  • Venenum Ex Machina
    Dr Mountebank complains about too few pill factory workers to Bolaf and annoys Morph. Bolaf recommends changing over to machine production, but this would require the time for construction appropriate machinery first. Morph calls the mayor and tricks him into approving the idea.
  • Alzheimer's Wanderlust
    To remember what she wanted to do, forgetful Emily walks around. When after a while she arrives in Butthaven City, she spots a Happy Pill advertisement and remembers that she needs some. A cop shows her the way to the next pharmacy. Emily walks across a fairground where she steals a little boy's candyfloss. At the pharmacy, whose pills are sold out, she has to switch to plan B, that is, indulge in absinthe. Later, at home, she can't remember where the bottle is.

  • Down In The Catacombs
    Dr Mountebank enquires the pill machine of Morph who still hasn't found a location for it. Bolaf suggests checking an old hut in the institute's area. It's sufficient for serving as storage and seems to have a cellar room which is not directly accessible though. Morph asks Dr Lovejoy, and they make a tour through the institute's basement.
  • Ejection!
    Morph, Bolaf, Jay and Dr Quimsy carry the pill machine in its cellar room, so Dr Mountebank can start pill fabrication. Bolaf paints a huge logo on the hut's front wall. By the end of the day, when the mayor arrives, they've managed to package eight big boxes of Hycatox units, ready for shipment.
