Harold has been putting off hiring new help for the summer, but when he sees an ad for a mowing service, he calls.
The man working for the service, a hairy, pot-bellied fellow, is shown the overgrown back lawn and is hired.
The lawnmower seemingly deliberately chases and kills a mole, causing Harold to vomit into a flower bed and faint.
When Harold revives, the lawnmower man explains that this new method, introduced by his boss, grants substantial benefits, and that he makes sacrificial victims of customers who cannot appreciate the process.
As they leave, the scent of freshly cut grass hangs strongly in the air.
