Episode 157

Tripp and Jeff return from an important mission to buy explosives for Big Momma's trench/Native American blow-out, but they only have a lavender-vanilla Yankee Candle to show for it.  Tripp's mother, Angelica, mistakes the candle for the dynamite they were supposed to buy, thinking it must be one excellent stick for the money.  She plans to put it secretly on Native lands, blowing them up, securing Big Momma's trench, and getting her son and friend accolades.  Tripp just gets the idea that they can sneak onto the reservation to buy themselves "some good stuff".

An evil laugh floats on a foul wind to Angelica: the self-styled "Uber Minion", who tried to eliminate Angelica to become Big Momma's only minion!  He has returned, not with vengeance, but with an offer to join forces!  He wants to dethrone Big Momma, which shocks Angelica.  Angelica brags about the explosives that will finally complete Big Momma's plans!  Unfortunately, a pizza delivery person interrupts them and unexpectedly whips out a lighter and lights up the candle.  Angelica braces for the explosion, and everyone else relaxes with the lavender-vanilla.  Angelica goes in search of her son.  Uber Minion says he'll be waiting for her to join him...

Local weatherman Jeffrey Barber announces a plague of locusts about to swarm Solomon's River.

An old couple watching the report, Grandma and Grandpa, try to remember the last plague in aught-four.  They grab their Bibles to pray and Grandpa notices some pages have been chewed out by their granddaughter, who should be changing Great-Grandpa.  Grandma opens the door and locust swarm, eating them all down to skeletons.

The locust swarm continues to sweep across Solomon's River, closer and closer to the city proper.

A local hardware store tries to take advantage of the plague by discounting flamethrowers.
