"My Big Fat Greek Bob" is the fourth episode of the fourth season of the animated comedy series Bob's Burgers and the overall 49th episode, and is written by Scott Jacobson and directed by Don MacKinnon. It aired on Fox in the United States on November 10, 2013.
Gretchen asks Linda to help her host "marital aid" parties for women. For each different group of women, Linda and Gretchen adapt their strategies, such as making up stories about Bob's lack of sexual prowess in order to break the ice, and better sell the sex toys. Meanwhile, Bob is apprehensive when he fills in for his friend as the cook for a college fraternity, Beta Upsilon Pi. However, he finds the frat's members—including Pud, Hefty Jeff, and Turd—to be down to earth, dorky, and friendly. Pud, the Beta president, explains that they are unpopular and are constantly being pranked by the snooty rival frat, the Alphas. They get Bob to assist them in retaliating against the Alphas by driving them to the Alphas' frat house for a prank. In celebration of his involvement, the Betas have him drink from the frat house treasure: Beta, a hollowed out, taxidermied iguana that was once the house mascot.
Bob spends the night partying with them using a karaoke machine donated to the frat by one of its old alumni, "Slowhand." Hefty Jeff comments that Slowhand is always coming around, trying to relive his glory days, but Pud admonishes him by reminding them that Slowhand has always supported them and given generously to the frat. Bob comes to greatly enjoy the friendship of the Betas and takes the kids to visit the house. They are surprised to find that Dr. Yap is also at the house, and even more surprised to learn that he is "Slowhand." Dr. Yap pushily tries to get the Betas to party and get aggressive over their rivalry with the Alphas, which makes the members uncomfortable. While Yap is upset by the Betas' obvious preference for Bob, he begrudgingly accepts him into their ranks and gives a tour of the house to him and the kids, except for the "Room of Secrets" in the basement, which is for official Betas only.
Later, Bob and the kids go to the frat house only to find Dr. Yap passed out, with his head shaved and his body covered in offensive words and drawings written in marker. Yap wakes up, telling them that the Alphas attacked him and stole Beta, the Iguana. Incensed, Bob and the Betas begin pranking the Alphas, who continue to send them Polaroids of Beta dressed in ludicrous outfits. When the Betas receive a letter of warning from the college dean placing them on academic probation for pranking the Alphas, Yap urges them to make one final strike against the Alphas during an award ceremony for their charity work. Yap has a keg filled with the saliva of his many patients and they plan to rig the keg to explode from under the stage of the ceremony, dousing the Alpha president. As they put the plan into action, the kids manage to break into the Room of Secrets, and find Beta hidden in the wall, along with the Polaroids and outfits allegedly used by the Alphas.
