Episode 173

Princess Lakshmi and Rajiv are feeling a little ill after eating the Vishnu-themed McDonald's they found on her family's private mountaintop shrine.  An old scroll is delivered from the kitchen: it is in Quacky's webbed foot writing!  She translates, "This McDonald's was set up by your father as a front to hide..."  They debate whether the duck had bad grammar and left off a period, or if the rest of the note is missing.  Considering they are on a mountain top, they figure there would be plenty of space to hide...something...underneath the restaurant.  They will search.

Silent but Deadly, the man hired to find Nurse's sister and kill the fugitive Mayor, prepares himself.  He prints something off the internet and loads up with weapons (knife and taser) and several items that make silly noises, including a "Boing!  Hi there!"  Silent but Deadly's grandmother asks him to pick up chips and dip.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is interrogating Angelica about Big Momma's location and plans.  They rough her up, but seem to be getting nowhere, even when they torture her with kale.  They can put her into solitary for up to 24 hours.  Only when faced with no internet access does she seem like she could break.
  • Will Princess Lakshmi and Rajiv find a hidden space under the McDonalds?  If so, what will they find there?
  • Can Silent but Deadly find Nurse's sister?  Can he kill the Mayor?  Will he remember the chips and dip?
  • Will Angelica give up information on Big Momma, or can she hold out the whole 24 hours?  What might Big Momma be doing right now that might help Angelica?
Find out the answers to these questions and more as we make it all up in, Solomon's River!

Episode 172

Rajiv and Princess Lakshmi walk carefully in the dark somewhere near the family's private mountaintop shrine to Vishnu.  Crunching steps...a flash of light...someone is there...it has been turned into a McDonald's!  The shrine still exists, and they have Hindu-themed the menu.  They order the six-arm McVishnu meal with a curry shake to eat by the shrine's statue, hoping it will give them a vision.

Meanwhile, at the Fancy Tea Room for the Rich Elderly, Marjorie Dawson sips tea with Norma, an even older lady.  Marjorie brags about her blue collar "encounter" with Smitty the Plumber.  Norma is intrigued, and wants to experience Marjorie's new glow.  She suggests Marjorie bring Smitty to one of their lady "events".  Before Marjorie can give more details about Smitty's prowess, a man informs them that the Tea Room's plumbing is backing up and they should evacuate.  The ladies, however, will wait for the plumbers.

Angelica briefs Big Momma on the plumbing project progress.  Smitty has dug all the tunnels which reach every toilet in Solomon's River, ready for Big Momma's explosives!  Big Momma says that even the plumber must be blown up.  Suddenly, the police knock on the door!  Angelica answers while Big Momma works some secret magic.  They have questions for Big Momma, but no warrant.  Suspicious of Angelica's immigration status, the police take her away.

Down by the docks, the Nurse and the Secretary are browsing for cut-throats and scoundrels to help with killing the Mayor and finding the Nurse's sister, in either order.  Nurse has enough mad money, but will only pay after both deeds are done.  A man, Silent but Deadly, agrees to the job.
  • Will eating onion rings by a statue of Vishnu help Princess Lakshmi find her father?
  • What kind of "events" to the rich elderly women of Solomon's River hold, and will Smitty attend, or will he be blown up instead?
  • Are the sewer problems related to the new tunnels, and will Big Momma actually blow them all up?
  • What will happen to Angelica now that she's in the hands of ICE: Immigration and Customs Enforcement?
  • Will Silent but Deadly be able to kill the on-the-run Mayor AND find Nurse's on-the-run sister?
