## Plot

Brom's Babes try to solve mysteries surrounding The Headless Horseman's heads. During their detective work, they learn about the world of filmmaking, have guests on, and burst into song.

### "Episode One: Gravy Davy Crowbones"

The Babes open their show by explaining the recent Headless Horseman appearance and debating issues with the production of the show. Then, the trio explains that they 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. But, they want to welcome him back. To include him, they Skype him in from his east coast home in Providence.

The Babes then show footage they had captured of Captain Gravy Davy Crowbones searching for treasure. Their footage is interrupted by the Trousers giving them tips on how to film. They took it upon themselves to help the Babes produce their show. At the very end, the Babes give an explanation for why their hair is different colours.

### "Episode Two: Max Lee"

The Babes meet the complex Max Lee who is a Revolutionary war reenactor and weed enthusiast. Spike advises the other Babes learn some history, so they turn to Max. He is somewhat informative. During a long-wined ramble, Max reveals that he and two of his friends had actually seen the Lady in White in the woods before. Ramona then leads the trio to believe that investigating this story could be interesting. However, it is too cold outside, so they return inside to ask Spike to tell his story from the woods. Spike grows very emotional when talking and decides that reconnecting with the other Babes was a bad decision. The trio of Babes take this opportunity to self-reflect.

### "Episode Three: Devlyn Versace"

The Babes tackle the wild mystery that is Devlyn Versace. She is a pioneer of the internet realm by being a vlogger, prankster, Brand Ambassador to over 15 mobile pay apps, influencer, and much more. During this episode, Cal deicdes to take the reigns behind the scenes and try his hand at being a director mentee under Eugene Trousers. In front of the camera, the other two Babes Skype Spike (He's giving them a second chance) so that he can fill them in on other details pertaining to Devlyn. He shows a clip from an obnoxious promotional AD of hers before going into details about her life, rise to fame, moments before she went to go bungee jumping out of a turbo blimp, and Ichabod Crane bringing her back from the dead. The Babes decide it has been a successful episode, so they go to party on one of Cal's yachts.

### "Episode Four: Anne Tarry"

The Babes open episode four with a very somber explanation of Anne Tarry's life. Before her death, she worked as an assistant to the mayor. However, it is believed that her death was also due to the mayor poisoning her. During this conversation, two of the babes also get sidetracked by discussing Blair's past dating life. Eugene does not like the side tangets, so he tries to redirect the Babes to focus on the material at hand. When the Babes return on camera, they are reading from scripts. They use the rest of the episode to go over how they help resurrected Anne infiltrate the Van Tassels' dinner with Ichabod. The trousers are very inspired by this narrative.

### "Episode Five: Bruce McConnell"

The Babes open the episode with all three back in front of the camera talking about the comedian Bruce McConnell. They also decide to try to coax the story of the Lady in White out of Spike again. He goes to begin, but he quickly stops when he realises he doesn't trust the other Babes enough, yet. To shift the conversation, the babes readress Bruce McConnell's death. Supposedly, it was because of a tomato allergy. The Babes also speak to members of the audience from his final show. Sadly, these audience members were not able to witness McConnell's full show due to his death. So, the Babes take it upon themselves to finnish the rest of his "Hot Takes" set. After the bit, the Babes film Ichabod looking at a manuscript that Cal eventually steals. The other two Babes tease Cal ("Nerd"). This causes a full blown notes app apology and cliff hanger about the contents of the manuscript.

### "Episode Six: Paulie Tahoe"

The Babes begin the episode by correcting many of their previous wrongs. After these corrections, they go on to introduce the heist icon, Paulie Tahoe. They discuss the Paulie Tahoe biopic, "The Paulie Tahoe Story." With a little bit of work, they even manage to speak to the actor portaying Tahoe, Ryan W. Garcia. He shares his audition tape, crimes he did to prepare for the role, and stories from on set. The episode ends with Ryan running from the police and a brief meltdown from Tripp.

### "Episode Seven: Clip Show"

The Babes open the episode with some interesting singing and a walk down memory lane through a pair of clip shows. Cal, however, is more interested in the manuscript from Elizabeth Van Tassel than the clip shows. Spike is very touched by the clip show the other Babes put together. It is enough to restore his trust in them, so he offers that they should come and visit him. He also has come around to the idea of facing his fears, so he begins to share the story of his encounter in the woods. Him and his other friends went to have a seance near the large rock, and they were visited by the Woman in White. However, while he is describing the woman, Cal slams the computer shut. Thus, ending the call with Spike. By listening and reading, Cal leads the other babes to a realization about the Headless Horseman and Woman in White. They are two seperate people. And, the Woman in White might be Elizabeth Van Tassel.

## Production

The series came to fruition after the *Headless: A Sleepy Hollow Story* Kickstarter campaign passed its stretch goal of 190k. The series would allow a deeper look into Brom's Babes and the heads of the Headless Horseman. Clips of it were filmed while on set for Headless, but the majority of it was filmed later on at a sound stage in LA.

The script of the show also allowed for jokes, pages, and cast that had been cut from Headless to still be included in the canon. Even though Blake Silver was not able to play his originally announced role of Tom Walker in Headless, he was able to film from home and be included as the role of Spike in *Unsolved Babesteries*.

## Trivia

* The Babes' latin crest translates to "live laugh love."
* The show is filmed at Sleepy Hollow Public Access Studio.
* In episode six, Ryan W. Garcia can be seen wearing a *This Could Be On Broadway* ( a Tin Can Brothers musical) shirt.
