In the episode, Cameron is upset about a tree that is going to get cut down and tries everything he can to prevent it from happening, including climbing on it. Mitchell tries to get him down but when Cameron has to leave after an emergency call, he is the one ending up on the tree. Jay and Phil accompany Manny and Luke to a kid's party where Jay tries to be funny in order to fit in with the crowd but ends up fighting with Phil after an embarrassing story he shared about him. Gloria and Claire go to the supermarket together and after a misunderstanding, they end up at the store's police office for stealing. To get them out of there, Gloria pretends she is in labor. Haley does her community service and Alex tries to take a bad picture of her to post it on Facebook as revenge.
An old tree is going to get cut down and Cameron (Eric Stonestreet) is really upset about it since that tree means a lot to him. Deciding to save the tree, he gets there and climbs up it. Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) is not thrilled with this idea and he is trying to get him down but when Cameron has to leave and go to the theater after an emergency call, Mitchell is the one who ends up sitting on the tree. At the end of the day, they manage to save the tree and Cameron makes it on the newspaper.
In the meantime, Cameron comes home to tell Mitchell they were cutting down the tree at the park where they always picnic: Treeona Helmsley. Even Lily thought it was a nightmare, and clearly she's picked up Cam's gift for hyperbole. Sure enough, Cam went to give the tree one final hug goodbye, and the next thing you know, he's climbed up it. And Lily thinks THAT'S a nightmare. Cam thinks he needs to show Lily the value of what's important. And he'll do that just as soon as Mitchell takes his place in the tree. He had to go replace someone at a play where he was an understudy. Mitchell refused, but Cam pointed out the tree is where Lily first rolled over, where home base was when they played hide-and-go-seek, and where they took shelter from a terrible lightning storm. That was enough for Lily, who begged Mitch to save the tree.
With some urging, Mitch joins in on Cam's efforts to save an old tree in the park, but just how far will they go Jay and Manny are each pushed beyond their comfort zones when they attend a kid's Olympics-themed birthday party, and Claire brings Gloria along on a Costco run -- but add in a "pregnancy brain" and it makes for quite an eventful trip.
El is still holding Vecna back when he tells her that "this is only the beginning. The beginning of the end. You have already lost." She responds, "No. You have," and an absolute banger remix of "Running Up That Hill" cut with the Stranger Things theme song starts to kick in. In Russia, Hopper faces off against the Demogorgon (who refused to go down in Murray's flames like the others), eventually slicing his head clean off with a sword. In the attic of the Creel house, Steve, Nancy, and Robin set Vecna ablaze, as he falls, burning, through the window and outside. For a brief moment, it seems like they are victorious.
Robin arrives and he and Regina share one last embrace before Robin readies to go chain himself to a tree. Regina needs to seal herself in her vault to keep herself in, telling Robin he should be very afraid of her when the spell hits.
In the woods, Hank and Bobby discover a path of dead, stick-impaled animals and are attacked by Dale. It is shown Dale has been in eating what appears to be magic mushrooms, adding to his paranoia. He also plans to kill Hank and swap his clean blood with his. As Bill and Boomhauer are too busy swimming to help, Hank pretends to go along with the plan by using the knife to cut the ropes, but is found out by Dale. Suddenly, Ladybird appears and Bobby and Hank break loose. Ladybird starts to growl and approaches Hank. Bobby grabs the gun and prepares to shoot Ladybird to Dale's urging. He appears to shoot, but misses Ladybird, much to Hank's joy- as
