A patient in the care of Arkham Asylum recounts to his doctor the tale of how he came to be committed. Believing himself to be a Deep One radio DJ in the cloistered town of Innsmouth, he gets a chance to interview the world-famous Slime Girls (a clear take on real-life girl group the Spice Girls) only to discover that, rather than being Deep Ones like himself, they are in fact humans in disguise.
