The episode begins with an anteater with glasses ([[WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}} sound familiar?]]), who just found an ant hole and sticks his tongue underground to eat some ants. Unfortunately, however, the ants use all types of ColdBloodedTorture towards him by impaling his tongue, scraping it with a cheese grater, pouring a lemon onto it, sawing it in half, and pouring gasoline to make him explode. The baby any later chants as he makes it out of the ant hole.
