Balloon is the third episode of Season 1 of Beavis and Butt-Head. It is the 5th overall episode.
Plot[]
Beavis and Butt-Head see a TV program about the choking hazard posed to dolphins by balloons, so they buy some balloons and head to the aquarium to try it for themselves. Beavis however is suddenly and inexplicably lifted up into the air by the balloons. Butt-Head tries to shoot out a balloon with a slingshot to get him down but misses, hitting Beavis's groin instead, causing him to let go of the balloons and drop into the aquarium pool just in time for the hammerhead shark portion of the show to begin. He pees into the water, causing the sharks to be evacuated to protect them from the pollution.
