HTF's Episode Description
Funny how these two characters end up in another wet, dark, disastrous situation! Stranded in the belly of a whale, Lumpy and Russell pool their resources to find a way out. Will they get eaten alive or do they find their way to freedom? It's an adventure you don't want to miss!

Plot
Petunia gets dead, Russell happily sits in his boat, humming and holding a harpoon. As he looks through his telescope, he realizes he's floating in the open mouth of a giant whale. Having no time to react, Russell gets eaten.

Inside the whale, Russell lights a match to take in his surroundings. He finds fish skeletons, treasure, garbage, and a road raged Lumpy sitting in his car and honking his horn. Lumpy turns on his car's headlights and they both see that they have no way out. Russell, however, gets an idea.

They bundle some sticks together and Russell pulls out a box of matches. Looking inside, they see there's only one match left. After several unsuccessful attempts, Russell manages to light the match, only for Lumpy to sneeze it out. Next, Lumpy lifts Russell up to the whale's uvula. Russell stabs, and pulls on, the uvula with his hook. This only succeeds making the whale vomit all over them.

Disheartened, Russell and Lumpy find a new hope when they look up and see the whale's blowhole. Russell throws his harpoon towards the blowhole, but unfortunately he misses and the falling object pierces Lumpy's head. Russell starts to go mad, and begins using his hook to slash the inside of the whale's stomach. The whale, feeling the pain of Russell's hook, fires Russell out of its blowhole.

At first Russell is still laughing and slashing around like a maniac, but he rejoices upon learning that he's free. Sadly, Russell's head gets impaled on the mast of a nearby ship. The whale shows up and eats the boat.

Moral
"Don't bite off more than you can chew!"

Trivia

 * 2) Among the items inside the whale is The Cursed Idol.
 * 3) The scene where Lumpy and Russell try to make a fire is later seen in Milk Pong.
 * 4) This episode might be a refrence to the story of Jonah, where Jonah is swallowed by a whale for disobeying God. It could also be a reference to Pincchio.
 * 5) This is the first episode with the new opening where Russell appears.
 * 6) This is the first episode where Russel dosen't have a stubble.
 * 7) This is one of the only three episodes that Lumpy dies first, the others being Milkin' It and I've Got You Under My Skin'.
