Even though battered after being dragged for miles behind a car, Tracy sets out to find the identity of the man who dragged him. Meanwhile, Wormy returns to the paint shop and begins changing the color of his car. Unknowingly, the exhaust from the gasoline-powered compressor is pooling inside the car where his wife has gone to keep warm. Wormy finishes painting the car, only to find his wife suffocated inside it.
