TBA
Plot[]
Duckman is in a strange trancelike state, being led about the city by Fluffy and Uranus. A brief flashback reveals it has something to do with a can of bug spray and a shower.
Meanwhile at home, Charles and Mambo return and report that they've seen Duckman staggering around downtown. They show Bernice and Ajax a video tape they took of him.
Back on the street, Duckman believes Fluffy and Uranus are his parents, but a sleeping bum in an alley causes him to get flashbacks to the shower incident, so he runs off.
Charles and Mambo discover the can of bug spray and show it to Cornfed, who discovers it has hallucinogenic effects.
Duckman steals a sack of potatoes, convinced it is Ajax and ends up running from the law, thinking they are out to get his son. He escapes down a manhole where Fluffy and Uranus catch up to him and tell him the sack is not Ajax, which leads Duckman to the conclusion that it must be Charles and Mambo. He comes across a group of sewer people and accidentally becomes their leader. He sets them loose above ground where they are all arrested, including Duckman. Cornfed finds him at the police station and causes him to remember the memory that made him lose control of his mind. It turns out Duckman walked in on Bernice in the shower. Confronting the memory allows Duckman's mind to return to normal. he kills Fluffy and Uranus in the microwave and returns home where he is greeted warmly by his children, and introduces them to the potato sack dubbed "Spud." He then tells the reader "Just because seeing my sister in-law naked drove me crazy, there's no need to be ashamed of your bodies. But let's keep em' covered just the same unless you're a nice looking babe."
