[edit] Synopsis

Kelso pranks Eric, Hyde and Fez twice, and the three vow to get him back. Donna feels bad because it's her parents' anniversary and Bob and Midge aren't together anymore. So Jackie agrees to devote her whole day to Donna. Eric, Hyde and Fez rig a bucket full of oatmeal to fall on Kelso's head when he enters the basement, but the trick goes horribly wrong when Red accidentally becomes the prank victim instead.

Donna and Jackie spend the day getting makeovers, smoking pot and playing Mystery Date with Leo. Instead of punishing him, Red joins forces with Eric to get Kelso, Hyde and Fez back. Eric protests that the latter two are on his team, but according to Red, "your team lost, so everybody cries." Eric invites the three over for dinner and they come, thinking that Red would be working late. But Red arrives after all, and serving lasagna and promising a painful payback, while dropping hints that the lasagna may have been "tampered with." Everyone is forced to eat it when Kitty arrives, but Hyde, Kelso and Fez run off when they discover the special seasoning is actually dead moths from the porch light.

Kelso arrives at Donna's to be with Jackie because he is scared of Red and "doesn't want to be alone." He agrees to take her to the mall and say she's a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader. This convinces Jackie to ditch Donna with a now-sleeping Leo. Red and Eric now plot to go after just Kelso - the "head dummy" as Red puts it. Jackie returns to Donna, feeling bad for ditching her and promising to be the girl in her life to "look after her".

With Hyde and Fez's help, they ice the driveway so Kelso will slip while running towards a planted nudie magazine and slide into a mud puddle. But Kitty ends up taking the fall, hurting her ankle. Red then promises not to do any more pranks, and Kitty reveals she faked her injury so he would do just that. But she tells Red not to worry, because she's faked things plenty of times.
