I warned him!

Marco and Murphy are in a closet playing with a mop and a bucket, whom they have dubbed 'Buckethead Wendy', but Murphy punches it when Marco insinuated that she used to be a hooker. Sparks enters the closet and finds out the hard way that the door mechanism is broken on the inside, leaving them trapped. A claustrophobic Sparks panics and Murphy punches him. And then he punches 'Beard Guy', the repairman sent to repair the door, claiming that as a child he got beaten up a lot, so when he can he tries to sucker punch people first.

Quinn and Debbie come in to have sex, but are interrupted when they learn they are not alone. Murphy's attacking Beard Guy left him with a concussion, leaving him unable to fix the door. After a panicked Sparks suggesting starting a fire to help them escape, Quinn takes Beard Guy's tools and repairs the door himself, only to find feral dogs waiting for them.

It's only then that Murphy reveals the reason he was in the closet in the first place: he had rescued fighting dogs from Guatemala, and had come to get dog food for them since they hadn't been fed in ten days. The rest of the crew laments that they're trapped in the closet, but Murphy points out it could be worse. They could be out in the open with the feral dogs...like Stormy.

The Stinger: Stormy trying and failing to evade the dogs, who tear him apart.

The Other Stinger: Murphy asks Buckethead Wendy if it wants to have his fake mustache on or off, then tells it 'too bad', in an echo of the episode "Chickmate".
