* FourLinesAllWaiting: The A-Plot of the episode consists of Hank going a bit overboard to make sure nothing gets damaged while they don't have insurance. The B-Plot involves Dale becoming a SnakeOilSalesman by trying to peddle bee venom as a miracle cure. The C-Plot involves Bill and Boomhauer testing out what foods they can potentially deep fry. The D-Plot involves Peggy and Luanne trying to survive in the park while they wait for their insurance to kick back in so they can drive back home. The first three all eventually converge at the episodes climax, while the fourth at least hints at what's about to happen to Peggy and Luanne.

Since the only food they have is the vending machine and they're out of money, they manage to get food from it by constantly ramming it to knock the snacks loose.
