Moe Green

## About

Maurice "Moe" Green is a game/talk show host, actor, playwright, critic, licensed chiropractor, and later appears as SCTV's Station Manager. His main shows are Dialling For Dollars and Feedback. He also taught a bookkeeping lesson on Sunrise Semester. He has been described as slimy and a penny pinching weasel. He is also insensitive, impatient, and panicky. He is constantly sweating and is often seen dabbing at himself with a handkerchief.

## Kidnapping

In the aptly titled "Kidnapping of Moe Green", Moe gets kidnapped. The Leutonian Liberation Front sends Moe ransom-note styled letters, expressing their dissatisfaction with him. He does not take these seriously, instead opting to tease the Leutonians by saying that he'd up the number of Leutonian employees to 3 by the end of the century.

Later in the episode, Floyd Robertson and Earl Camembert interrupt the program with a news broadcast announcing that Moe Green has been kidnapped. They listen to an excerpt of a message left by Moe.

> "Am I on? \*slap\* ow! Uh, this is Moe Green. After only a few short hours in captivity, I've come to recognise the importance of the Leutonian struggle for treedom- \*multiple slaps\* Excuse me- freedom! Now I am joining the struggle against the imperialist c-capitalist televionist policies of SCTV. But, my new comrades have given me a new name to symbolise my conversion.Instead of Moe Green, I am now called Bruce Finestein. I'm going underground for a while, but I'll be back. Look for me wherever someone is cringing with fear- I'll be there. Wherever someone is blaming other people for his mistakes- I'll be there. Wherever someone is sucking up to those in power- I'll be there. But until then, I hope someone will check to see if I turned off all the gas and lights in my apartment before I left. \*sounds of struggling ensue\*"
>
>

After the recording ends, the two reflect on it and agree that his kidnapping was for the better. Moe does not return after this.
Libby Wolfson

“Taking my own head, screwing it on right, and no man’s gonna tell me that it ain’t.”

## About

Libby Wolfson is the host of You!, a women's advice show she generally hosts alongside best friend, Sue Bopper Simpson. Libby is neurotic and high-strung, often being obsessed with her weight and dietary habits as well as the way her breath smells. She is very garrulous, and for the most part not afraid to speak her mind, even if that means coming off as slightly rude or tactless to others.

Libby is a self proclaimed feminist, believing strongly in the strength of women and communicating this viewpoint through not only her talk show but her various projects as well, which tend to focus solely on that very thing.
Days of the Week

***Days of the Week*** was one of the SCTV Network's programs, a take-off on such soap operas as *Days Of Our Lives.* Its announcer (who was not credited) would begin each episode by intoning, *"Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. These are the **Days of the Week."*** This narration was itself a take-off on **Macdonald Carey's** introduction to *Days Of Our Lives,* which transcribed as, "Like sands through the hourglass...so are the ***Days Of Our Lives."***

## About

*Days of the Week* was a serialized soap opera spoof that ran in Seasons 4 and 5. The first season followed the storyline of the rock star Clay Collins after he learned that he only had one week left to live, as well as the much anticipated return of a housewife’s formerly missing son--and the evil but incompetent criminal Rocco, who posed as the son in an attempt to kill the mother.

Connie Franklin

**Connie Franklin,** one of Andrea Martin's characters, was a singer on *SCTV* noted for her songs's highly depressing lyrics and the morose style in which she would sing them. Martin did her own singing in character, as Catherine O’Hara did in character as Lola Heatherton.

### Influences

Martin intended the character of Franklin to be a take-off on the real-world singer **Connie Francis,** who had originally been named **Concetta Rosemarie Franconero.**

### Behind the scenes

Franklin and Catherine O’Hara's character of singer Lola Heatherton were not shown to be competitors or even to have shared the same stage.

After *SCTV's* cancellation, Martin was not known, as of the middle 2020s, to have had any opportunities to sing in character.
Bill Needle

Bill on his first short lived series

## About

Bill Needle is a host of varying programs on the Second City network, none of which ever last longer than two episodes. He is incredibly hot tempered and very easily engages in heated conflicts with his guests- both of the physical and verbal type- ultimately resulting in the cancellation of the show he is hosting at the time. Despite this however, Bill generally bonds well with Guy, and the two often can be witnessed plotting their next money-making scheme together, no matter how ridiculous it may be.

For reasons unsaid, Bill is married to a dimwitted burlesque dancer Honeypie Traynor, whom he can barely tolerate. In Maudlin’s Eleven, it is shown that he occasionally sings onstage at her club and is surprisingly quite good at it, but this fact is never mentioned again.

## Seasons Appeared In

\*2(?), 3, 4

\**Note: A very similar character named Bob Clark appears in season two. Although not identified as Bill Needle, it is likely that this was an early draft of the character, who would be introduced officially in the following season.*

Bob and Doug McKenzie

Bob and Doug talking to Johnny LaRue in the utility closet

**Robert "Bob" McKenzie** and **Douglas "Doug" McKenzie** were back bacon-munching, beer-guzzling brothers with exaggerated accents, as whom Richard "Rick" Moranis and David "Dave" Thomas (the latter is not to be confused with the restaurateur behind the Wendy's restaurants) were perhaps the best known of all *SCTV's* comedy partnerships.

## About

Bob and Doug McKenzie are easily the most well recognized of all characters in the series. They were created by Dave Thomas to be stereotypes of Canadians and speak in exaggerated accents, ending almost every sentence with “eh” and living on a diet of beer, back bacon, and donuts. They host *Great White North,* a program no longer than two minutes where they discuss various topics.

Bob and Doug were one of the show’s two sibling pairs to get their own movie, the other being The Schmenge Brothers. In the McKenzie Brothers's case, their feature film was *Strange Brew.*

## Trademarks and Character Qualities

* Their accents
* Their toques and jackets
* Their love of beer and back bacon
Earl Camembert

Earl reveals his sloppily written signature

## About

Earl is one of the first characters to be introduced in the series. He is a news anchor and reports alongside Floyd Robertson- who he often agitates- on SCTV News. Earl also has his own, separate program on the network, a show called One On the Town with Earl Camembert where he documents and interviews various people in various places. Earl is highly overzealous and persistent, causing him to give the impression of being pushy and often rude. He is also shown to be socially awkward and generally repelling to women, much to Floyd‘s amusement.

## Trademarks and Character Qualities

* His checkered suits and bowties
* His glasses
* His hair
Angus Crock

Angus Crock on “Sunrise Semester”

## About

Angus Crock is a full-blooded Scotsman who speaks in a heavy accent and is commonly seen wearing a kilt and other native attire. He appears four times on Sunrise Semester, once on Edith Prickley’s dating show, and even once hosts his own cooking show.

Angus is shown to be snarky and short tempered, often very reluctantly participating in the network’s programs and making clear he does not want to be doing so by choice.

## Trademarks and Character Qualities

* His Scottish accent
* His caustic personality
Gerry Todd

## About

Gerry Todd is SCTV’s official resident technician and hosts his own show, The Gerry Todd Show, as well. He is highly enthusiastic about his job, to the point where even an alien possession cannot affect him or what he does. Gerry is energetic and optimistic at all times, always excited to introduce his newest innovations in “vuhdeo” technology.
Lola Heatherton

**Lola Heatherton,** one of Catherine O’Hara's *SCTV* characters, was one of the SCTV Network's featured singers.

## About

Lola Heatherton was a singer and aspiring actress who starred in various programs on the SCTV Network. She was incredibly melodramatic, often specializing in over-the-top stage performances, but she occasionally appeared in game shows and telethons as well.

Lola had a controversial history of sexual partners and substance-abuse scandals, with Sammy Maudlin, Guy Caballero, and Bill Needle having been most aware of that fact. She was revealed to have had relations, at some point, with Guy, Bobby Bittman, Johnny LaRue, both of the McKenzie brothers, Bob *and* Doug, and Count Floyd/Floyd Robertson.

Heatherton and Andrea Martin's character of singer Connie Franklin were not shown to be competitors or even to have shared the same stage.

## Character Trademarks and Qualities

* Her line: “I wanna bear your children!”
* Her dramatic singing style
* Her short white hair

## Behind the scenes

The character's name was a portmanteau of those of variety entertainers **Lola** Falana and Davenie Johanna "Joey" **Heatherton.**

As Andrea Martin did in character as Connie Franklin, Catherine O’Hara did her own singing in character as Lola Heatherton.

After *SCTV's* cancellation, O'Hara appeared in such other productions as the original *Home Alone* and *Home Alone 2: Lost In New York,* both times as the McAllister family matriarch. But as of the middle 2020s, she was not known to have obtained any opportunities to sing in character.
Natalie Cole

## Context

Natalie appears and performs as a guest on The Sammy Maudlin Show. After she sings and promotes “Different Folks”- for which she has evidently recorded the theme song- Sammy welcomes on the next guest, Star Trek actor DeForest Kelley. He shows a clip from his new film with Julia Child, but before it starts, a cabbage rolls out in the studio and is picked up by Sammy. When the clip is finished, all of the guests besides Kelley seem to be in some sort of a trance- they have fallen under the spell of the alien overlord, Zontar!
William B. Williams

## About

William B. WIlliams is an often cohost and sycophant of "The Sammy Maudlin Show" and the host of "The William B. Show". He frequently makes "inspirational" comments on the guests and their actions. He is known to break down crying while speaking emotionally.

## Associates and Relations

Bobby Bittman *(Friend, frequent guest)*

Sammy Maudlin *(Friend, cohost)*

* Big brown glasses
* Crying
* Adulation and flattery
* The phrase "Can I just say something?"
Guy Caballero

Guy and his son (Bobby Bittman??) in the “Godfather” spoof.

## About

Guy Caballero is the head of SCTV Network. He is usually seen in a wheelchair despite the obvious absence of any sort of disability, claiming that it is used to gain respect.

Guy is highly authoritative, brusque and greedy, frequently attempting to raise large amounts of money throughout the series under the guise it is ”to fund the station” when in reality it ends up in his pocket instead. He underpays most of his employees (with the exception of Larry Seigel, oddly), specifically showing contempt for Johnny LaRue and providing him with a barely existent salary.

Guy can certainly be classified as shady, often trying to work his way around authority in any conceivable way that he can (but most of the time failing to succeed without consequences). He resembles, in both appearance and persona, a mafia boss, and may well be considered one if regarding The Godfather episode as canon.

## Character Trademarks and Qualities

* His white suit and hat
* His mustache
* His wheelchair

## Associates and Relations

Edith Prickley *( Close friend, employee, business partner*)

Bill Needle ( *Close friend, employee, business partner*)

Johnny LaRue ( *Employee, rival*)

Lola Heatherton ( *Employee, ex lover*)
Bobby Bittman

Bobby Bittman (real name: Herschel Slansky) is a filmmaker, writer, comedian, and singer. He is a frequent guest on The Sammy Maudlin Show and is close friends with Sammy. Bobby is somewhat narcisisstic, often showing great pride in himself and his works. He is very loud, showy, and energetic, attempting to steal the spotlight and garner attention as often as possible. Much like Sammy and Lola Heatherton, he is overly, and often dramatically, cathartic, bringing out the tears in his performances to enhance them for the audience- even when it is unnecessary to.

Bobby appears multiple times throughout the series, not only starring on The Sammy Maudlin Show but as a host for the station’s telethons, a guest on other talk shows, such as the Dick Cavett Show, and on his own programs, even occasionally getting his own performances. In addition, he is an amateur filmmaker and actor, creating several projects and playing one of the leads in the SCTV Movie of the Week, Maudlin’s Eleven.

Bobby‘s productions are notable due to many of them being obvious ripoffs of existing films.

## Trademarks and Character Qualities

* His catchphrase: “HOW ARE YAA?”
* His red blazer and white undershirt
* His flashy gold jewelry

5 Neat Guys

The 5 Neat Guys themselves

**The 5 Neat Guys** were a quintet of male singers, popular in **Melonville,** where the SCTV Network maintained its international headquarters.

## About

An *a capella* group, the 5 Neat Guys consisted of every Season 4 male cast member of the *SCTV* series, each of whose members was represented by a number. They were noted for contrasting a clean-cut image with song lyrics that tended to be somewhat risque.

Some of their biggest hits included "Step Around My Clip-on Tie," "Who Made the Egg Salad Sandwiches?", "I'm the Goof In The Classroom," and perhaps their biggest hit and most controversal song, "Patsy Has the Largest Breasts in Town."
Johnny LaRue

Johnny after a severe brawl with boss and rival Guy Caballero

**Johnny LaRue** was the late John Candy's first prominent *SCTV* character.

## About

Johnny LaRue was the first main character introduced in the series. In the first and second seasons, his personality differed slightly from the way it was in later seasons, and he was then shown to be an aggressive alcoholic with violent tendencies and little to no morality. He evolved to become, later on, a sort of parody on **Hugh Hefner** in that he became a womanizer who wore a trademark robe very similar to that of the *Playboy* founder, and in that a slew of scantily clad women called “The Gerbils,” who were nearly identical to the iconic *Playboy* Bunnies, were gathered around him on occasion.

In the first season, Johnny was also shown as a food critic who visited and documented various restaurants in Melonville, but he switched to a filmmaker as of Season 4 and continued that role through Season 5.

Johnny frequently conflicted with Guy Caballero due to the disrespect given to him by Guy and the clashing of their mutually hostile personalities.

## Trademarks and Character Qualities

* His embroidered burgundy robe, donning the initials “JLaR.”
* Insistence of his sexual orientation--he was NOT gay.
* His obsession with using crane shots in his productions.

## Associates and Relations

Guy Caballero *(Boss, rival)*

Bobby Bittman *(Friend)*
Ian Thomas

## Song[s] Performed

“Hold On”

“Pilot”

## Context

Bob and Doug Mackenzie leave the studio after being heckled by their crew. While they are sitting outside on the lawn cooking back bacon, Johnny LaRue approaches them and bribes them to wash his limo, inviting them with him to the club afterwards with the promise of The Gerbils also being there. At the club, the three are joined by the pesky Brian Johns while Ian Thomas performs onstage, but the brothers get their seats taken while they leave for drinks. They decide to steal Brian’s topic by interviewing Ian after the show and follow him backstage. Ian recognizes that they are Canadian “hosers” and lets them in on a secret- he is as well, but disguises the fact for the purpose of showbusiness. Bob and Doug interview him on their show, rolling footage of his earlier performance that they had recorded secretly, but since they left their camera behind, Ian nabs it, bursts into the Great White North studio next door, and starts filming without their permission. The show cuts to an end, in black and white much to Bob’s chagrin.

## Trivia

Ian Thomas is the real life brother of Dave Thomas.
Boomtown Rats, The

## Song[s] Performed

"Never in a Million Years"

"The Elephant's Graveyard"

## Context

The Boomtown Rats appear twice in the episode. They first show up on Farm Report with Big Jim McBob and Billy Sol Hurok, where they perform "Never in a Million Years" before blowing up...real good. Later on, they make an appearance in the SCTV Movie of the Week, Teacher's Pet, where they play the rowdy students of Ricardo Montalban's character, Zachary- a new professor who is set to manage an out of control classroom with an authoritative hand (and a sword in it) over the students that no one else has ever had. Lead singer of The Boomtown Rats, Bob Geldof, acts as the class's main ruffian opposite to Zachary, as well as being the boyfriend of Sarah, The Student Body. Zachary decides eventually to retire from teaching and pursue a career as a masseuse in the Caribbeans, but not before the students throw him a going away party complete with a live performance, not only by The Boomtown Rats themselves but by Cookie- a cheeky British schoolgirl- who serenades him with an emotional rendition of "Teacher's Pet."
Edith Prickley

## About

Edith Prickley is the SCTV Network’s station manager. She has a very large role in the series, often playing important parts in the storylines of many episodes, but does not become a main character until season two, when she is promoted by Guy for her position after the kidnapping of Moe Green.

In addition to being the station manager, she has been shown performing in a wide array of various programs on the network, from cooking shows to telethons to live performances, and even more. She is upbeat and boisterous, with an often irreverent sense of humor and a tendency to break out into song every once in a while.

Skip Bittman

Skip on the Red Carpet for The People’s Global Golden Choice Awards?

## About

Skip Bittman (real name: Tzvi Slansky) is the younger brother of Bobby Bittman. He attempts to copy his more successful brother in every possible way, donning the same hairstyle, wearing similar attire, and speaking nearly identically to him. Skip appears in the series a handful of times, accompanying Bobby or the rest of the Maudlin Gang each one. Much like his older sibling, he is very loud and overexcitable.

## Trivia

The character of Skip Bittman came to be due to Rick Moranis’ admiration of Bobby Bittman.
Tony Bennett

## {Appears In

S4 Episode 01: The Great White North Palace

## Song[s] Performed

" I Wish I Were in Love Again"

"The Best is Yet to Come"

## Context

The SCTV Network is declining in ratings and viewership due to repetitive reruns being broadcast on the channel. Guy Caballero, desperate to fix this dilemma quickly, takes a suggestion from The Scutz Brothers- promote Bob and Doug Mackenzie and spice up their program, The Great White North, to reel in viewers. Guy approaches them later on as they converse with Johnny LaRue in the utility closet - their current dressing room- forcing Johnny to turn over his dressing room to them, which he responds to with tears and pleading as Guy also adds that, of course, the brothers are to take priority over him and any programs he may have scheduled.

Later, Guy consults with Tony Bennett in his office to negotiate a live performance on the Mackenzie brothers' special and is interrupted by a very angry Lola Heatherton, who proceeds to yell at him for cancelling her show and treating Bobby and Johnny so unfairly before storming out. Bob and Doug prepare for their special and finally go live, but the show, as expected, ends up failing, as they are both too confused to act accordingly. Tony Bennett is introduced to salvage the program and performs "I Wish I Were in Love Again" before the focus is turned back on the Mackenzie brothers, who are poorly attempting to flirt with Joyce DeWitt and Morgan Fairchild backstage, both of whom end up walking out on them.

After their show is cut and the performers have left, the brothers clean up the studio, dismayed at the ruined opportunity of getting their much needed fame beyond their usual one minute show. They take their seats back on the Great White North set and are approached by Tony, who tells them that being in the spotlight isn't the only thing that matters in showbusiness- it's also the effort and the passion that counts. Tony gives a brief and encouraging performance for the boys and sings "The Best is Yet to Come." Afterward, they offer him a beer and Bob inquires if he can perform he and Doug's favorite song, "Stairways to Heaven," but Doug tells him with a smile that they now have a new favorite song. They toast.

Maudlin’s Eleven

Opening credits

S4 Episode 02: Preteen World Telethon

## Summary

The film opens on a closeup of the licenseplate of Bobby Bittman as he parks his car, then stops and exits for a smoke. Sammy Maudlin and William B. Williams are shown meanwhile at Sammy’s pad, surrounded by and receiving shoulder massages from a group of scantily clad women, when Bobby walks in, making his presence known with his distinct line, “how are ya?!” Sammy introduces his plan shortly- he, Bobby, William, Bill Needle, and Skip Bittman, are going to pull a heist. Naturally, Bobby is opposed to the inclusion of his brother, but Sammy is insistent and Bobby reluctantly plays along.

Elsewhere, Bill is performing at the Blue Angel music and burlesque club, where he is finishing a song onstage and garnering very little reception from the audience, to which he comments snarkily. He then introduces his wife- one of the dancers- and demands that the crowd refrain from seeing her while she performs, but as expected, one of the men turns around and makes a remark, earning a harsh strike from Bill as he’d warned not to look at his wife in such a way, despite this being her act. He is signaled by Sammy with a melodic whistle and leaves promptly, but not before yelling at his wife.

In the meantime, Skip is onstage somewhere giving a failing comedy routine when he gets alerted by Bobby from the audience, who had been feigning amusement at his brother’s unfunny jokes.

With everyone having been recruited accordingly, the men gather and Sammy carefully explains his plan of action- they are to sneak into and loot the dressing room of the actor, Danny Thomas. Demonstrating with a map of the premises, Sammy assigns everyone their roles in order to pull the heist off smoothly. He and the Harmonica Gang, who have also been appointed, will create a distraction for the security guards while Bill cuts the power lines, allowing for Bobby and William to sneak in. Skip will be on watch while also playing a part in the diversion. After laying out the directions, the men grin and nod to each other, with Bill being, for obvious reasons, the least enthusiastic of all.

The heist is set in motion. The Harmonica Gang play music by the phone booth, Sammy readies himself for his act in a garbageman outfit, Bobby and William watch Skip‘s opening routine, and Bill climbs the telephone pole, cursing his wife before cutting the lines and electrocuting himself. With the power out, Bobby and William seize their chance, and dressed in black bodysuits, make their way to the target with Skip in toll. Sammy has parked a garbage truck outside and distracts a guard by pretending to have trouble starting it. Bobby and William reach the dressing room and are about to successfully end the heist with their loot in hand when the lights turn back on and they are confronted by Danny Thomas himself.

After hitting the Harmonica Gang with his car, Skip waits outside calling for his brother before giving up. Despite their best ambitions, the heist had failed miserably.

## Recurring Hosts

Angus Crock

Edith Prickley

Norman Gorman

Alki Stereopolis
James Ingram

## Context

Dr. Tongue has opened a new restaurant- the 3D House of Beef. Count Floyd, who is set to host, introduces the night’s entertainment, but the group bombs quickly and receives boos from the audience. Dr. Tongue calls for backup and James Ingram, who is currently stocking meat in the freezer, goes to replace the failing singers. After it is over, James demands payment from Dr. Tongue but he refuses to give him anything in return for his performance. James tackles him.
Roy Orbison

## Song[s] Performed

“Pretty Woman”

“Workin for the Man”

## Context

Roy Orbison performs on Mel’s Rockpile as an honorary guest because Mel met him- and fainted in response- years ago on his very first special. Mel, still starstruck, faints again at the start of the performance and regains consciousness after it ends, then asks Roy why he never started a sausage company.
Talking Heads/The Plastics

## Song[s] Performed

"Once in a Lifetime" - Talking Heads

"Top Secret Man" - The Plastics

## Context

This episode is unique in that it presents not just one, but two musical guests. The first to appear is The Talking Heads, who show up as a performance on The Gerry Todd Show. After the song, Gerry goes live to Tim Ishimuni, who is in Japan flaunting a new microcam and a music video from The Plastics. When the video ends, Gerry takes the opportunity to discuss Japanese-manufactured technology with the audience and stresses the importance of supporting domestic product instead, but Tim cuts in and hijacks the show to prove the superiority of Japan's advanced technology. When the show cuts off entirely, a PSA is shown onscreen encouraging alliance between all cultures against one common enemy- the Russians.

## Trivia

* This is the only episode of the series to feature two separate musical guests.
* The bumper at the end of the propaganda PSA is "Today is Moscow", a direct callback to CCCP-1.
Gunny Rabbit

As a young hare Gunny dreamt of a career in television. Hours spent watching Mr. Ed convinced him the thespian life was the road he would hop down. After graduating Summa Cum Laude from the **Ricardo Montalban School of Fine Acting**, he landed several commercials hawking Cat Food. Controversy dogged Gunny when it was revealed he was a rabbit and not a cat. Still, he was at the top of his game. Also his hutch.

Free carrots offered by rival networks were brushed aside in intensive negotiations for his services. A chance encounter with **Captain Combat** led to a lucrative contract with SCTV.

Gunny was seriously injured during an episode of the children's program Captain Combat when Mr. Schnauzer was accidentally fired by the Captain.

## Biography

Saul was a smart and calm guest. He liked to stir up trouble among the guests, particularly in voting. If not for his sneaky voting, Kaleb and Liam would likely still be alive for a few more episodes. He would often strategize with Jaden in the voting. He was a generally well-liked guest with no enemies. He became a power duo with Abi after her other duo was murdered. He started becoming close friends with her and started voting normally. After the double elimination that resulted in his partner dying, he continued to be friendly towards the remaining guests. When the survivors couldn't decide, he and everyone else voted themself. He and Nate got lucky and did not go into the final duel. Saul managed to escape with only one duel under his belt.

After the first duelists are chosen, he is put with Posi to help him survive. Frank notices a crack in the plank behind the duelists and saves Posi, winning the duel and receiving the first torch.

She eventually went on to take a hit for her nemesis, Cassie. The two began slowly becoming friends even as Cassie was losing the only people she actually talked to. After the loss of Nicole she continued going in her honor instead of lying down and waiting to die with her. She used her courage and teamwork in order to reach the finale.

Wendy O’Williams & The Plasmatics

## Appears On

S4 Episode 2: I’m Taking My Own Head, Screwing It On Right, and No Guy’s Gonna Tell Me That it Ain’t

## Context

Wendy and The Plasmatics are one of the many musical groups to perform on The Fishing Musicians throughout the series. Gil rolls footage of he and them on their photo safari trip in the woods together, during which Willie Nelson gets stuck in a tree and Wendy fights off a gorilla. It is shown that Wendy suddenly shows up topless when the men are barbecuing.

The performance itself is edgy and extravagant, and toward the end of the song, Wendy begins smashing and destroying the objects in the room, much to Gil’s surprise. When it’s over, she graffitis her name on the wall in spray paint and Gil, though slightly shaken, applauds she and the group. He then notices that his dog, a black Labrador, has evidently turned white.

## Trivia

None of the cast or crew expected Wendy to take her shirt off- it was completely unscripted.

She demands, after seeing a live performance, that Southside Johnny and the Ashbury Dukes must perform at the ceremony. The party goes well between she and her nerdy fiancé while Mr. and Mrs. Fracas mingle with the crowd, with Mr. Fracas becoming increasingly distressed and Mrs. Fracas being hit on and goosed by a thick-accented European man. Bunny gets upset and starts to cry when the band is about to depart, so Mr. Fracas persuades them to play one last song.
Cassandra

She tells the guests that they will die but there is a way to save some of them. She helps the guests perform the vote.
Zomb

**Zomb** was known as a "Spirit Gatherer" and appeared alongside his spirits Skyler and Fabio. He is guilty of swapping the spirits of the remaining guests so they all are in each others bodies. Although he works for the evil, he shows signs of friendly and good thoughts. He only performs the rituals in order to help his current spirits. In Episode 1.7 he shows his true colors and helps the remaining 4 guests. He sacrifices his new spirits of Regan and Abi in order to help his ally, Lexter release his demon, Sejidri. Zomb is seen presumably dying to Riley's possessed copies of the passed guests of Season 1.

Michael

**Michael** was a Guard Commander who was an ally to the guests. He helped the guests enter the castle but was captured before he could catch up to them. He reappears chained to the wall along with the other missing guests and JC. He is freed and escapes with the guests to their safe haven. After the guests vote for duelists, Nikki and Posi, he is chosen to fight alongside Nikki in which he fails. The guards kill both him and Nikki. After Frank place the Red Torch in the furnace, he, Nikki and the guards all disappear.

*Corpse of Michael*
Scott

**Scott** was the first extra to be used for a duel. He was a small man who just wanted to grow back to his normal height. He got a contract to help the evil in order to make this happen. He made the first two duelists search in his identical doll houses for the first scroll that they needed, the Red Scroll. He was able to achieve his goal of growing by shrinking the loser of the duel, Kaleb. His fate is unknown.
Sammy the Goose

Sammy the Goose appeared on the children's program **Happy Hour** as the affable sidekick to Happy Marsden. Together they wished a happy birthday to children of Melonville and the Tri-City area. Following those wishes Sammy would view episodes of **Six Gun Justice** with Happy.

Not much is known of Sammy's life prior to joining the happy crew of Happy Hour. The young gosling (no relation to Ryan Gosling) could be seen practicing lines from Shakespeare's Hamlet in the park.
Episode 1.6

*Soul Gathering* is the sixth episode of Season 1. It begins with Abi finding a keyhole in the wall. Regan, knowing she has the key, suggests the guests to check upstairs. She then proceeds to use the key, Cassie watching her as she does so. Nate decides to check the empty safe. The guests are surprised to see him faint as he looks in. A green ball appears above him. Regan and Cassie talk about how Regan hid the key. Saul interrupts them. Regan then gets caught and faints, with a pink ball appearing. Then the rest of them all get caught too. The colored balls swap around people and it turns out that they are their spirits. As the guests are getting more and more confused, Zomb appears to explain. It turns out Zomb is a Soul Gatherer. He shows how he has multiple spirits, and his two main ones are his sidekicks, Fabio and Skyler. The guests must go through the Yin-Yang trials in order to proceed. But the Yin-Yang spirits needed to take over two of the guests bodies, being Cassie and Abi. Nate and Abi's spirits have to share with Regan in Nate's body. The Trial of Light was to find 4 dolls of Skyler hidden in haystacks. The Trial of Dark was to find 5 dolls of Fabio hidden in cola cans. After completing each trial, some spirits were moved to their original bodies. After the trials, the guests are told to vote 3 people into a duel. These 3 turned out to be Abi, Regan and Cassie. The 3 had to free a soul trapped in a box, but it wasn't easy to find which ones. In the 2-2-2 draw, with 3 boxes and only 1 spirit, it was down to pure luck. In the end Cassie got lucky again, causing Abi and Regan to be turned into souls, freeing Fabio and Skyler. The episode ends on Cj being shown dead on the kitchen counter.
Shirt Glue

**Shirt Glue** was a brand of adhesive marketed in SCTV commercial parodies. It was contained in aerosol spray cans that its user, typically male, would buy. The said user would then spray the can's contents directly onto the skin of his back so that his shirt tails might not pull free of it.

## Real-world substitutes

The United States armed forces, in the real world, tend to have their male personnel employ either elastic bindings, inside which the shirts of their Class A uniforms may be bound, or pairs of full-leg garters, to which their shirts may be attached.
Season 2

**Escape the Night Season 2** is the second season of Riley's Escape the Night. It was unfortunately cancelled due to lack of motivation and the time-consuming process it took to create episodes. It was replaced with a new format with Danganronpa: Unstable Futures.
