Episode 1: Empress' New Clothes

In a queer re-telling of the Hans Christian Andersen classic, the empress of a run-down city concludes that the best way to help her people is to throw an extravagant gala to "raise awareness." But, when two impeccably dressed swindlers offer to make her a gown that only empathetic people can see, her true character is...how shall we say...exposed.

Episode 2: Gretel & Gretel

Before they were Ducky and Patsy, they were just two naive, buxom milkmaids in the German countryside. But when a machine comes in to take their jobs they are abandoned in the woods and left for dead. They can not believe their eyes when they stumble upon a train made of sausage conducted by an elusive sausage Queen who is all too eager to give them the job opportunity of a lifetime: sitting in a cage and smothering themselves in herbs and spices. In this twist on the Gimm's fairytale, Gretel & Gretel learn the hard way that good intentions are as rare as good jobs and the only sure means of job security is seizing the means of production or, in this case, commandeering the sausage train.
