==Plot==
Three years after the events of ''Spring Breakers'' have passed and Faith, Brit, Candy and Cotty are relaxing in Cotty's room after executing Big Arch in his mansion and placing a corpse of Alien in a funeral service. During that time, the four are watching a [[wikipedia:Horror film|horror movie]] about a feral, bloodthirsty, and murderous [[wikipedia:Gangsta rap|gangsta rap]]ping [[wikipedia:Hippopotamus|hippo]], but the movie is interrupted for a [[wikipedia:Public service announcement|PSA]], much to their annoyance. However, [[Misc:Poochie (The Simpsons)|an anthropomorphic dog]] from ''[[wikipedia:The Simpsons|The Simpsons]]'' (especially ''[[wikipedia:The Itchy & Scratchy Show|The Itchy & Scratchy Show]]'') appears on TV and informs that a trio of christian extremists have escaped death row and the viewers can prevent extremism. Faith likes the idea and tells Candy, Brit, and Cotty about the dog's orders. The others agree, and the four use Candy's laptop to discover ways to prevent extremism; Faith recommends that the four form a firing squad to execute the sect, to which the others like the recommendation.

Carrie eventually executes a drive-by shooting, wounding Faith. Peppermint Patrick tells the girls to retaliate; however, a traumatized Faith decides to return home, so the five give up and head back to the motel after they agree to take her home. While there, Peppermint Patrick gives Faith a therapy and gunshot treatment by giving her cup of water mixed with dextroamphetamine sulfate and toradol, which she drinks. Suddenly, her [[wikipedia:Body inflation|body begins to inflate]], and she eventually bursts out of her torso and becomes a new self and a better gangster.
