Leslie and Ben travel to Ben's hometown, Partridge, Minnesota for a ceremony honoring Ben and giving him a key to the city. Ben has anxiety about returning to the town because when he was mayor he ruined the town's finances and economy by investing in Ice Town. On the day of the ceremony, Ben ends up with kidney stones and Leslie goes to accept the key on behalf of Ben. It turns out the town was just inviting Ben there to make fun of him and not really give him a key. Leslie stuck up for her husband and then stole the actual key when her and Ben confronted the mayor about the whole situation. Ben threw it in the lake and him and Leslie were practically chased out of Partridge.
