!!The Segments:
[[AC:Prologue]]
* Servo attempts to freeze Crow to absolute zero, but Joel tries to put a stop to it. Crow soon shatters from Joel's intervention.

[[AC:Segment 1]]
* Crow gets better, with some claps and glue from Joel. The Mads don't have this week's invention ready, so they let Joel go first. He presents the Porkarina, a musical swine instrument inspired by ''Series/TheBeverlyHillbillies''. The Mads' invention has Frank's blood replaced with radiator fluid, to his discomfort.

[[AC:Segment 2]]
* Joel and the Bots think about their own personal hells seeing the old gas station from the film. The discussion turns to how they can beat back their own hells through unity and self-liberty.

[[AC:Segment 3]]
* Crow and Servo put Joel in a procedure to turn his face into Arch Hall Jr. through implants and suction cups. The operation is soon interrupted with Movie Sign.

[[AC:Segment 4]]
* While Joel makes popcorn, he and the Bots discuss divorce and dead spouses in the 60s and speculate on the fates of the deceased.

[[AC:Segment 5]]
* Disgusted by the movie, Crow and Servo takes showers on the bridge and Joel begins the letter readings. The letter says that they found what [[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S04E22TheDayTheEarthFroze Sampo]] was, a portable television set. Dr. Forrester changes Frank's radiator fluids, but the two fight over the blood.

According to ''The Mystery Science Theater 3000 Amazing Colossal Episode Guide'' (ISBN 0-553-37783-3) the cast considers the shaving scene from Eegah, in which Eegah lolls his tongue around and laps up shaving cream, to be one of the most disgusting things they've witnessed during their time on the show. The writers also speculate that some kind of romantic relationship existed between Arch Hall Sr. and his on-screen daughter Marilyn Manning, due to the uncomfortably non-familial chemistry in their scenes together. Whatever the case, Ms. Manning was working as Hall's secretary at the time.
