After Tripp is dumped by Lana, he takes out his anger by writing a song called "I Wanna Punch Stuff". Later, Tripp invites Iron Weasel's former roadie-turned-MMA fighter "Ernesto the Besto", who wants revenge after they accidentally pantsed him during his proposal to his girlfriend, declaring that he will 'destroy them'. Tripp, who was unaware of the incident until after he invited Ernesto, confronts him by offering to let him use his song as Ernesto's entrance music for his fight. Tripp, however, gets back together with Lana and is too lovesick to put more anger into the second half of the song. The band members of Iron Weasel get Lana to dump Tripp again so he will be angry enough to finish Ernesto's song by lying to her and saying he is seeing another girl named Angie (which is actually what Tripp calls his guitar). After performing the finished song at Ernesto's fight, Derek accidentally pants' Ernesto again with his microphone stand, making him so mad that he is later jailed for "running rampant through town, pantsing innocent, pants-wearing bystanders".
