Ep 4. Rabies Scare

Beavis and Butt-Head season 4 episode 4, titled "Rabies Scare," is an animated American TV sitcom that follows the shenanigans of two adolescent troublemakers, Beavis and Butt-Head. In this particular episode, the two mischievous teenagers are spending their day indulging in some of their favorite pastimes: watching TV and eating junk food.

As the episode begins, we see the duo sitting on their couch, glued to the TV screen. They are munching on bags of chips and soda cans, thoroughly enjoying themselves until they see a news story about a rabid bat that was found in their town. Being the naive and gullible teenagers that they are, Beavis and Butt-Head become paranoid and start worrying that they might be infected with rabies.

Their fear intensifies when they spot a bat flying outside their window. The boys immediately believe that it's the same bat from the news, and they start panicking. They try to come up with ways to protect themselves, such as wrapping their heads in duct tape, wearing oven mitts, and spraying themselves with bug spray.

Despite their absurd efforts, the boys are still convinced that they have rabies. They go to their school nurse to seek medical help. When they arrive, the nurse tells them that they are not exhibiting any symptoms of rabies and that they are overreacting. Beavis and Butt-Head are not convinced, and they continue to worry throughout the day.

The rest of the episode shows the boys going through various encounters that they believe are signs of rabies. For instance, they see a man with a limp and assume that he is infected with the disease. They also misinterpret the behavior of a stray dog they come across, thinking that it's trying to attack them because it has rabies.

As the episode progresses, their fears and paranoia about the disease worsen. They even contemplate stealing their gym teacher's truck to drive to the hospital to get vaccinated against the disease. However, they're stopped by the police before they can attempt their misguided plan.

The episode ends with Beavis and Butt-Head visiting a local convenience store. They see a pack of gum that they want to buy, but they're too afraid to ask the cashier for it, fearing that they'll infect her with rabies. In a moment of desperation, they decide to steal the pack of gum, but they're caught by the cashier and are forced to return the pack.

Overall, "Rabies Scare" is a hilarious and absurd episode that highlights the simple-mindedness and immaturity of the two teenagers. Despite their lack of intelligence and common sense, Beavis and Butt-Head manage to make the audience laugh, ensuring that this episode will be a fan-favorite.
