- Tim explains Dippin Dots as frozen pellets of ice cream that look like rabbit droppings, usually found at rest stops.
- Story: Tim and someone stole Dippin Dots from Wawa and never paid for them.
- The Dippin Dots CEO Scott Fisher was arrested for public intoxication, domestic violence by strangulation, and running outside naked in a drunken rage.
- Tim jokes the girlfriend probably insulted the ice cream, saying it had always sucked.
- Fisher attacked the woman hours after she confronted him about his alcohol abuse, which had escalated over several weeks.
- Tim shifts to mental health crisis: the country's untreated mental illness is so severe that many people are on the brink of breakdown or violence.
- Tennessee man murdered his estranged wife, her daughter, and three kids after she took him to court; he owned 50 or 60 guns and she feared he would get drunk and shoot.
