"Good lord," you're no doubt thinking, "how is it that, more than two weeks after Ian ended his war against Sunny the parrot by pathetically surrendering, this plot is still happening?" Well, it's to set up a long-term plot point: if Ian refused to love the bird Toby acquired a few weeks earlier just because it shat in his shoes, could she ever trust him again? Somehow, after so many years of marriage, Toby has finally noticed that her husband is an asshole, and sure, maybe it's over something that he's actually right about, but he's on thin ice going forward (until Toby remembers she has neither a job nor any marketable skills).
