Plot

[edit]

Ren is confused by Stimpy's claim that he has a friend in his face, a parasite named Choo-Choo Nong-Nong Head.[1] Nooney Bratweiler, Choco-Choco's cousin comes to stay with her.[1] She persuades to him to move onto Ren's face.[1] Ren is notably annoyed by serving as an unwilling host, and tries hard to get rid of the parasite to no avail.[1] The Fire Chief puts out a fire started on Ren's face by the parasite.[1] Ren's face is worn down that it must "torn down" or turned into a condominium tower.[1]
