A Chicago woman's $100,000 Borders lawsuit over an allegedly loose toilet seat opened the show, but the hosts quickly derailed into Applebee's, Chili's, and baby back ribs. They then debated the name of a half-lemonade, half-iced-tea drink and mocked the claim that it was an Italian restaurant specialty. Mike, Ash, Ashley, Matt, and the others turned that confusion into a long Pulp Fiction quotation game involving the Royale with Cheese, foot massages, Honey Bunny, Zed, and the gimp. The central joke was that the film's menacing dialogue became ridiculous when performed in Ashley's voice, an association they said would spoil—or improve—every future viewing.

What happened, in order

  1. Borders toilet-seat lawsuit

    A Chicago woman sued Borders for at least $100,000, alleging that an unsecured toilet seat shifted, made her fall onto the tile floor, and caused permanent spinal injuries.

  2. Applebee's confusion

    A host inexplicably heard Applebee's instead of Borders, sending the group into a tangent about Matt's recent Chili's meal and its baby back ribs.

  3. The mystery drink

    One host revealed that half lemonade and half iced tea had replaced Diet Coke as the drink ordered every time, while the group struggled to remember its familiar name.

  4. Olive Garden logic

    The hosts mocked the idea that the lemonade-and-tea mixture was an Italian specialty by comparing it to mistaking a Big Mac for a generic burger.

  5. Royale with cheese

    Mike, Ash, and the others slid into an extended Pulp Fiction riff about Amsterdam fries, the metric system, and a Royale with Cheese.

  6. Foot-massage callback

    A wish for a foot massage prompted more Pulp Fiction references before the hosts suggested Mike get simultaneous pedicures and compare the results.

  7. Pulp Fiction in Ashley's voice

    The group discovered that violent Pulp Fiction dialogue sounded absurd in Ashley's voice and repeatedly performed famous lines to make her protest.

  8. One-woman Pulp Fiction

    The hosts imagined a stage performance of the entire movie in Ashley's voice, then acted out Honey Bunny, Zed, and other scenes.

  9. The gimp finale

    The bit peaked with more notorious movie lines, and the hosts admitted that Ashley's voice would now permanently color every future viewing of Pulp Fiction.
