"Bride of Franken-who?!"

Three guesses as to who we open the Halloween ep on. Nope. Nope. Yes!! Our Bridg. She's at some artist/cartoonists' studio posing for a Halloween drawing of her and Winnie. This scene is pretty much just filler, but it does have one interesting aspect: Bridget is posing with a Madi Gras feathered cap for a picture where she wants to be depicted as Frankenstein's bride. What kind of 'shrooms is this artist on? All I ask is that she keep them away from Kendra.

Next we see the mans as its staff prepares for the festivities. Each of the girls has her own gravestone, the funniest of which is, of course, Kendrizzle's: "Here lies Kendra, shaking her ass under the grass." It's funny because it will be so, so very true.

Earthquaaaaake!

We learn that Bridget has been asked to help produce what my Comcast guide calls a "low-budget horror movie." I paid extra-close attention and they never actually refer to it as "low-budget" in the ep. You know it's bad when the cable company is dissing you.

The other producers come over to the mansion to tell Bridg the movie's deets and one of them brought gifts - some monster masks. Always the blindly-passive lady, B accepts the gifts graciously. But she confides what she really thought during her testimonial. "I'm not big on monsters. I'm very big on killers and haunted stuff." Psh, horror snob.

But the producers do bring some good news - they want the movie to be filled with oodles of Playmates, and they're going to hold the casting call in a vampire book store. (Don't worry, Playmates. They are books ABOUT vampires. Those black shapes on the pages can't hurt you.)

OK, we've been focusing on Bridgenstein for far too long, don't you think GND writers? Ah, they agree. Let's see how Hef is decorating the mansion.

Hef is a huuuge Frankenstein fan (maybe he's trying to model his hunched back after the monster) and he's ordered a giant Frankie statue to be placed somewhere in the mans. But where? Hm, I sure hope all of the characters will be involved in some way.

First Hef tells the movers to bring it up to his and Holly's room, but it won't do. "What the helllll?" she says. "I think there are better places to put a 7-foot monster than your bedroom." (Nah, too easy.) Btw - is anyone else surprised that Hollz said the H-word? I feel like she never swears.

Next Hefey Locks has the movers bring the statue down to the gym and, who'd'a thunk, Kendra is down there walking leisurely on the treadmill. "You want to put that in the gym?!" The 'Drizzle scoffs. "I work out late at night and I don't want to be staring that that thing!" Please, you've seen WAY scarier things late at night - most often coming out of a red-and-black silk smoking robe. (Couldn't resist.)

"I just want to be lurrrved!"

But fine, Hef concedes. Bridget, the queen of Halloween, MUST take in poor Frankie. "I love it," she says as the poor movies lug him in. But her face looks like it's been shot-full of Botox - she's not pleased.

Wait, you know what? When I started writing about this scene I thought it was just a ploy to squeeze each of the main characters into a pointless 5-minute plotline, but I'm so wrong. The GND producers are actually creating a modern portrayal of Frankenstein! The wretch doesn't know where he came from and he's just wandering around aimlessly without a soul to take him in. OK, instead of living in a hovel he's in a mansion, but whatever.

They finally decide to stash the poor guy in the great hall, where in a few days the scantily clad villagers will descend upon him wielding pitchforks of vomit and cocaine.

Anyways, it's time for the script reading of Bridget's movie, and who better to read said script than the mans staff. There are three noteworthy parts to this scene:
