Shake is busy expectorating in order to make a mucus-man. Frylock notes that the mucus must be heated to the proper consistency, so Shake brings home a grill, the Char-Nobyl 6000, which uses "actual pieces of the sun combined with some radioactive vials from Chernobyl." After starting it, Shake cannot turn the grill off. The heat it produces is intense, and the ionizing radiation it emits destroys the ozone layer, leading eventually to the enslavement of mankind.
