Plot: When Tom is diagnosed with high cholesterol, Shubie puts him on a new high-fiber diet, which causes an intestinal backlash. When it begins to affect his work, he goes to see Dr. Fist who gives  him a written note card explaining that he has medical condition which he soon takes advantage of. Tom quickly realizes his gas might score a few points in the Broken Stool's karaoke contest. Shubie is appalled that Tom should resort to such disgusting behavior but they are interrupted by a call that brings news of Sally's death. Tom's old friend Fred from Bikini Bottom arrives with the body and explains that she was accidentally killed in one of SpongeBob's stunts, of which Tom had survived numerous times. Worried for Tyler, they try to break the news gently and find he has already put his mother behind him. Still concerned for Tyler, the family is shocked when it is Tom himself that falls to pieces at the funeral. Shubie is puzzled and angry after everything Tom told her about Sally that he could continue to have such feelings for her. At the Broken Stool, the guys try to cheer him up but it fails and to top it off, Shubie decides to sing with Coach McFall. Tom heads to the cemetery where he ponders why he is so upset and has a flash of inspiration when he drops a cookie. He rushes back to the Stool where he lets Shubie know he was suffering from survivor's guilt after having lasted through so many of SpongeBob's stunts while Sally is killed on the first try. Shubie is first skeptical at first but Tom wins her over and offers to sing their song in the karaoke contest. He tries to sing it without farting but the audience soon convinces him and Shubie to cut loose and they win.
