On this episode, clumsy Chernobyl reactor engineer, Tom, and mediocre bridge construction contractor who lost his dog through no fault of his own, V, wander the West Virginia countryside looking for impending apocalyptic events to foretell. Tom solves the national budget crisis merely by charging a "very fair" $5 ticket price at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and V conducts on-the-job training for the new human resources coordinator John Mothman.
