Taggart and his big tool to the rescue.

Carter: Taggart.
Taggart: Mm?
Carter: You're naked.
Taggart: Au Naturale.
Carter: May I ask why?
Taggart: Why not?
Carter: Unfortunately, that doesn't tell me if you're affected or not.

Fargo's emnity with his noisy neighbour causes chaos when his sabotage leads to crazy behaviour from the residents of Eureka. Secrets are revealed and grievances aired when people lose their inhibitions, leaving Carter to figure out what's happenning.

Tropes

  • Above the Influence: When Allison attempts to seduce Jack, he rejects her because he realizes she is Not Herself.
    Carter: I can't!
    Allison: [glances down, amused] Really?
    Carter: Oh, no, I mean, I can! I'm fully capable.
  • Cat Fight: Allison and Beverly have one.
  • Dress Hits Floor: Allison, when she tries to seduce Carter.
  • Dude, Where's My Respect?:
    • Fargo's attitude to having his sleep disrupted.
    Fargo: People do not appreciate my role here. I am the grease on the cogs that turn the gears in this machine that is Eureka!
    • Turned right around on him by Carter, to whom he's complaining.
    Fargo: I'm sure you did a great job in the last town you worked in...
    Carter: America, Fargo. I was a US Marshal. America was my last town.
  • Loss of Inhibitions: Eureka's townsfolk lose inhibitions and become self-absorbed.
  • Naked Nutter: Taggart strolls around Eureka naked. Which may or may not be caused by the spores.
  • Not Himself: Everyone but Jack and Zoe, due to Seth's hybrid plants.
  • Shout-Out:
  • Something Only They Would Say: When Jack goes home, he finds Zoe scared and armed with a baseball bat. When she asks how she knows it's really him, he looks closer at the bat and blows up because it's his autographed World Series bat. Zoe sags with relief and hands him the bat.
