I don't agree with how fast he puts the plug back in. I think that is one of the advantages to changing oil yourself as opposed to taking it to a quick change place, you can let it drip longer and get all that dirty oil out. I actually let it drain and then run a new quart of oil through after the dirty oil drains out to push out the last of the dirty oil. I think that gives you the freshest start for your new oil.
Hey, the plug will need to be replaced, but did you try using a pair of vice-grips? Or---you can buy a special socket that are designed to grip stripped heads.
