Synopsis
Fizz goes to buy milk, and things sure do happen.

Plot
As Fizzarolli and Asmodeus lie together asleep in bed, Fizz is woken up by an alarm that he proceeds to destroy. He then extends his arms moving all throughout Asmodeus' palace until they reach the kitchen where he fills a cup with some brewed coffee; he then brings the coffee pot back where he sits it on a nearby nightstand. After donning a morning jester cap, Fizz drinks from the pot and then jumps up to the ceiling and wakes up Asmodeus with an airhorn.

As Asmodeus begins to clothe himself, Fizz begins reading off an itinerary of appointments he scheduled for Asmodeus throughout the day including a meeting with Prince Stolas during lunch. After Fizz offers to make breakfast, Asmodues tells Fizz that he's not to cook anything after a prior incident and the two continue flirting as they approach the kitchen.

While Asmodeus cooks, Fizz notices a magazine with pictures of them both in a loving embrace; he quickly discards it in a nearby trash can & throws the can out the window. As they have breakfast, Asmodeus is nervous about Fizzarolli going out on his own to run a few errands; eventually, Fizz is able to convince Asmodeus to let him go, promising to keep a low profile. As they cuddle, one of Asmodeus' assistants comes in with several shipments of items only to be told by both to leave & give them some privacy.

Upon arriving in Greed, Fizzaroli immediately goes and causes several folks to stare at him as he walks his pet dogs down the street while to the store; he absentmindedly comments how it is nice to keep a low profile while knocking over other imps and demons. Just ahead, Blitzo is thrown onto the sidewalk after getting kicked out of a coffee shop; the two notice each other and immediately begin trading insults with the other. After Fizz makes a remark about their time at the circus, Blitzo immediately jumps him and the two begin to fight.

In a nearby building, Crimson is seen interviewing Striker about a job. Striker mentions having captured a royal one week prior, but Crimson derides him for not killing the royal. Striker brushes it aside, maintaining that he has a body count in the hundreds. While Crimson thinks it over, Striker hears a commotion outside & notices both Blitzo and Fizz fighting in the street; hearing that Crimson wants something of value to consider hiring him, Striker lassos the two imps and pulls them to the meeting room. Crimson recognizes both Blitzo and Fizz, hiring Striker on the spot and the latter runs a blade over Fizz's throat.

After a busy morning at his vibrator factory, Asmodeus meets with Stolas. He greets the prince and mentions their prior encounter at Ozzie's, wondering if Stolas is still seeing Blitzo. Stolas brings up his feelings towards the imp as well as a request to get an Asmodean Crystal for Blitzo so he can use it for his business requests. While Asmodeus is sympathetic to Stolas, he refuses the request due to the history between Fizz and Blitzo. Just then, a call comes in from Fizz's phone but when Asmodeus answers it, Crimson is on the other line. He reveals that he is holding Fizzaroli captive and will be sending a lawyer over with his demands in exchange for Fizz's freedom. Asmodeus roars in anger as the recording comes to an end, the last line being Asmodeus has until 3am to sign the contract.

Blitzo & Fizz are tied up and thrown into a shark cage; while Fizz hyperventilates and panics, Blitzo insults him for not keeping a clear head and that Asmodeus will do anything to keep him alive. Incensed, Fizz throws it back at Blitzo regarding his relationship with Stolas; Blitzo brushes it aside and says it is nothing more than a sex thing Stolas is into; when Fizz probes deeper as to why he was with Stolas at Ozzie's, Blitzo sidesteps it and says he was at Ozzie's for different reasons. Eventually, Striker tells them both to shut up and calls them disgraces for having relations with demons outside their caste. Crimson tells Striker to "keep his hands off the merchandise'" and as they walk away, Fizz comments how Striker has bad breath.

In Asmodeus' palace, he sits with Crimson's lawyer to sign the contract; having a pasttime of reading, Stolas offers to look it over and sees that it would give Crimson all of Asmodeus' assets, including his factories and taking Fizz's head as a decoration. The lawyer quickly says that was to get his attention and brings out the actual contract, much to Stolas' joy & Asmodeus' anger.

As Fizz continues to fail in his attempts to escaping, Blitzo offers to help him; upon Fizz agreeing, Blitzo procures a hidden knife in his boot and cuts them both free. Scouting the warehouse layout, Blitzo comes up with a Rube Goldberg style plan that ends up killing most of Crimson's goons and breaks them out of their cage. An angered Crimson orders the surviving goons to capture the two imps, but both Blitzo and Fizz evade them while bringing up their troubled past.

It eventually comes to a point where Fizz brings up how everyone preferred him during their time together in the circus and that caused Blitzo to get jealous and want him gone so he could take the spotlight for himself; this led to a pyrotechnic explosion at Fizz's birthday party that ended up burning down the circus and cost Fizz his arms, legs and horns. Tearfully, Blitzo says that the explosion was indeed his fault and apologizes for what happened but that it was an accident and he actually tried to get help; Blitzo then reveals that he was caught in the explosion as well and implies that the strained relationship with his sister and disappearance of his mother was in part of that. After getting interrupted by another goon, Fizz understandably asks why he never came to Fizz with the truth after 15 years; when both Blitzo and Fizz reveal they were told that the other had no desire to see them, they both realize that misunderstanding was the source of their long-standing feud.
