The man hangs onto the hood as Ted races away from the caravan park, losing the towel along the way. Ted eventually stops, giving time for the man to get off, find a glass bottle and puncture the car's tires before walking off. Ted and Dougal, refusing to go back to the park, look to hitchhike home. They are elated when island eccentric Tom, transporting raw sewage in a tanker-truck, offers them a ride.
