Ah, garbage!
It's what's for breakfast, lunch and dinner!

This I'll save for a special occasion! Huh?
Hiya, Butch. What's cookin'?
I'll cook you, you freeloadin' sewer rat!
(TRUCK HORN HONKING)
So long, Butchy boy! Thanks for the breakfast! (LAUGHS)
Laugh it up, Frankie! You'll get yours someday!
RICK: Ginger, you gotta get to the airport.
GINGER: Just finishing up! I'll be gone a week.
I know how bad you are in the kitchen.
RICK: Thanks, honey, but I'm a modern evolved dude.
I can fry up an egg with the best of 'em.
Okay, then, "modern dude."
I guess I can just toss all this into the trash.
Holy smorgasbord! You made all my favorites!
Lasagna, cake, muffins, heroes, lasagna...
Hey, cat, this stuff is off-limits. Got it?
GINGER: Ready, Rick. Let's go.
RICK: Remember, Tom, no funny business.

Afternoon, friends. Let's cut through the niceties.
We got a big problem in the neighborhood
and not a lot of time to deal with it.
I only wanna make this speech once. Is anyone else at home?
Good! I overheard the health inspector say
that there was a serious outbreak
of yuckyfoodycoccus at the local market.
Food poisoning. Oh, yeah, real bad.
The market's closed!
But any groceries that may have come from there could be contaminated.
Now, the health inspector's got vacation plans,
and he thinks the bad news can wait until he gets back.
I'm telling you it can't. You know the symptoms of food poisoning, right?
No? Well, first, you get the sweats from overheating.
Then come the arctic bitter chills.
Then the wrenching stomach cramps.
Your joints all stiffen, you swoon
and finally, you see spots and hear the tinkling of little bells, and then...
(SCREAMS)
Of course, years of being a lab rat has made me immune to bad food.
Ah, can you show me where the food is, cat?
I need to do some testing.
(LAUGHS) Thank you.
Now, as you may have noticed, there are no outward signs of anything wrong,
but looks can be deceiving.
(CHEWING NOISILY)
(BELCHES)
Ah!
(CHEWING NOISILY)
Are my eyes playing tricks on me?
Or are you two numbskulls feeding premium chow to a disgusting street rat?
Oh, disgusting street rat?
I prefer to think of myself as a concerned friend
with important connections at the county board of health.
I could've minded my own business, but I care way too much
about total strangers getting food poisoning!
-You are familiar with the symptoms? -Uh-uh.
First, you break out in tropical sweats,
then you get the arctic chills,
then the stomach cramps, you stiffen,
swoon, and by the time you see spots,
and hear the tinkling of tiny bells, it's too late!
You're a goner.
-What are we gonna do? -Glad you asked.
While I continue conducting my tests here,
you're going to wait in the front yard,
and bark up a storm when your owner gets home,
so I can wrap up my review. Sound like a plan?
Sure thing, Mr. Rat!
Hate to impose, but the impurities of the yuckyfoodycoccus
require that I sweat them out in a warm bubble bath.
Mmm, perfect!
What are you up to, mutt? Auditioning for a statue?
Scram, cat! I'm on important business.
(SNIFFS)
Smells like the kitchen is open!
And nobody's home except Tom and Jerry!
I ain't telling youse nothin'!
-Now, scat! -Okay, okay, I'm going! Sheesh!
Ooh la la!
Oh, yeah. That bath really did the trick!
I'm ready to resume testing. Gah!
Hiya Tom, Jerry, Frankie.
How's tricks?
Hoo, boy, the whole food poisoning routine again?
Funny thing is I passed the market on the way over
and uh, it ain't closed!
Choose your weapons, boys.
Now, now, now, don't be hasty!
(FRANKIE SCREAMING)
(CLAMORING)
What are you beating me for? This mooch is eating all your goods!
But let's face it. There's enough here for all of us.
I say we call a truce and share the wealth.
I hate to say it but this bum makes sense for once.
Let the feast begin!
What say we check out some TV
while we, uh, digest a bit?
REPORTER: (ON TV) We interrupt this program with a special news bulletin.
Local supermarkets throughout the area are shutting down immediately,
