhood, but aside from Bruce, nobody seems to be interested in the product. Stewie and Brian decide to rebrand their taffy as something else to win the public over, ultimately deciding on "ChewAnon," which they successfully sell to Donald Trump's supporters at his various rallies.
