The Lobster escapes and duels with Hamton using only his claws as Hamton is armed with a fork. He pinches Hamton in the butt and Hamton flies out of his house, and then back into his house. The lobster wraps Hamton in his carpet and attempts to leave, only to have Elmyra Duff barge in. She thinks Hamton is being mean to the lobster and decides to take care of him. After being hugged too much by her, The Lobster decides he'd rather be Hamton's dinner tonight than Elmyra's pet for the rest of his life.
