A lethal combination of everyday household chemicals (i.e. laundry detergent, pipe cleaner, etc.) causes housewife Lily Tomlin to gradually shrink to bacterial size. Of course being slightly smaller, simple household chores will inevitably become more difficult. The same story as The Incredible Shrinking Man except this one's more humorous but it eventually runs out of steam. A must for Tomlin fans!
