Dave Briggs reveals he's 'all out of sorts' because he forgot his Bloody Mary before the show.
The episode begins with Dave Briggs humorously lamenting the absence of his Bloody Mary, which he forgot after a flight from Colorado. Ross Tucker jokes about Dave's mood dependency on the drink. They transition to discussing airplane travel with kids, suggesting iPads and candy as secrets for happy flights. Dave mentions his upcoming ski trip and Ross's trip to Peru, briefly touching on Incan history. The main topic arises when Dave poses a question about married couples on flights: he and his wife took aisle and window seats, hoping the middle would stay empty, but when a stranger took it, neither moved to sit together. Ross praises this strategy initially and then psychoanalyzes Dave's wife, Brandy, arguing her decision shows confidence and disregard for societal norms. Dave shares personal details about their sleeping habits, adding context. He cites research from Business Insider, relayed by Jordan Cone, linking window seat preference to irritability and aisle seats to sociability. Dave explains his own aisle preference due to shoulder width. The discussion shifts to Southwest flights, where Ross admits he strategically invites slender females to sit next to him to avoid larger passengers, calling it smart despite his wife finding it weird. Dave labels this as Ross being 'on the prowl,' and Ross defends it as practical. The episode concludes with a promo for the live show, mentioning upcoming NFL CBA talk.
