Synopsis/Details
Lupe, a hotel housekeeper, is being harasses by a lewd co-worker, Ollie. Gris, the senior housekeeper, puts a swift end to the harassment before she and Lupe head up to the floors.
In their first room, they discover a dead body, stabbed to death with a pen. While Lupe is sickened by the sight, Lupe simply reports the death. Lupe's seen too many dead bodies in her line of work to be shaken. She directs Lupe to throw up in the bathroom.
While in the bathroom, Lupe notices a penis drawn on the mirror in permanent marker, accompanied with the phrase "I Heart Fat Hogs." She tells Gris, who is furious, because permanent marker is hard to clean. She decides to find out who drew the penis.
She goes to the front desk and finds out who visited the dead man's room. She narrows it down to three guests: Tim Horne, Rylee Lind, and Cole Von. Gris and Lupe start with Tim Horne.
When they question Tim Horne, a urologist. They find out that he was being blackmailed by the dead man who'd found out about his compulsion for doing cocaine and taking pictures of his patients' penises. Gris asks if that means he "hearts fat hogs." When Horne finds out that the ladies aren't there about the murder, he kicks them out.
Next, they go see Cole Von. On the way, they see Ollie, who teases them. He says that everybody is talking about the permanent marker penis.
They visit the last room: Cole Von. Cole was also being blackmailed, but not for anything sexual. The dead man threatened to reveal his secret identity: world-famous street artist Banksy. Gris asks if he ever dabbled in permanent marker. Or penises. Once again, the women are ejected from the room.
They head to Rylee Lind's room.
Rylee reveals that the dead man blackmailed her as well. He threatened to tell her very religious parents that she was a porn star. When Gris realizes that Rylee deals with penises for a living, she accuses her of drawing the penis. Once again, Gris and Lupe are kicked out of the room and reports them to their boss.
Gris and Lupe find themselves in the office of their manager, Carl. He understands their frustration with having to clean permanent marker, but he tells them that they can't harass guests.
Lupe ponders the events. She asks Carl to summon everyone to the dead man's room along with the police. Carl does just that.
The dead man's room becomes the parlor scene: Tim Horne, Cole Von, and Rylee Lind arrive along with the police and Carl. Lupe walks the people through the events leading up to the drawing. The police are confused. They thought she was talking about the murder. Lupe tells them that Tim Horne was the killer because of an inconsistency in his story.
Just then, Ollie arrives. Lupe points out that Ollie, angry at Gris for constantly stopping his gross flirtation, drew on the mirror. Carl makes Ollie clean up the penis, which he complains about.
