While hunting moose, Jake and Malacky stumble upon a gulag run by the Provincial Government in the woods south of Gander. They knock out two guards, and dressed up in uniform, enter the gulag to investigate. Jake and Malacky think it must be a secret prison for detainees in the "war against terror." However, they meet a prisoner, Jessie "Ivan" Roberts who tells them that the prison is for Newfoundlanders who were identified as Anti Republic of Doyle "extremists." These Anti-Doylites were uncovered by the Newfoundland Cultural Secret Services, and are being held until the end of the series.
When Jessie discovers their true identity, he tells Jake, "sorry b'ys, I just don't care for the show is all. I likes the show where they have the Dragons right, and the b'ys come in ask for money, and the Dragons say 'frig off!'... Can you do an episode like that?"
The existence of the prison creates a rift in the family- Malacky is appalled and wants to see the Anti Doylites free to express their preference for other CBC programming, while Jake prefers to let justice take it's course. When the prison population discovers Jake and Malacky, Jake tries to win them over by leading a rousing rendition of "Oh yeah!" and taking his shirt off. After this episode, will the prison population decrease or increase?
