They Serve Horses, Don't They?

Jimmy Pesto arrives at Bob's Burgers to brag about his new meat provider, Jack Conway, who saves him a substantial amount of money. Bob is interested and hires Conway; the two take an instant liking to each other, and Teddy and the customers enjoy the quality of the meat, which Conway sells as USDA prime beef. However, Hugo the health inspector arrives and informs Bob that Conway is in fact selling horse meat – a revelation that angers Tina (Due to her love for horses) and Teddy, though Teddy quickly takes a liking to the new product. Hugo offers to leave the restaurant alone if Bob aids him in a sting operation, which Hugo describes as a "way out of his jurisdiction" that he is performing to spite the FDA. Hugo straps a toy microphone and a tape recorder to Bob's chest, telling Bob he needs two things on tape: a record of the transaction, and a record of Conway claiming his product as USDA prime. However, various mishaps prevent Bob from collecting the information for Hugo, and the restaurant's walk-in is soon filled with unnecessary purchases of horse meat.

Conway invites the Belchers to his birthday party at his house, where they meet his pregnant wife. Tina tries to prevent Jimmy Jr. from eating the hot dogs the Conways serve, which she suspects contain horse meat. Bob once again tries to collect the information from Conway. Conway, finally suspicious, invites Bob into his house and tells him he knows about the sting. After inadvertently revealing the conversation is going straight to tape, Conway attempts to steal the tape and chases Bob through the party to steal it. Bob gets stuck in a bush but manages to throw the tape to Hugo; Conway is fined and begins selling beef. Nonetheless, Conway maintains no hard feelings towards the Belchers and drops by the restaurant to announce he's writing a book on his experience in the meat industry: "Friday Night Meats". Meanwhile, Jimmy Pesto is angered that he no longer has access to cheap meat.
