Fred is a janitor at a university. Suddenly and quite inexplicably he seems to be absorbing HUGE amounts of knowledge simply by cleaning up in the classrooms. At first, he begins, out of the blue, to speak and understand French perfectly...though he never learned French. Then, he soon begins spouting math and physics after working in these classrooms! The wife is naturally concerned and no one seems to know why and how this is happening. It later gets worse when he works not in the classrooms but in the library-- where all this knowledge comes pouring inside his poor brain. He's naturally overwhelmed and falls to the floor screaming! Now he's a super-genius at practically everything!

Apart from all the professors sitting around and laughing hysterically (WHY?!?!), this was a good episode....not great but good and worth seeing. A novel plot make it worth your time.
