 [[Mayor Quimby]] holds a debate about no longer celebrating {{W|Columbus Day}} due to [[Christopher Columbus]]' problematic behavior, and everyone agrees except the people of [[Italy|Italian]] origins. Afterwards, he allows [[Helen Lovejoy]] to take the stand, raising concerns about DIY free libraries appearing all over town and the possibility of them containing books like the *Kamasutra*. [[Homer]] proposes bringing all the books together into one place for everyone to read, essentially creating a library, but the crowd laughs at him—even though the debate is being held in a library.
-To cheer him up, [[Marge]] takes the family to the [[Springfield Zoo]], where even the animals appear to think Homer is dumb. They eventually reach the exhibit for [[Slow Leonard]], only to find the tortoise is missing. They are approached by the zoo director, and Homer attempts to persuade him to search for the tortoise.

He returns to the zoo to livestream his investigation. The exhibit has been replaced by Pete the prairie dog’s. Looking around, he spots a nearby house with a door cam—[[Chalmers' house]].

It’s revealed that the yarn they used for conspiracy boards contains a hidden camera, and the producers, McClellan’s, are monitoring conspiracy groups worldwide. Sales of their yarn are skyrocketing thanks to the group.
