Slugs in the Walk-in is the third episode of Health Inspectors season 1. The episode takes place in a family-operated restaurant with a good reputation, named Mario's. The restaurant has a walk-in refrigerator where they store their perishable goods, such as meats, vegetables, and fruits. However, the health inspector has received a complaint that there are pests inside the walk-in, and as a result, the inspector team has arrived to investigate.

The team of inspectors arrives at the restaurant, and they start examining the entire area. They check the kitchen, the cooking area, the dining area, and then they head towards the walk-in. As they approach the walk-in, they can hear weird noises coming from inside. They open the door and immediately notice that there are plenty of slugs all over the place. The team notices the inventory stored inside that has maggots on it. The meat products have become ruined, and it becomes apparent the walk-in hasn't been cleaned for weeks.

The inspectors find it appalling that the restaurant staff didn't notice the infestation. They start to investigate the possible causes of the infestation and start to check the outside of the restaurant. They find that there was a small hole in the wall where slugs could have entered the premises. The health inspectors sit down with the restaurant owners, Mario and his wife Maria, and explain to them the severity of the problem and the health hazards that may occur if they leave the infestation unresolved.

Mario and Maria are stunned, and they apologize to the inspectors and their customers. They explain that they have been so busy with other aspects of the business that they just didn't have the time or resources to maintain the kitchen and walk-in properly. The health inspectors understand their situation and suggest that they start by exterminating the slugs and cleaning the walk-in. They also advise them to contact a pest control service that would help eradicate the pests and prevent them from becoming a problem in the future.

The restaurant owners take the advice of the health inspectors to heart and immediately start contacting pest control. The health inspectors start training the staff on how to keep the kitchen and walk-in clean and healthy, and how to keep an eye out for pests. They also teach Mario and Maria the importance of having a management plan to maintain the health and hygiene of the restaurant. The inspectors show them how to conduct daily, weekly, and monthly inspections to keep the restaurant running at the highest level of hygiene.

The episode ends with the restaurant owners thanking the health inspectors for their help. The inspectors are happy that they have managed to create a safe environment for the customers and employees of Mario's restaurant. The show delivers valuable lessons on the importance of maintaining a clean and healthy environment in a restaurant. It also highlights how easily pests can infiltrate even a well-respected establishment, and how small mistakes can lead to disastrous consequences. Overall, the episode is an informative, educational, and entertaining watch for all those who care about food hygiene and safety.
