Background[]

Jefferson invites Al to go with him a memorabilia auction, with the intent to buy an original Barbie doll for Marcy's birthday. Although Al does not want to go at first, Peggy comes home with a concertina, which causes him to change his mind and take off with Jefferson

At the auction house, the auctioneer is first shown ending the auction for Michael Jackson's original nose for $3200. In the seating area Jefferson reveals to Al that he only has $2,000 for Marcy's birthday gift. The auctioneer then presents the 1st issue of Big 'Uns , still in its plastic, causing Al to instantly place a bid for $1,200, making him the winner.

Although Jefferson points out Al doesn't have money and the money he brought with him was the money he took from Marcy in order to buy her a birthday present, he eventually relents and decides to see if there is a chance that he can get a Barbie for $800.

Just then, the Barbiephile, who was sitting behind Al and Jefferson, informs him that he will have difficulty finding a Barbie for that amount. He then proceeds to explain his plan to get the "Woodstock Barbie", describing the fine details of the doll, and his willingness to spend up to $10,000 for it, which creeps out Al.
