Telly feels useless until Gina gives him a pep talk to make him feel special. Telly reveals that Gordon wants fresh vegetables for a salad, but Gina breaks the news that the produce truck hasn't come yet. Gordon then comes in to pick up his vegetables since he just got the phone call he was waiting for, then invites Telly to join him for scrambled eggs and toast as an alternative.

Gina announces the sponsors while resisting the temptation to argue with Grundgetta, eventually failing and snapping at her while Grundgetta cackles.
