I don't remember that one, but last summer when we had a heat wave I remembered the one where people were in a room suffereing from heat nd comcplaining and trying to cool off and I think the weather actually was freezing. I don't remember that one too clearly--maybe I have it in reverse. I do remember the one with the hairy beast on the airplace wing, though. They used that episode when they made the movie, though with a different actor, of course.
