Larry gets Fitz thrown into jail in an ill-thought-out attempt to repair his relationship with Ken. But once he’s locked up, Fitz discovers he isn’t the top dog he thought he’d be. Ken is. In fact, there’s only one thing standing between Fitz and survival – control of the prison’s supply of sugary cereal. Lucky for Fitz, Josh (who’s gotten himself arrested to keep from killing the Ruptals) has a line on a fresh supply. Meanwhile, Meghan tries to blackmail a labouring Ali into giving her free legal advice.
