An upset Neil bursts into the house, interrupting a story Rick is telling to an uninterested Vyvyan and Mike, and describes an encounter in which a complete stranger called him smelly. Mike realizes that none of the four have washed any laundry for over two years. One of Vyvyan's dirty socks comes to life and tries to escape the house; after they destroy it, Mike insists that they visit the local launderette immediately, but Vyvyan reminds him that they have to wait until it opens the next morning.
