In this week's episode, Patrick's spirit is broken by a series of horrible news stories from the past week, so for the sake of their sanity he and Tommie move on to dog shelters, catch the scent of a Barak Hound, salute the late Hurricane the Secret Service dog, celebrate a man who studied the stars and another who became a Warhol superstar, Tommie reveals a centuries-old, world-wide conspiracy, Tommie reviews the film Wicked, and he and Patrick name their favorite songs of hope and despair.
