In an animation, Andy, a garbologist with brown hair and a beard, drives a small truck through a garbage dump. The truck's roof has a propeller and a solar panel. A wide broom is on the truck's underside. On the side are a tool panel, a vacuum hose, a garbage bin, recycling bins for food and electronic waste, and a blue bin for paper, cans, and bottles.
[Upbeat music plays, tires screeching]

Andy says, YOU WANNA KNOW A SECRET? SOME OF THE BEST STORIES CAN BE FOUND IN YOUR STINKY, SLIMY, ROTTEN TRASH. DON'T BELIEVE ME? CHECK THIS OUT!

The truck takes off. Smiling garbage gathers.

Title: Garbology.

[Whirring, upbeat music continues]

In a bathroom, Andy brushes his teeth. He sprays air freshener.

[Brushing, spraying]

A voice says, AH, I AM FREE!

[Chiming]

Andy asks, WHO SAID THAT?!

A purple cloud of air freshener cloud narrows their eyes at Andy.

The air freshener says, MOI.

Andy asks, WHAT'S THAT SMELL? AS THE PHILOSOPHER SAID, WHOEVER SMELT IT DEALT IT.

Andy asks, ARE YOU SOME SORT OF FARTING GENIE?

The air freshener says, EXCUSEZ-MOI?! I AM LAVENDER MUSK.

Andy asks, CAN YOU MAKE MY WISHES COME TRUE? FIRST, I WANT UNLIMITED WISHES. SECOND, I WANT A SOLAR-POWERED JET SKI!

The air freshener says, I AM NOT A GENIE, YOU LITTLE MAN! I AM AN AIR FRESHENER.

Andy says, WELL, YOUR SMELL IS MAKING MY EYES WATER. I... I FEEL SICK.

The air freshener says, YOU MAY BE ALLERGIC TO ME. IT CAN HAPPEN.

Andy’s eyes water and pink spots appear on his arm.

Andy says, OH NO, I THINK I'M BREAKING OUT IN HIVES! COULD YOU PLEASE GET BACK IN THE BOTTLE?

The air freshener says, OH, I'M SORRY, MY SPOTTED FELLOW. I DON'T WORK LIKE THAT. AS A MATTER OF FACT, I AM DESIGNED TO FILL A ROOM WITH EVERY MOLECULE OF MY BEING.

The air freshener spreads across the room.

[Whooshing]

Andy asks, WHAT ARE YOU MADE OF?

The air freshener says, NATURAL SCENTS.

A rose and leaves appear beside the air freshener cloud.

[Harp plays, popping]

Andy says, OH, OKAY.

The air freshener says, BUT ALSO ALCOHOL, TAR, COAL, PETROCHEMICALS, AND SYNTHETIC SMELLS.

Around the air freshener, a bottle of alcohol and a wine glass, a bucket of tar, coal, a barrel, and a vial with yellow liquid appear.

[Buzzing]

Any says, BLECK!

The air freshener says, TOO BAD, MON AMI. SCENTS ARE EVERYWHERE: IN PERFUME, HAIRSPRAYS, CANDLES, DETERGENTS, SOAPS, AND MANY OTHER HOUSEHOLD PRODUCTS.

Three tea candles burn, a detergent box chases a soap bar, and a bucket containing bottles, a cloth, and a glove.

[Whooshing, grunting]

Andy says, THAT'S TERRIBLE. AS A MATTER OF FACT, IT STINKS! BUT DID YOU KNOW SCENTED PRODUCTS PRODUCE THE SAME AMOUNT OF CHEMICAL VAPOURS AS CARS?

The air freshener says, NO!

Andy says, OUI. MY FAVOURITE WAY TO GET RID OF STINKY THINGS IS O.T.W.

The air freshener asks, WHAT IS THIS O.T.W.?

Andy says, IT'S NATURAL, AND IT'S FREE. IT IS OPEN THE WINDOW!

Andy opens the bathroom window.

[Scraping, whooshing, air freshener gasping]

The air freshener says, NOOOO!

The air freshener blows through the open window.

Andy says, REMEMBER, KIDS: FRESH AIR IS EVERYWHERE. JUST OPEN THE WINDOW AND ENJOY. OH, AND DON'T FORGET TO REDUCE, REUSE, AND RECYCLE. SMELL YOU LATER.
