Plot
Swindler looks around in a dumpster, pulling out numerous objects and placing them on his table. He puts some objects together to create strange devices. Finally he opens a garage sale in hopes of someone buying his expensive products. Petunia comes along and spots a "vacuum", made out of a hamster tube, a leaf blower, and a lever. Swindler says it is a high-quality cleaning product and Petunia purchases it with a large amount of cash.

Petunia is on her way, when she spots piles of dirt on the sidewalk. She turns on her new vacuum and it immediately sucks in the dirt, much to her joy. Josh walks by and Petunia invites him to see her vacuum in action. They are impressed by the vacuum cleaning up the sidewalk, until it pulls Wrinkles' beard hair off his face, causing them to laugh.

Mimi's cell phone gets sucked away by the vacuum. Shocked, Petunia tries to turn off the machine. Due to its poor design, its suction becomes stronger. Giggles' bow gets pulled by the suction, so she hangs on to a branch, only to be decapitated. Russell's shirt gets pulled in, squeezing him into the vacuum.

Back at the garage sale, Swindler counts the money he has earned. Suddenly, his bills are pulled into the vacuum and he runs for them. Swindler chops the vacuum with an axe and stops it. He reaches into the machine and soon pulls out his money. However, this unclogs the vacuum and gets it running again. Swindler is sucked in, followed by Petunia's necklace. Josh chops up the vacuum to save Petunia from choking. It stops again, only to explode.

Lumpy arrives at the garage sale and looks around for an object to buy. He spots some of Swindler's coins and takes them.
