Episode 171

Despite it getting dark, Princess Lakshmi and Rajiv head to her family's ancient private cable car to go up their private mountain and visit their private shrine to Vishnu, which is where Quacky the elderly duck indicated her father disappeared.

Back in the Solomon's River General Hospital, the wounded and uncommunicative Mayor is visited by his secretary who asks if he knows who shot him because she is worried that she's under suspicion.  Nurse enters and shoos her out to give him a sponge bath.  As soon as the secretary leaves, Nurse reveals her true motive: it was her sister the Mayor had held captive and who, while witnessing the Mayor's Mexican standoff with Lieutenant Bustybottoms, shot them both to escape.  Nurse says she knows it was him, and that she's going to prove it!  Unseen, the secretary, having stopped to tie her shoe, has overheard...

Miss Marjorie Dawson, basking in the afterglow of her relations with Smitty, calls for Jeeves to help her redress.  Smitty, already having left in her limo, apparently was one of her most satisfying conquests.  Male voices drift in from the bathroom and Jeeves goes to investigate while Miss Dawson has her post-coital cigarette.  The voices are coming from the toilet--it is Jacobson and Frankie, who have been exploring the tunnels under Solomon's River after following Smitty's plumbing dig.  Jeeves flushes.  Miss Dawson suggests flushing twice, and the men swirl away.

A few minutes later, Jacobson and Frankie find themselves outside where they lament their disgusting state and notice they are in the shadow of Miss Marjorie Dawson's mansion.  They wonder what Smitty is up to, digging tunnels under Solomon's River that lead up to the toilets in every house in town.  They speculate he's gone over to the Dark Side.

Meanwhile, back in the hospital, the Mayor's secretary stops Nurse in the hallway to explain about her accusation of woman-napping.  The Nurse says the secretary can only make up for not noticing the abuse going on right in the Mayor's office if she helps find her sister, who hasn't yet been seen.  The secretary, still bitter over being turned down multiple times for raises, agrees to help.  Nurse and the secretary vow to find a way to kill the Mayor.  Unseen, the Mayor has snuck away.
  • What will Princess Lakshmi and Rajiv find on the mountain, if they can even make it up there...
  • Will Nurse and the secretary manage to kill the woman-molesting Mayor?
  • What has become of Nurse's sister?
  • What is Smitty up to, linking the tunnels to every toilet in town?
  • Was the condom Jacobson and Frankie found in Miss Marjorie Dawson's toilet the one she used with Smitty, or with one of the other many men she ensnares?

Episode 170

Frankie and Jacobson discuss whether Marjorie Dawson is real (yes) and her level of hotness (high, especially for an old lady) before reveling in the pipe fellow plumber Smitty has been laying under Solomon's River.  They wonder if it meets up with the caves, which Jacobson insists are haunted.  They wander.

Smitty, using one of the bathrooms at Miss Marjorie Dawson's mansion, is told by butler Jeeves she requires his presence.  She invites him to her bed.  He sits.  She invites him to touch her thighs.  He says the Shake Weight must be working.  She demands he "Take [her] now!"  Meanwhile, in India...

Rajiv and Princess Lakshmi hose off the aged and incontinent Quacky before asking him to translate the scroll he wrote and left with the genie that tells where her father is.  Princess Lakshmi has difficulty translating Duck, but finally understands, and is confused because Quacky was invoking the name of Vishnu:  "On top of a mountain (quack), at the alter to Vishnu (quack), your father disappeared in a ball of light (quack-quack)."  Rajiv is always suspicious of Quacky, but now Princess Lakshmi also doubts this crazy explanation.  Despite their questions, they go.

Detective Smegly returns to the Mayor's office where the Mayor and Detective Bustybottoms were recently shot, Bustybottoms' body having disappeared.  Detective Smegly tells the suspicious secretary that they need to interview the Mayor because the recovered gun is registered to him (*dramatic music*).  The secretary promises to give the Mayor the message, and looks extra suspicious.

Meanwhile, at Big Momma's lair, Angelica has some strange news: their poison candy idea was stolen before they could enact their plan!  Big Momma is pleased to has gotten all the blame without the work, but Angelica worries about her being arrested.  All they have is an empty factory, so Big Momma suggests blowing it up to throw them off their trail.  Angelica says she will also put out a few additional conspiracy theories about Big Momma to throw them off further (like making them believe she is related to Dr. Phil).

The Mayor's secretary visits him in Solomon's River General Hospital.  He is weak, and the news about the gun is startling.  She insists they will need a plan.
  • Where will Smitty's pipes lead Frankie and Jacobson?
  • Will Smitty actually touch Marjorie Dawson?
  • Can Quacky's recollection of Princess Lakshmi's father being taken up by Vishnu be true?
  • What is the Mayor's secretary trying to cover up, and can Detective Smegly uncover it?
  • Will Big Momma be taken down by someone else enacting her own un-acted plan?

Episode 169

Tripp announces to his mother, Angelica, that his zombie-themed restaurant hasn't been working since the zombie staff all unionized.  Angelica says to just unchain them and let them go, but Tripp has the idea to try an herbal remedy--he will give them some of his "good stuff".  The zombie easily uses the bong, with the first hit mellowing him out and allowing him to talk!  Tripp says he has a plan.

Meanwhile, Rajiv and Princess Lakshmi's use the key and jewel to open her father's trunk which hums, clicks, and pops out her father's genie, "Uncle Genie"!  The genie is unsure of Rajiv, but has instructions to tell Lakshmi where her father is.  Unfortunately, the genie doesn't know because he was distracted by garlic, had a magic genie bag over his head, and was hit with a magic genie wrench, all of which were gotten from the Evil Genie.  Good news: he can give them a scroll with her father's location.  Bad news: Quacky wrote it.  Princess Lakshmi takes a bag of duck treats and the gem, and gives Rajiv the key so Uncle Genie must be nice to him.  They leave to find Quacky.

Poison candy has already gotten into the market, and a family's children have died.  They buy into a conspiracy theory that Big Momma is the secret daughter of Mr. Hershey and blame her for the deaths (though Big Momma's plans haven't even begun being executed yet).  The wife gets so frustrated with her husband that she feeds him some candy.  He dies.


Miss Marjorie Dawson passes the day with Smitty, and asks to hear about his adventures since they were last together.  He said he had a job he had to leave because he "got misplaced".  He reveals he had to "lay pipe" for Big Momma, piquing Marjorie's jealousy.  He also reveals that he didn't finish the job because he instead heeded Marjorie's call.  She says she didn't call him, but rather that he was simply found, wandering around her garden.  But what happened?

**doo-di-li-do, doo-di-li-do, doo-di-li-do**  (flashback to what happened)

Smitty is digging to lay pipe underground for Big Momma, when his fellow Union workers from Latham's Department Store (Frankie and Jacobson with the lame leg) finally track him down.  They were so worried, but they become miffed because Union members can't just leave and get another job!  Smitty could be in deep trouble, unless he "compensates" his fellow Union members, so they might overlook the transgression.  They suggest an introduction to elderly sexpot Miss Marjorie Dawson!  When he refuses to bring them immediately, Frankie and Jacobson hit him with stun guns, spin him in a circle, and give him a disorienting shove.

**doo-di-li-do, doo-di-li-do, doo-di-li-do**  (flash-forward back to the conversation in Marjorie's bedroom)

Marjorie becomes very excited by the prospect of all these muscular workers fighting over her.  Smitty seems less than thrilled.  Jeeves brings lunch and a change of Depends.
  • What is Tripp's zombie/pot-related plan, and will it work any better than his previous schemes?
  • Can Princess Lakshmi and Rajiv get Quacky to translate the scroll with her father's location?
  • Who is this "evil genie", and who is using his services?
  • How did the poison candy get out so fast, if Big Momma hasn't even set up her factory yet?
  • What will the Union do to Smitty if he doesn't silence the members with "favors" from Marjorie?
  • Will Smitty get free of her, and does he even want to?

Meanwhile, at Princess Lakshmi's familial mansion in India, Rajiv follows a trail of duck food and finds Quacky eating and pooping, which leads to the lucky discovery of the gem they need!  He finds Lakshmi in the third kitchen, just having finished up fruitless cavity searches of all palace employees.  They leave to try the jewel and key combo on her father's trunk.

Angelica has bad news for Big Momma: she cannot find Smitty the Plumber.  It's a problem because Big Momma wants a plumber, though it's a solution for Angelica who would otherwise have to kill him.  The Uber Minion calls to check on the status of Smitty, and Angelica hedges that "he's gone".  Uber Minion orders her to meet him later.  Angelica suggests to Big Momma that she try implementing a plan that's not so evil, to stop making so many enemies.  Big Momma will design "Big Momma Candy", which seems nice, until she says that the candy will be poison so they can have Solomon's River all to themselves.  "Especially for the little children on Halloween!" says Big Momma.  Instead of Sugar Daddies, they'll make "Little Poppas", Snickers will be "Grunts", and 3 Musketeers will be "Diabolical Twins", and all...will...DIE!

Meanwhile, deep below Solomon's River, exiled monks hum in ethereal harmony.  Brother Offenshitz is among them, and he expresses a worry for the missing Chiliwang.  The exiled monks plot taking over the Brotherhood of Monks by taking over the cavern, and Offenshitz says he will become a new High Priest.  The brothers hum as Offenshitz says, "Dees isa my empire!"

CEO Mr. Sampson returns to his office eating a sandwich to find two of his employees, Office Manager Gladys and Jerome.  The British-accented employees were "just looking over the paperwork" and had "no other reason" to be there.  The CEO is thinking of having another sandwich, which presents the perfect opportunity for the plotting employees: poison!  Jerome sprinkles in rat poison and Mr. Sampson promptly digs in.  They watch in horror as the oblivious CEO throws up, negating the poison.  Gladys and Jerome leave, planning to try again soon.

Rajiv puts his foot down about dancing in Princess Lakshmi's family's Bollywood-obsessed household.  She suggests that his princely persona be "too royal" even to dance, which he can do.  Quacky, the extremely aged duck, leads the princess to her mother, who has been training him to dance, too.  Mother seems even more dance-obsessed and only casually worried that Poppa had been impersonated in America and now is missing.  Mother wisely suggests searching for her father in a montage, which, unfortunately, turns up nothing.

Meanwhile, in Solomon's River Police Headquarters, an officer reports to Lieutenant Bustybottoms that he is frustrated with the calls from the 7-11 because "the guy there is a jerk."  The officer also reports Facebook activity calling for Bustybottoms to be fired (okay), run out of town (sounds good), and have forcible butt-sex (sure) with Burt Convy's corpse (noooo!) and it's the MAYOR who is behind the messages!  Bustybottoms goes to confront the Mayor.

Episode 164

Princess Lakshmi and Rajiv, reunited after a brief kidnapping and imposter-ing by Rojav, are now back on track to investigate what happened to her father, who had also been imposter-ed back in the US.  On her parents' estate in India, she urges Rajiv to look like a prince as there are cameras everywhere, and she warns him that at any moment, her parents' staff might jump into a musical number and that Rajiv would have to be the lead.  She tries to teach him some moves, and his insecurity over not being part of "the elite" comes out.  Suddenly, Princess Lakshmi's childhood pet, a duck named Quacky, waddles by.  Amazed that a possibly 35-year-old duck is still alive, she pets him, and Quacky pecks at Rajiv, before waddling away.  They continue into the palace.

Office Manager Gladys warns her lover Jerome that his plot has been found out by her boss, Mr. Sampson.  As she shows Jerome the incriminating documents, Mr. Sampson enters, indicating that he hasn't read the papers yet and asks Gladys to summarize them.  Mr. Sampson leaves, and they agree that the only way to get controlling interest in the business is to kill him.  Jerome's words seem to indicate that he might not be completely willing to share the controlling interest with Gladys, though she agrees to his plan.

Angelica finds Big Momma taking a bath in her newly installed walk-in tub.  They reminisce about the Amish boy who briefly showed up to build a barn and whose babies Big Momma may or may not have sacrificed to get more power.  Big Momma says the barn burned and the Amish guy has not been found.  Angelica asks if she has any new orders, and then, casually, asks about Smitty the plumber.  Angelica's cell phone rings, and it is the Uber Minion, asking about that very plumber!  She covers, and Uber Minion gives her instructions to meet him the next day, in the park, under the big tree.  Big Momma says she would like to see the plumber herself, as the "Mister Bubble" bubbles aren't very bubbly.  Angelica offers to find Smitty, who will be dying to come and help!

Uber Minion secretly meets with Angelica (as his Sub-Minion) to get the scoop on Big Momma's next move, and Angelica reveals she has a plumber to pipe Lake Superior into Solomon's River, since the contractors and white supremacists didn't work out.  Uber Minion's plan: to get Lake Superior first!  Step one: kill the plumber.  He gives Angelica a shotgun.  Sparky, the Uber Minion's inbred Hound of Hell, irritates Angelica until she leaves.  Spraky, who is actually robotic, is also a little glitchy, or, perhaps, has a low battery.

Meanwhile, in India, Princess Lakshmi has searched the entire airport for Rajiv who had been hidden in a locker by his evil twin, Rojav.  She finally hears his muffled calling from a locker whose key, apparently, is locked inside.  Determining he needs to be cut free, she cleverly calls in a bomb threat from a pay phone, indicating that a suspicious white person had been seen hear the lockers.  The New Delhi airport police bring in their bomb-sniffing dingo, crack open the locker, release Rajiv who really needs to pee, and search him for a bomb.  Rajiv runs to the restroom and the airport police don't bother searching any further.

Rajiv and Lakshmi are finally reunited!  She tests him to be sure it is really him, and it is!  She reveals that he had been conked on the head by Rojav, interfering in their lives once again.

McShane is at his party, thrown by Tommy and Sally.  He is a good sport about the party, but is slightly taken aback when Tommy and Sally ask him to be the father of their child.  Sally holds McShane's hand, and believes that's all it takes.  Tommy and Sally await their new baby.

An elderly woman, Marjorie Dawson, has her butler prepare tea and crumpets in advance of her seduction of Smitty.  She says Smitty has a power she has not seen in twenty years and it's one she "wants to take advantage of".  The woman's daughter, Charlene, is taken away "for a snack".  Smitty rings the bell and is mildly baffled at the woman's energy.

Meanwhile, back at Latham's, Smitty's fellow janitorial workers, Frankie and Jacobson, need Smitty to help organize the Union, since the store wants to unfairly fire Smitty.  Frankie has a photogenic memory and knows the address of the Red Hat Lady that was so taken by Santa Smitty.  Outside Latham's, a news crew led by Barbie the Reporter interviews picketers, who are from the SRCC (Solomon's River Community College) and are protesting the "White Sale", believing it to be racist--not because of the color, but because of workers in Thailand.  The cameraman says they can use the footage for a "dumb sorority girl" story.

In the bedroom of Marjorie, the Red Hat Lady, Smitty is uncomfortably invited to make himself comfortable.  She knows he's going to be fired and she makes him an offer: do the plumbing.  Her employer uses the pipes for communication and needs them fixed.  Outside the window, Frankie has climbed up and sees his friend laying on a bed and getting a pile of money from an old woman.  In shock, he falls and lands on Jacobson, re-breaking his elevator-injured leg.  Frankie doesn't get to hear the Red Hat Lady call her employer...Big Momma!  Marjorie tells Angelica that she was asked to find a plumber for Big Momma, probably to use for draining Lake Superior into Solomon's River.  Angelica asks Marjorie to bring Smitty to a Tom Hootons coffee shop.

Later, at the Tom Hootons, Angelica meets Marjorie and gives her payment.  Mr. Schmidt Smitty is led away by Angelica, to lay some big pipe.

Episode 161

Latham's Department Store manager Joan Weatherly reports to her boss that the janitorial selection to play Santa Claus resulted in their lowest December sales ever, and she suggests a White Sale to boost profits in January.  Instead, the boss wants the employee fired and is willing to run a salesperson contest so that one with the most sales gets to do the firing.  Manager Weatherly says she hasn't seen the janitor, Mr. Smith, since Christmas, but to get along, the manager says the boss' idea is good, and they leave together.  Janitor Frankie, "janiting" unnoticed in the room, hears the plans for his pal Smitty and meets up with Jacobson, recently back from his elevator shaft injury, to spread the news and rile up the Union in support!

Meanwhile, two salespeople are in the Santa room cleaning up the mess left by Smitty.  One salesman, Harold, reveals that Smitty is his father, whom he equally hates and respects.  Harold wants their sales team to sell the most so they are the ones to fire his father.

In a romantic restaurant, a woman waits at a table for two with a rose in a book.  Finally, her blind date Jordan arrives.  The impatient waiter takes their orders and everyone learns she's not only desperate for this date, but she's also picky.  Jordan orders veal, taking his date aback that he would order "baby cow".  The waiter says they're out of veal, but offers lamb.  To her horror, Jordan asks for "the youngest one you've got".  To her even more extreme horror, the waiter brings a selection of live lambs.  She exclaims over the one with the biggest eyes, which becomes Jordan's dinner choice.

Episode 160

Rajiv and Princess Lakshmi arrive in India and realize they have become de-acclimated to the heat and smell.  She reveals that she has never told her parents about non-royal Rajiv as they had selected a prince for her to marry and...he may still be around!  Rajiv offers that he could pretend to be a prince, and she can teach him some princely ways in the back of their taxi.

A manager at Latham's Department Store announces the employee chosen to be this year's Santa Claus: Mr. Smith from Janitorial Services.  His only training: always "Ho" in threes.  Later, in the basement, Smitty is congratulated by his co-workers as the first in their department to be selected!  Jonsie is "on vacation" (drying out) and Jacobson is laid up with an elevator shaft leg injury, which means that they will be very short-staffed when Smitty is being Santa.  Smitty says to just give him a call if there's an emergency.

Rajiv brings Princess Lakshmi to a hotel room and pats the bed suggestively.  Princess Lakshmi is eager to check in with her parents, but Rajiv is especially handsy and they do a "10 minutes later" followed by a "45 minutes later" just for her.  Princess Lakshmi finally says they should go, and Rajiv murmurs ominously, "I am not who you think I am."  Lakshmi squints and cries, "Rojav!"  Rojav, Rajiv's evil twin, laughs and says Rajiv is tied up in a janitor's closet at the airport.  "A couple hours later", they finish and she goes to rescue Rajiv.

The next day at Latham's, a mother brings her son to see Santa.  As the boy is telling Santa what he wants, Smitty's walkie-talkie blares that there is a problem in the fifth floor bathroom.  Mom is coaching her son to ask for Dolce and Gabanna, diamonds, liquor, all the while Smitty's janitorial partner is calling for emergency assistance.  Smitty finally leaves to help and eventually returns, covered in bathroom stink and stain.  The Red Hat Society has shown up to speak to Santa, and he is directed to do whatever they want.  An older woman sits on his lap for 15 minutes, shooing away children just to hit on him.  She introduces herself as Marjorie Dawson and gives Smitty her address: 79 Park Lane, #12, Upper.  She makes him promise to visit her after work.
