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?

Episode 168

Marjorie Dawson is using a Shake Weight, given to her by her butler, Jeeves, to boost her calves somehow.  Jeeves reports the gardener reported a man lurking in the garden who claimed to know her.  Jeeves has security bring him up: it's Smitty!  She kisses and fawns over him.  The workers leave, and Marjorie asks Smitty to "demonstrate the Shake Weight".

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!
  • Does Smitty enjoy being with Marjorie?  If not, can he even get away?
  • What will the jewel and key reveal in the trunk that may reveal what happened to Lakshmi's father?
  • Will Uber Minion find out Angelica didn't actually kill Smitty, but just misplaced him?
  • Will Big Momma's plan to kill everyone on Halloween actually work?
