Present is the sixth episode featured in the Salad Fingers series.
Plot
Salad Fingers is walking around his house. He sees Hubert Cumberdale on top of a cupboard, and instructs the finger puppet to come down at once. Hubert turns into a black, viscous fluid and oozes down the cupboard. A silhouette is then seen walking through the house and Salad Fingers remarks that he thought Jeremy was out "fighting the Great War". Another perspective shot shows Jeremy Fisher, now life-sized and with arms, handing Salad Fingers a toy horse. Salad Fingers is pleased with the present and remarks on the pleasuring texture of the toy. He then eats the Jeremy Fisher finger puppet (asking where he went and disregarding it immediately after) and plays with the toy horse, while making "neigh" sounds.
Salad Fingers walks outside with his toy and goes to an abandoned toilet, which he starts having a conversation with. Suddenly, the mood changes as an eerie theme is heard; he grows concerned and begins defending himself, saying "You've got the wrong bloke, squire." He then flushes the toilet to "wash those bad thoughts away".
Upon arriving home, Salad Fingers gasps and sees himself sitting inside. The socond Salad Fingers appears to be hallucinating, seeing the "outside" Salad Fingers as a life-size Jeremy Fisher. The "inside" Salad Fingers speaks in a less impressed tone of voice and also has a rougher text showing what he's saying. The conversation starts off just like the earlier one with Jeremy Fisher, but goes on to include accusations that Jeremy Fisher has been "tailgating his daughter with aspirations of deflowering her rose". This appears to be the other "side" of the conversation Salad Fingers had with the toilet.
The inside Salad Fingers is now seen with the Jeremy Fisher finger puppet. Salad Fingers remarks that he never did "sample the delights of your flavor", and begins putting the finger puppet in his mouth, but the scene quickly changes to a bloody scene of the "inside" Salad Fingers feasting on the "outside" Salad Fingers' brain, suggesting that Salad Fingers is actually experiencing the personalities he invents (Multiple Personality Disorder). The episode ends with a wide panning shot of the toilet outside Salad Fingers' house, indicating a sinister connection.

- This episode sees Salad Fingers with a slight redesign with black trousers and brown shoes, rather than the blue trousers and black shoes he originally wore.
