Plot[]
This episode begins with The Farmer packing things on his truck. The farmer then drives off to deliver them to another house. Bitzer is left in the house and decides to have a bath. In the barn, the flock and Shaun are watching a movie. However, Shaun hears Bitzer blowing his whistle and runs to the farmhouse to see Bitzer on top of the staircase. He says that there's a spider, and Shaun gets rid of the spider for him.
Bitzer opens the tub plug and sees the spider again. Bitzer runs down the stairs to hide. Shaun enters the bathroom to wash the spider from the sink, but the spider still gets out from the inside sink. Shaun puts the spider from the inside sink again but still escapes. He blows the spider, then uses the bathroom things and puts the spider inside the sink. The spider escapes from the toilet and Shaun flushes the toilet, washing the spider into the kitchen sink.
After Bitzer drinks tea, he starts to wash the teapot, but the spider appears, scaring Bitzer. Bitzer tries to swat the spider, but the spider isn't killed, as Shaun sees this, an emerged Bitzer bursts from the door, hiding from the storage room. Shaun then washes the spider down the sink. The spider is washed by the pipe just from the farmhouse akin to the barn. The spider appears above Shirley, and they signal the spider to go away.
The spider then lands on Shirley's hand and will notice it. The scene cuts from the barn outside and the flock are screaming in fear because of the spider in Shirley's hand. Shaun and Bitzer came to the barn and saw the flock which are like a tower. Bitzer joins and tries to get at the top and the flock fell down. The flock noticed the spider in Bitzer's nose and Bitzer tries to swat it 3 times but glanced at the spatula. Shaun asks the flock as if they can get out. The flock ran and Shirley stops to avoid the spider and the flock were bounced from the window, except for Bitzer and Timmy. The flock hits Shaun, where his head is hurt. The flock hides so Shaun can swat the spider.
The flock notices the swat and Shaun appears from the outside. They notice the swatted spider and cheer for Shaun. After that, Bitzer is about to have a bath, but the farmer is taking a shower while Shaun is releases the spider into the field.
