In the town of Eastman, everyone is eating fruit. But Joe Puddy, an "unfortunate carnivore" is just sitting down watching in disgust as his wife, Elaine, uses crazy techniques to get him to eat fruit for once. Joe walks out to go to work, with Elaine storming after him. When they reach the bottom of the apartment building, Elaine asks him when he's going to finally eat some fruit. He replies by sarcastically telling her that he'll only eat fruit during an apocalypse.
