Storyline

Winslow needs money now to pay off gambling debts. If only his rich uncle Albert would die. But his orderlies are very good. Maybe by hiring three of the worst orderlies around, he can speed things up. Fortunately for him, he finds Markie, Buffy, and Kool, who have just been fired from their last job. With them around, he should have the money real soon. Written by Brian W Martz <B.Martz@Genie.com>

Goofs

Miscellaneous: At one point the medicine machine goes off alerting the Fat Boys that it's time for Albert's medication. The time on it reads 8:15. Later that evening when Albert's in bed, the camera pans to a clock that reads just a few minutes after 8:00. See more »

Quotes

[Kool, Buffy, and Markie sneak back into the house and quietly get Albert in his all terrain wheelchair suddenly the lights come on followed by Chauncey giving two growling barks. Everyone's standing there and Kool, Buffy, and Mark realize they've been caught]
Winslow Lowry: You've ruined my plans for the evening.
[after a second's pause]
Winslow Lowry: Listen, from now on I want Albert at home. Where he belongs. Where he's safe. Where he's loved.
Albert Dennison: Chill out, Winslow. We just went to an all night drug store to get some medicine. And it worked.
