Summary
The episode opens with a drawing on the fridge, depicting Red Guy, Yellow Guy and Duck Guy sitting at a desk smiling with the calendar showing June 19 on the kitchen wall (the "get creative" letters from the first episode can also be seen on the fridge). We see Duck Guy and Yellow Guy sitting in a kitchen (possibly Roy's, as seen on the label of several items). Red Guy is strangely missing.
The two inspect their surrounding, and Yellow Guy comments that something is different. Duck Guy agrees that something is missing and looks at the painting again, the painting seems normal at first, but upon taking a second look, it changes: Yellow Guy is still sitting and smiling, but Red Guy's standing outside the window, and Duck Guy appears dead. The scene then cuts to a photograph of the three on the wall.
Suddenly, Yellow Guy points to a talking loaf of bread, asking if he is missing. A can of spinach then emerges from a cabinet, and starts asking them if they're hungry. Yellow Guy replies with a simple 'No', making the spinach can sing 'doot' repeatedly while thinking of something else to say. He tells them many people get hungry, before the giant steak appears. The steak tells them hungry comes from their body and their body needs to be healthy, poking Duck Guy with a fork, who tells him to get off him.
The spinach and the giant steak tell them that certain foods will make their teeth turn grey. The steak does a tap-dance routine and tells them to 'get healthy now'. He is interrupted by the phone ringing, and Duck Guy goes to answer it. He finds himself that he is in a dark operating room, with the song continuing on the television. The steak explains how a body's like a house, with all different components in different rooms. He states that 'Mr Bladder's in the basement and gives a small laugh, which confuses Duck Guy. Food comes through the mouth, the chimney, and greets the different organs in the house. The healthy food are nice to organs and are invited to stay for a party, but the unhealthy food are rude and they have to leave through the catflap.
The phone rings again, and Duck Guy answers it. He then finds himself back in the kitchen, with the phone replaced by a sandwich. The spinach can and the steak repeat themselves, saying certain about foods make their gums turn grey. Duck Guy says something's wrong, but the spinach can interrupts, asking how to know which foods are healthy. The steak says that food groups can also be sorted easily by a "health shape": A strange, uneven chart, seemingly a parody of the food pyramid, with different foods arbitrarily labelled and grouped together. He then says eating plain-looking foods keeps the body healthy, and demonstrates by pouring cream down a body model. Duck Guy says he needs to go, but is interrupted by the spinach can asking what a fruit salad is. The steak says the fruit salad's a 'fancy, show-offy food' and that it will clog up the body 'with unnecessary details', and pushes the body model off the table, breaking it, and stomps on it.
The scene cuts back to the kitchen, Duck Guy's grabbed by [[Fridge], that says everything tastes great, but they should wait before they eat certain foods (meanwhile, Red Guy's head can be seen in the microwave behind him and Roy can be seen watching them from the ceiling). Duck Guy says that he has had enough, and knocks over the camera saying 'I don't wanna do this anymore!' (Red Guy can be briefly seen after the camera is knocked over). He wakes up in the dark operating room with a giant can standing next to him, and he continues to watch the TV. The spinach points at a pizza slice on a tray, and says Yellow Guy is better off with white sauce. The steak however says white sauce will make their teeth turn grey. The fridge says to just throw it away, and points to a can of Duck Guy, saying to try something else. The steak points at a pie, saying Yellow Guy will end up sad inside.
The scene cuts back to the operating room, where a giant can starts eating Duck's organs. The song continues on, and the fridge says that everyone has their teeth turned grey and eating yeast makes them normal. The steak, however, says too much yeast will make their teeth turn grey. The spinach can offers Yellow Guy some onion paste, with the steak saying it wasn't onion paste and that he shouldn't eat food from a stranger's plate. The entire band then begins chanting 'stranger's plate' repeatedly. The spaghetti briefly morphs into Red Guy's face, red smoke comes out of the microwave, and the giant can continues eating Duck Guy's organs while red mist (presumably blood) comes out of Duck Guy's intestines. The can leaves to be replaced by another one. The can in the microwave spins around, revealing that it expires on June 19.
Yellow Guy looks deep into his spaghetti while the chant in the background becomes screaming, and sees Duck Guy's screaming head (appearing to show him dead, with X's over his eyes). The camera zooms out, showing a steak on the plate. A ding from the microwave is heard, a giant can is now holding a pie made of Duck Guy, and confetti falls. Yellow Guy is shown obese, having eaten Duck Guy, evidenced by many empty cans featuring Duck Guy's face. The phone rings, and Yellow Guy turns to look at it. The scene cuts to Red Guy walking out of a phone booth holding a suitcase in the credits roll.
Script
In the kitchen.
Yellow Guy: Hmm... something's different.
Duck Guy: Hmm. Something's missing.
Yellow Guy: Is it... this guy?
Bread Loaf: Fish and chips...steak and beef...cha-cha-cha-cha...grapes and eggs...steak, eggs. Mm. (Drops and breaks spoon)(oof)
Spinach Can: Are you hungry? You look to be a bit hungry!
Yellow Guy: No.
Spinach Can: Doot doot doot doot. Lots of people get hungry?
Steak: That's your body! Hungry comes from your body! (Pokes Duck Guy)
Duck Guy: Get off me!
Steak: But your body, it must-a have-ta' be healthy!
Spinach Can: What's that, a tasty snack? You don't wanna go and eat a snack like that!
Steak: Greedy to eat all that! You'll end up with your teeth all grey!
Spinach Can: Doot doot doot doot doot!
Spinach Can and Steak: Doot doot doot doot doot do it healthy!
Yellow Guy: Food is talking...
*Steak starts to do a tapdance routine*
Duck Guy: What...?
Steak: Let's get healthy now!
*The phone rings. Duck Guy picks it up.*
Duck Guy: Hello...?
*On the other side is himself in a dark operating room. The word "hello" echoes. a small echo can be heard saying "You need to know what's right from wrong". He stares at the TV to see the song continue.*
Steak: You see, the body is like a special house! With blood, hair, and or-gans in the different rooms! Oh look, there's Mister Bladder in the basement! Hehe...
Duck Guy: What...?
Steak: Now food comes in through the chimney (mouth), and goes from room to room greeting the different or-gans!
Yellow Guy: Hello!
Steak: Now, the good, healthy food is very nice and polite to the organs, and so is invited to stay, for a party!
Steak and Spinach Can: Yay!!
Steak: But the bad, not healthy foods are very rude, and must leave through the cat flap!
Spinach Can: Rude!
Duck Guy: That doesn't make sense...
Spinach Can: Doot doot doot doot doot!
Spinach Can and Steak: Doot doot doot doot doot do be healthy!
*The phone rings again. Duck Guy picks it up again, but it just cuts back to the kitchen.*
Duck Guy: Hello...?
The phone Duck Guy is holding has now turned into a sandwich.
Spinach Can: What's that, a tasty snack? You don't wanna go and eat a snack like that!
Steak: Greedy to eat all that! You'll end up with your gums all grey!
Duck Guy: Yeah, but... something's wrong...
Spinach Can: Exactly! How do we know which ones are the healthy foods to eat?
Steak: Well, that's easy!
Duck Guy: uhhhh....
Steak: The food groups can easily be sorted using this simple health shape! Choosing normal plain-looking foods like bread, cream, white sauce, and aspic keep the body ticking over just nicely! Isn't that right?
Body Model: *Gargles*
Duck Guy: Eh...I need to go!
Spinach Can: But wait! What's this?
Steak: Fancy, show-offy foods like cooked meats, fruit salad, soil foods and yolk!
Spinach Can: Ugh!
Steak: These foods will clog up the body with unnecessary detail! *pushes body model off table and stomps on it* Oh no, look, it's all broken and on the floor!
Body Model: *Louder gargles*
Fridge: Everything tastes great!
Fridge: But maybe we should wait!
Duck Guy: NO--!
Fridge: Before we put it on the plate!
Duck Guy: ENOUGH--!'
Fridge: Or it could be too late! for your...
Duck Guy: I'M NOT GONNA DO THIS ANYMORE!
*Duck Guy knocks over the camera. Briefly, Roy can be seen staring down from the ceiling, and Red Guy can be seen behind the camera. Duck Guy wakes back up in the hospital, with a large, yellow can in front of him. Yellow Guy is now alone with the Steak, Spinach Can and Fridge.*
Steak Guy: ...a snack.
Yellow Guy: I choose a pizza slice! Bread and cheese and tastes of nice!
Spinach Can: What's that, a pizza slice? But you're better off with plain white sauce!
Steak: What's that? Plain white sauce? Plain white sauce makes your teeth go grey!
Fridge: Does it matter? Just throw it away! Why not try something else on your tray?
*Fridge points to a microwave, with Duck Guy being cooked in a can.*
Steak: Oh, what's that? A lovely pie? But you're gonna end up sad inside!
Spinach Can: Ugh, sad inside? You're gonna make me sick!
*Scene cuts back to the hospital. The song continues on the TV, but it focuses on the large yellow can, which starts eating Duck Guy's gastrointestinal system. Maniacal laughter is heard in the background*
Yellow Guy: I choose ice cream beef-
Steak: Ice cream beef makes your teeth go grey....
Spinach Can: What's that? Your kidney spleens? Your kidney spleens makes your teeth go grey!
Fridge: But everyone has their teeth go grey, just eat yeast and it will go away!
Steak: But how much have you had today? Too much yeast makes your teeth go grey!
*Briefly cuts back to the hospital, where the large can continues to eat Duck Guy's organs.*
Spinach Can: How about some onion paste! Looks like fun, have a taste!
Steak: That wasn't onion paste! You shouldn't eat food from a stranger's plate.........
(The last lines are repeated over and over. They continue screaming "Stranger's plate" as what they are saying becomes more indecipherable)
*While the Steak and Spinach Can shout "A stranger's plate", a few more hospital sequences are shown, the first showing the large can eating a little more. Yellow Guy's spaghetti briefly morphs into Red Guy's face. Red smoke comes out of the microwave, which most likely represents evaporated blood. I The can continues eating Duck Guy's organs while red mist (presumably blood) comes out of Duck Guy's intestines. The can leaves to be replaced by another one. The can in the microwave turns to reveal its expiry date: 19/06. Yellow Guy looks deep into his spaghetti and sees Duck Guy's screaming head. It zooms out to show a steak on Yellow Guy's plate.*
Steak: ...stranger's plate!
*Cuts back to hospital, with the large can holding a pie made of Duck Guy. A ding is heard as confetti falls. It then shows Yellow Guy, now obese, with many empty cans of Duck Guy in front of him, with a little bit in his mouth. The phone rings once more.*
*Scene cuts to outside the room, Red Guy, wearing a trenchcoat and a scarf, is seen walking away from a red telephone booth with a suitcase in hand. The credits roll.*

Calling the Don't Hug Me I'm Scared 5 Phone Number (Read Description)
- There was actually a rumor in which if you were to call one of the numbers in the episode, a DHMIS character would pick up. Some people had reported that they actually got through, and there are a few videos of the number actually working. However, the number only worked the first few days the fifth episode was released. So far, the number has not been reported to work.
- This is the first time the Duck picks up the phone, you can faintly hear the Meat Man saying 'You need to know... What's right from wrong...', a classic way of scolding young children. Linking to this, Roy states in an interview that he was going to send his son to 'Punish Land'.
