Married... With Children season 11 episode 13, titled T*R*A*S*H, follows the Bundy family as they struggle with the aftermath of a garbage strike in their neighborhood. As their garbage piles up outside, the family makes creative attempts to dispose of their trash, from burying it in the backyard to storing it in the garage. Meanwhile, Al and Peg try to make some extra money by salvaging and selling items that their neighbors have thrown away.
As the garbage strike drags on, tensions rise between the Bundys and their neighbors, who accuse them of not doing their fair share to clean up the neighborhood. The situation escalates when the garbage truck finally arrives, only to dump its contents all over the Bundy's driveway. In the chaos that follows, the family decides to take matters into their own hands and launch a protest against the local government.
Throughout the episode, the characters grapple with what it means to live in a society where basic services like garbage collection can break down. They also confront their own prejudices and insecurities as they interact with their diverse group of neighbors. Ultimately, the episode is a commentary on the importance of community and the ways in which individuals can come together to solve problems that affect everyone.
