It’s the post holiday break down on Jones and Mike. Mike fears the actions and poor decision making skills of his fellow humanoids as ‘Merica’s most dangerous weekend gets underway. Drinking and M-80s notwithstanding Jones prepares for his annual escape from the holiday festivities as he tells Mike about a childhood experience that has caused him to shun fireworks forever. Not much of a fan of the Fourth himself, or any holidays for that matter, Mike bemoans the gluttonous nature of the Fourth, Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc; and Jones talks about taking candy/cookies from babies.
