[At the Kwik-E-Mart, an obviously ill man sneezes on a package of cold/flu medication as he approaches the counter.]
Flu Sufferer: Wow, I need something strong to dry up all this nose gravy! I hope this medication helps.
Apu: I am sorry, sir, but I cannot be accepting your disease-tinged currency!
Flu Sufferer: Well, how else am I supposed to pay for it?!
[Just then, Snake bursts into the store, wearing a ski mask and brandishing a pistol.]
Snake Jailbird: Like, totally freeze and give me your wallet pronto! [He makes the theft and exits.]
Flu Sufferer: Hey, he took my medicine, too!
Apu: Do not worry. I had pressed my panic button for the police to come and remove you from the store! Now they can take you and that no-goodnik away!

[Outside the store, Snake revels in his success.]
Snake: Ahh, the sweet smell of illegally gotten gains! [sniffs the Flu Sufferer's wallet]
[The sound of sirens is heard in the distance. The sound gets closer and a police car comes into view.]
Snake: Oh, cheese and crackers ... The fuzz! [He gets into his car and drives off.]
Chief Wiggum: [in pursuit, using a megaphone] ALLEGED PERPETRATOR, PULL OVER OR I WILL BE FORCED TO SHOOT!
Lou: [handling the wheel while Wiggum leans out the window with the megaphone] Um, Chief, how do we know for sure that's the guy we're supposed to be chasing?
Wiggum: Lou, you know I'm a shoot-first, lawsuit-later cop! Now, hold 'er steady!

[Meanwhile, in the car being chased ...]
Snake: Whoa, totally not feeling awesome anymore! Ahh ... ahh ... ahh... choo! [He sneezes, coating the steering wheel with phlegm.] Grody!
[Snake's car goes into a spin on the snow-packed street.]
Snake: Uh-oh...So not cool! [He crashes into a snowbank at the base of the Lard Lad statue, then gets out of the car and runs away on foot.]

[A moment later, Chief Wiggum and Lou arrive at Snake's crashed car.]
Wiggum: [using megaphone] CITIZEN, COME OUT WITH YOUR MITTENS UP!
[No response. They approach the car: Lou first, followed closely by Wiggum.]
Wiggum: [still using megaphone] LOOKS LIKE HE GOT AWAY, LOU!
[Lou jumps, due to the megaphone-in-the-ear treatment, but quickly recovers his composure.]

Sarah Wiggum: Clancy, you're home early! Are you feeling all right?
Wiggum: Ehh...not so much. Think I'm just gonna lie down for a bit, dear. [He puts his keys, a handful of bullets, and the Petri dish of phlegm into a bowl.]
Sarah Wiggum: You rest, Clancy, and I'll come get you when dinner's ready. [She walks him to the bedroom.]
[Ralph enters the room, looks into the bowl, and sees the Petri dish.]
Ralph Wiggum: Daddy's stink breath candy! He won't notice if I take one or ten. [opens the dish and runs his fingers through it] This isn't candy! It's some sort of paste! Ohh...I know what I can use this stuff for!

[That evening, Ralph is at the Simpson home, where he and Lisa are partners on a school project. Ralph holds the Petri dish while Lisa dips her fingers into the contents and uses them as paste for a diorama.]
Lisa: Are you sure this stuff is paste, Ralph? It feels...different.
Ralph: Only one way to know for sure... [dips his fingers into the dish and takes a taste, smearing his lips and tongue with it] It doesn't taste like paste, but maybe it's the kind policey men use to make their handcuffs stick?
Lisa: Twenty-eight other kids in class and I get paired with you as my partner? "Top of the world, Ma..." [points at the door] Go wash your face, Ralph!
[Ralph heads for the bathroom. On the way, he meets up with Santa's Little Helper.]
Ralph: Hey, boy, I bet you can help me get this stuff off!
[SLH enthusiastically licks Ralph's face and does just that. Then the doorbell rings and SLH runs toward the stairs and the front door.]

Moe Szyslak: [holding out his arms for Maggie] There's my favorite girl! Give us a hug already... [Santa's Little Helper comes bounding down the stairs, leaps into Moe's arms, and licks him on the face.] All right, all right...I love you too, you silly mutt!
Marge: Thanks for baby-sitting Maggie for us, Moe. I think she's more excited about our date night than we are!
Moe: No worries, Midge. We're gonna have a great time watching that Real Midwives of Amish Country marathon on Bravo! [He sets SLH down on the floor, takes Maggie from Marge, and gives Maggie a kiss.]
