This episode introduces us to Salad Fingers and his love of touching rusty spoons. He explains how touching any form of rust-including spoons, a door bell panel, and a kettle-stimulates him ("The feeling of rust against my salad fingers is almost orgasmic"), and that he holds a particular love of spoons. Salad Fingers walks to the house of a strange young boy to see if he has any rusty spoons; the child screeches two times, at which point Salad Fingers leaves, after asking to caress a rusty kettle that is on a table beside him.
