Plot: Tom gets tickets for the family's all-you-can-eat shrimp cruise but finds out he can't take time off from work. Dennis suggests he work all of his hours straight to finish up his time in advance. As the hours begin to take their toll, Tom gets desperate. Stopping at the Growl N' Go convenience store, Tom discovers energy supplements. As the supplements take hold, Tom tries to keep using them thinking they can help him advance more time but is cut off at the store. Desperate, Tom breaks into the store and steals a supply of the supplements.
Tom awakes to find himself tied to his bed and forced into an intervention. The family decides to put him into rehab but the families all decide to send the guys into rehab with him. As Tom mopes about missing the cruise, his family also tries to stay near him but decide to go anyways. Tom hatches his own plot to escape, but misses the boat. Taking a nearby jet ski, Tom falls off into the ocean. When he awakes, he finds himself held hostage by pirates. They put him to work but when they pass in the vicinity of the cruise ship, threatening the safety of those aboard the ship he has to escape to save his own family. Tom leaps overboard and is reeled in by Tyler fishing as he had gotten tired of the shrimp. As Tom tries to spread the word, no one listens and the pirates board the ship. After extracting a favor from Shubie, Tom tries to save the ship but fails. Seeking shelter with Tyler, he decides to take his energy supplements and defeats the pirates. Still hopped up on energy supplements, Tom jumps off the ship and swims into the sunset, finishing the episode with the shakes and advice about addiction.
