## Plot

The Babes open their show by explaining the recent Headless Horseman appearance and debating issues with the production of the show. They wish to shed light on recent dark happenings. One of the Babes believe that the bright pink set will ruin the tone, but their options are limited. The other Babes explain that good writing and proper editing will be what helps set the mood. They say how they wish to document whatever is going on with the Headless Horseman. However, they also have an ulterior motive.

The trio really wanted to make the show so that they could heal their relationship with the fourth Babe, Spike. He had previously been ousted from the group when he went through an Emo phase in high school. At the time, this was super uncool to the Babes. But, now, they want to welcome him back. They realise that that their 'vibe' needs to be a welcoming one. To include him, they *Skype* him in from his East Coast home in Providence. Spike also has a degree in Computer Science. The other Babes somehow find this boring and asperational.

Spike explains that he originally ignored their call. However, he later decided to pick up becuase his therapist helped him realise that talking to the Babes might help heal issues from high school. The Babes happily welcome him, and they briefly discuss issues from high school. While talking, the Babes use a play on the word 'shot' to shift the conversation to recent footage they captured of Captain Gravy Davy Crowbones.

In the footage, he appears to be searching for treasure. The Babes critique his shovel choice. While filming, they also run into the Trousers. The Trousers, however, are more concerned by the Babes filming choices than the matters at hand. So, they attempt to give them some tips. Very quickly, these 'tips' escalate into the Trousers coming to help produce the Babes' show. In their artistic opinion, the studio is perfect. They can't wait to be a part of whatever story happens.

At the very end, the Babes give an explanation for why their hair is different colours.

## Production

Portions of this episode (such as the outside videos) were shot at Heritage Square Museum while on set for Headless. However, the rest of the episode was later filmed on a separate sound stage in LA. Hence, the Babes different hair colours. Spike's parts were filmed at home which allowed for the same set dressings on the sound stage to be used in the *Skype* background.
