Martin, who had previously tried to kill himself following the so-called "Eggroll Incident," has been released from the mental hospital.

Martin's first appointment consists of a single question. They skip out on the rest of the appointment to go to a softball game, which Orloff drags Martin to. Screwball adventures ensue.
