Trying to look cool for a gig at the Grand Opening of New York's one-block New Zealand enclave, the Conchords end up getting hooked on hair gel.

The issue is debated, but the band quickly embrace the change and demonstrate themselves in a series of bad hair dos.

Unfortunately, they've run out of hair gel and, with only their natural charm and musical talent at their disposal, the Conchords end up driving away yet another audience.

The episode's subplot makes various references to the Bus Driver's Song, which is featured in their Folk the World Tour CD and during live performances.

Prime Minister Brian, who is incidentally shown driving the tour bus, has a love interest named Paula.
