Also, Al gives the Bundy credo as: "When one Bundy is embarrassed, the rest of us feel better about ourselves." We also find out that Al buys clothes at "Bob's Pre-Owned Socks 'n Stuff".

The Bundys win a trip to England, courtesy of the village Lower Uncton, which can rid itself of a centuries-long curse by ridding the world of male Bundys -- and there are just two left. Back in 1653, an ancestor of Al's - Seamus McBundy, insulted a fat, ugly witch who then imposed a curse on the village and all future male Bundys. The Lower Uncton residents must kill the last male Bundys inside their city limits in order to end the curse, while Upper Uncton people must insure they die outside the city so the curse becomes permanent and Lower Uncton stays as their tourist attraction. [Note: story editors Larry Jacobson and Stacie Lipp do a walk-on appearance together; Jacobson says "shoe salesman". Seamus is a Gaelic name, pronounced as "shamus".] Winston .....................
