In an introductory frame, [[Dr. Hibbert]] describes the story as an example of "how a little carelessness leads to a lot of misery". The story begins in the [[Kwik-E-Mart]], where an [[Flu Sufferer|obviously ill man]] approaches the counter to buy some [[Flu Fighters|flu medication]]. [[Apu]], seeing the man sneezing on his wallet and on the box of medication, refuses to accept his "disease-tinged currency", leaving him at a loss for how to pay. Just then, [[Snake]] bursts into the store, steals the man's wallet and the medication he was going to buy, and runs off.

When Snake gets to his car, he takes a deep sniff of the man's wallet, exulting in "the sweet smell of illegally gotten gains". He hears the siren of an approaching [[Springfield Police Department|Springfield Police]] car, jumps into his own car, and drives off at high speed.
