Movie[]
When their parents are out of town for the weekend, Chet is called in to watch Wyatt, much to his and Gary's dismay. When Wyatt arrives late, after going to a bar with Gary and Lisa, Chet threatens to tell their parents about it. However, Wyatt offers Chet a bribe to not tell them, which he accepts.
When Chet returns home the morning after the party and sees the house is a mess, he wakes Wyatt, Gary and their new girlfriends up with a gun. He scolds and abuses them in the kitchen, until Lisa appears and stops him.
When Gary and Wyatt leave to take their girlfriends home, Chet flirts with Lisa. However, Lisa, having had enough of Chet’s bullying, turns him into a disgusting talking pile of feces. When he initially insults her, she calmly threatens him, telling him not to make her angry; Chet realizes her point and apologizes to her for what he’d said. When he then asks her to turn him back to normal, saying he hasn’t done anything to her, Lisa replies, “No, but you’ve done plenty to your brother.”
A puzzled Chet wonders what she means, and Lisa replies, “Well, let me see. You’ve nagged him, harassed him, (Chet: “Huh?!”) suppressed him, kept him in fear of you. (Chet: “Me? Come on!”) Extorted money from him.”
Chet tries to protest for his actions, saying, “It’s done out of love.”
Lisa then tells him she ought to give him a “set of elephant balls” and tells him to promise he’ll leave Gary and Wyatt alone, and she will change him back. Chet replies with, “Oh, all right.”
When Wyatt and Gary come in, they see what happened to Chet; Chet initially greets them with “Hi, dudes” before he apologizes for not treating Wyatt nicely, having realized how it felt to be the one on the receiving end of a bully’s attentions.
After Lisa leaves, both the house and Chet are returned to normal, just as his parents come home.
