Arlene's new personal assistant, Bernice Hipple, announces that if the missing $1000 is not returned by the end of the day, all of the help will be fired.

Dwayne misses work because mysophobe Arlene doesn't want a sick trainer near her. The help realize that the new trainer is a threat to Dwayne's job--and is more repulsive than Dwayne--so Maria starts a campaign to save Dwayne's job.

The help's love of Maggie's "Maggie Chicken" leads to getting the Ridgeways to invest in a start-up venture. All goes well until Maggie refuses to include her secret ingredient in the recipe.
