Episode begins with what appears to be Joe's lifeless body floating in water and we hear his voice telling how he got to this point. It began when a passenger is looking for his briefcase that he left on the plane and was not returned to him. And he demands that Joe locate it. And that's when everyone starts dumping on Joe: Antonio wanting Joe to co-sign for him when he goes to the bank to apply for a loan to buy a new cab, Brian is concerned that his first intimate moment with Alex was not outstanding, Helen concerned about her relationship with her boyfriend, and Fay (who learns that one of her late husbands is being transferred to the same cemetery at which another one of her husbands is buried) asks Joe to keep it from happening. And Roy keeps on playing a radio commercial for his service on tape and Lowell is tinkering with a motorcycle that drives Joe mad. And when a reporter from the newspaper of Joe's alma mater comes to interview him, and brings up the fact that Joe didn't do the things he set out to do. Joe's about to snap.
