Due to his ignorance, Jake cleans out the shop on Chinese New Year, which brings bad luck, and speads the rest of the episode struggling to get all the stuff he threw out back in order to reverse it.

* TemptingFate: Jake succeeds in saving the cursed box from falling only to continue holding it upside-down to gloat about how he's removed his bad luck, resulting in the top falling off and the demons being released.
