Episode 49

Cilantro and her asssssssissssstant are discussing her grandfather, Magnus, and how he seemed displeased with her design choices for his castle.  Magnus and the assistant come to an agreement that they don't understand one another.  Cilantro tries to abandon the scene.  Further misunderstanding causes Magnus to try to abandon the scene.  Nobody manages to ditch and even more misunderstanding ensues.  The assistant finally manages to abandon the scene, followed quickly by Magnus and Cilantro.

Carla Calavara has returned to Solomon's River!  After wandering the wilds of Wisconsin for six weeks with amnesia, a squirrel's rogue nut caused at least some of her memory to return and vengeance will be hers!  Wandering into Carla's musings are Jervis the Janitor and Mousy Librarian.  Jervis has been "updating" Mousy on her life--saying she was his sex slave.  Carla vows that no one will ever take advantage of those with amnesia again: she will start a support group!  Mousy wants to take revenge against Jervis and tries to choke him to death when she was interrupted by Janice "Peach," Private Detective and Attorney at Law.  Jervis works his passive-aggressive ways and leaves.  Carla, Mousy and Janice all leave to start the support group.

Rajiv risks the wrath of Vishnu when he speaks to Lakshmi, still locked in the coffeehouse basement.  Lakshmi refuses to give Rajiv any more passionate kisses as long as she's locked up.  Rajiv manages to keep Lakshmi trapped while he speaks to Mayor Joe Bob Solomon upstairs.  Rajiv tries to cover for Lakshmi's angry shouts by saying he's working on a ventriloquist act for the Mayor's birthday and competition.  The Mayor has stopped by to let Rajiv know the neighbors have been complaining about strange voices.  Rajiv and Mayor Joe Bob eventually come to a misunderstanding and they are saved by a change of scene.

Angelica, Carla Calavara's former #1 minion, is on the phone and clearly frightened by the idea that Carla is back in town--what if Carla remembers that Angelica lied to her while her memory was gone?  What if Carla remembered that Angelica used her for free laundry folding services?  Carla knocks!  Angelica reluctantly, but obediently, opens the door and is embraced by a happy Carla!  Carla's memory is only coming back slowly and she hasn't yet gotten to the part Angelica played.  Carla reveals her plans for an amnesiac support group and asks about a place to meet.  Angelica helpfully suggests the mines under Solomon's River...
