Plot[]
The main thrust of the plot of this episode was the script for Making Spirits Fight (TAH #114), and a full summary may be found on that page.
This story was told within the wraparound setting of K of the Cosmos deciding to use his fun and whimsy to vex his favorite patsies, the beef-brained skinbags of the reality known as the Thrilling Adventure Hour. As the show progressed, K abandoned the hat he was previously using to pick the actors from, and picked whomever fun and whimsy decided as each character appeared, and that actor then played that part until K's whimsy decided otherwise. He also dictated that the actors playing Frank and Sadie would switch roles every new page.
Notes[]
- Clink count: 14
- With Jonathan Dinerstein appearing as the Narrator, this marks the only time a member of the Andy Paley Orchestra has had a speaking role in The Thrilling Adventure Hour.
- When Dinerstein was cast as the narrator, Marc Evan Jackson stepped in to play the Beyond Belief introductory theme on the piano.
- When Felicia Day exited after playing (pirate) Slapert Frowl, she dropped to her knees from fatigue and literally rolled to the back of the stage before getting up to sit in her chair.
