- Animated anthropomorphized characters in a therapy session.
- Dealing with what comes naturally isn't easy, especially for animals. Five animals meet regularly to discuss their inner angst in a group therapy session led by Dr. Leonard Clement, a canine psychotherapist. The group includes Lorraine, a leech who suffers from separation anxiety; Cheryl, a praying mantis who can't seem to keep a man and practices sexual cannibalism; Todd, a pig with an eating disorder; Jeffrey, a bird with guilt issues from a childhood trauma when he pushed his newborn brother out of the nest for trying to eat his worm; and Linda, an obsessive-compulsive cat who is constantly licking herself. On this day, Victor the ape joins the group. Dr. Clement describes how difficult it is to give up compulsive behaviors and uses the fact that he used to enjoy sniffing other dogs' butts as an example. Victor finally shares his only problem is that he has to deal with idiots. He tells of an experience at the grocery store where he had five bananas and someone pointed out that he was in the express lane that limits his cart to 8 items when he had eleven. He tore open the other shopper's frozen peas and gave them a thousand items. As the group members diagnose Victor with anger issues, hostility and aggression, Victor explodes. A fight breaks out and group members and furniture are tossed around the room. R. Clement bears his teeth and jumps on Victor. Victor reaches for a chair leg and tosses it out the window. Dr. Clement instinctively follows it. This shocks the room into calm. Moment later, Dr. Clement climbs through the window with the stick are calmly returns it to Victor. Victor feels sudden remorse for the blow up and admits in tears that he is a monster.
