Daxter is walking along with his new girlfriend Tess who was magically transformed into an ottsel like Daxter. He was walking along talking to Tess when he tripped over a rock and fell into the nearby pond and realised he couldn't swim so he shouted to Tess to run for help.
When Tess didn't come back for a while he decided the only way to get out was by crawling up a nearby sewer pipe. Daxter was crawling up the pipe and could see light at the end when all of a sudden someone flushed the toilet and Daxter went flying down the drainpipe and got stuck at the end. He could feel the water pressure building up behind him and eventually he flew out of the pipe and landed right beside Tess. Later that night Daxter needed to use the bathroom to go to the toilet and after he had finished he flushed the toilet and fell into the toilet bowl. On the way down the drain he thought women are too much trouble and love stinks (he also couldn't help thinking that this was deja-vu all over again). When he eventually came out the end of the pipe he found Tess and told her what was going over in his mind as he was going down the sewer pipe and then he said I have decided that I have had enough of sewer pipes and women to do me a lifetime and I am dumping you to save myself any more trouble.
Tess told Daxter that she understood how he felt but would he reconsider dumping her as she loved him and was prepared to put up with the smell of the sewer and his wet fur if he would only stay with her. Daxter replied firmly "NO I AM DEFINITELY LEAVING AND THAT IS FINAL!" and stormed out the house slamming the door as he went and left Tess standing speechless.
Later on in the week Tess decided to go and see Daxter to see how he was getting on and whether he had changed his mind. Daxter told her he was going off on a holiday to see Jack in Spargus in the desert because he didn't like Haven city while they were repairing the damage the metal heads done and he wanted to see Jack but mostly to get away from Tess and all the sewers and to get a tan.
When he got to Spargus he went and talked to Jack and Jack said "its not Tess' fault you keep falling into sewers and toilets and I think you two should make up. So when Daxter got back from Spargus he talked to Tess and they decided they would get back together and after a couple of months with no toilet or sewer incidents they got married and decided that there would be no more arguments about it being Tess' fault that Daxter keeps having unfortunate incidents. Daxter still likes some time to himself (who doesn't) and often goes on holiday to visit Jack and thank him for seeing sense about Tess.
