The Rockhopper crew decides to take a day off by going on a picnic, but when they get to Rigel 13, it is full of trash. And to make matters worse, there are giant ants.
Lazy Tropes:
- Big Creepy-Crawlies: The giant ants on Rigel 13.
- Crossword Puzzle: At the beginning, Zidgel tries to figure out a 12-down word that has seven letters, refers to a ship commander, and starts with C. His guess later on? Cabbage.
- Good All Along: It turns out the giant ants aren't Cavitus' minions or are on Rigel 13 to cause trouble. They were just sent to clean up all the trash Cavitus dumped on the planet.
- Picnic Episode: Ants ruining it included. And the ants are giant.
- Prompting Nudge: Midgel nudges Zidgel in the chest roughly in order to get him to apologize for being lazy.
- Sea Aping: This episode starts off with Jason wanting to borrow money from Michelle in order to buy some sea chimps.
- Stock Star Systems: This episode features a planet named "Rigel 13", implying that it orbits the Rigel star.
