At the end of the sixth season, Frank was assumed into Second Banana Heaven by the angel the White, an event that, surprisingly, deeply saddened Forrester, reacting as though he had lost his best friend, even lamenting Frank's loss with the song ""Who Will I Kill?"" In the seventh season, Pearl Forrester (Mary Jo Pehl) joined her son Clayton to help him out. When Trace Beaulieu left the series, she took over as the head mad, and continued sending bad movies to hapless Mike Nelson (played by Michael J. Nelson, who had replaced Joel halfway through the 5th season) and the 'bots until the original series end in 1999.
