Except that the Toxic Spew is the filthiest, grubbiest, and definitely most dysfunctional garbage collector in the known galaxy. And with the most argumentative and chaotic crew.

But they don't bet on running into the most notorious and ruthless pirates around: the Bling Bots from the planet Sy-Boorg! Harvey must try and save the day again - before the Toxic Spew gets disposed of once and for all ...
