In "That '70s Musical," the gang from Point Place, Wisconsin, are getting ready to graduate from high school. They celebrate with a series of musical numbers that pay homage to the decade they grew up in.
It all begins with Eric, who is organizing his graduation party. However, his parents, Kitty and Red, get into a heated argument about the guest list. Kitty wants to invite everyone, including Eric's friends' parents, while Red wants to keep it small and intimate. The argument escalates, causing Eric to storm out of the house.
While Eric is walking around town, he bumps into his ex-girlfriend, Donna. The two catch up and decide to go to their old high school to reminisce. Once there, they run into their friends Hyde, Fez, Kelso, and Jackie. Eric suggest that they all go into the school auditorium and put on a show. The group agrees, with Hyde insisting that they sing music from the 1970s.

Meanwhile, Eric's sister, Laurie, returns from college and brings along her new boyfriend, Randy. The gang is initially wary of Randy, but they eventually warm up to him. However, Laurie drops a bombshell on the group: she got married in Las Vegas. This news shocks everyone, but they all come together to support Laurie.
The episode ends with the group graduating from high school and heading off into their respective futures. Eric and Donna leave for California, while Hyde and Jackie plan to move to Chicago. Kelso decides to stay in Point Place to become a cop, and Fez is unsure of what the future holds for him.
