Rattle, Rattle WE DON'T GIVE A SHIT ANYMORE THEN! And while it does provide us with a brief reminder of Dashing El Deano's recent clothing-optional run-in with the Amazons, the bulk of this evening's THEN! is devoted to a central plot point from this second-season episode, for reasons which will become readily apparent once we've blundered our collective way through the...

Frenzied Sammy makes to hustle himself to the opposite side of the shop, but alas! Another green-haired Gacy clown has materialized to block Sam's path to safety, and this second Green-Haired Gacy shudder-zips up to push its foul, giggling face into the camera until everything gets obliterated by this evening's...
