Synopsis

Cold open

Dr. Weird thinks that inflating himself with barbecue sauce will work in his latest plot, until Steve reminds him that he said that it will never work, which Dr. Weird soon remembers.

Plot

Master Shake discovers an underground cavern where the Broodwich, a cursed sandwich, rests. Every bite sends him to a hellish place for a few seconds, and anyone who eats the whole thing is trapped there and sliced at by a short creature with an axe. Eventually, Shake removes the sun-dried tomatoes from the sandwich, nullifying the curse. The evil voice that inhabits the Broodwich somehow convinces Shake to get “free brain surgery” and messes with his brain, then tells him to eat the tomatoes, and since his brain isn’t working properly, he does. The episode ends with Shake in the other dimension and the short creature (Jerry) bringing back his axe aimed at Shake. The scene cuts out just before contact is made.

Ingredients

“Forged in darkness from wheat harvested in Hell’s half-acre, baked by Beelzebub, slathered with mayonnaise beaten from the evil eggs of dark chicken forced into sauce by the hands of a one-eyed madman, cheese boiled from the rancid teat of a fanged cow, layered with six-hundred and sixty-six separate meats from an animal which has maggots for blood. And mustard...dijon mustard!” Also, it turns out, sun-dried tomatoes. Bacon is extra, as there are "no swine evil enough to be sacrificed upon a bed of evil, and lettuce. Bed of evil and lettuce!"

Notes

* This is the second episode that Carl does not appear in.
* The animation style in the other dimension is reminiscent of Don Hertzfeldt’s.

Quotes

"Well...how come no bacon?"-"Bacon is extra!"

"Wha, you call this a sandwich you don't even have bacon on it?!"-"There are no swine evil enough to be sacrificed upon a bed of evil...and lettuce.....BED OF EVIL AND LETTUCE!"
