Plot

Finn, Jake, and Desert Princess search for a way out of the Bag of Holding. Along the way, they meet up with Ice King, who decides to have a sand-and-ice picnic with Desert Princess. Meanwhile, the Lich continues sucking up places and people in Ooo, including Marceline, who lands on an island inside the bag with Princess Bubblegum. Lumpy Space Princess also gets sucked in and lands on Jake.

Finn and Jake (with Desert Princess, Ice King and Lumpy Space Princess in tow) drill into the ground and find the fabric of the bag at the bottom. They attempt to escape by punching though it, and get absorbed by it. As Marceline and Princess Bubblegum meet up with the others, Lumpy Space Princess declares that she believes Finn and Jake are dead.

Laundromarceline

Plot

Finn and Jake are seen singing while their clothes are being washed. When the clothes are done, they realize that all their clothes have been "reddified" because of Jake's red sock. Suddenly, Finn has an idea to remove the red tint and he and Jake go to Marceline's house to ask her to suck out the color; however, Marceline is offended that they would ask a vampire queen to do their laundry. Scared for their lives, Finn and Jake promise to do chores in exchange. She has them clean fart fairies out of her chimney, sweep her floors, feed her spiders steak, and wash Schwabl. Marceline, holding up her end of the bargain, de-reds their clothing, including Jake's red sock.
