Fed up with Gobo's position as the leader, Red takes him to see the Trash Heap to determine which one of them should be leader, along with a very reluctant Boober. Before they even get there, Red and Gobo are arguing over who should be listened to—and, along with Boober, get caught by Pa, who plans to give them to Junior but forgets. Later, when Junior sits on the basket covering the Fraggles, they pretend they're a genie and convince Junior he's sick and is dying. Junior believes them and lies down, but he blocks the way back to Fraggle Rock. The Fraggles get him out of the way by singing a funeral dirge that he starts dancing to.
