Dexter invents a "rude removal system" to remove the rudeness from his sister Dee Dee, but a freak accident leads to him accidentally creating rude, foul-mouthed clones of the two.
Produced in 1997; screened at select film festivals in 1998, but not released to the general public until 2013.
Rude Removal contains examples of:
- Both Sides Have a Point: When Dexter and Dee Dee argue in the episode, they are both correct about the rudeness of the other.
- Brooklyn Rage: Present in the Dexter and Dee Dee clones.
- Flipping the Bird: Dee Dee does this on the title card.
- Grounded Forever: After the food fight, Mom tells Dexter and Dee Dee to go to their rooms "forever".
- Mooning: Dexter does this on the title card.
- Not Helping Your Case: After Mom comes in with a bar of soap, all Dexter has to say is:Dexter: Oh [bleep].
- Rage Breaking Point: Mom reaches this after the Dexter and Dee Dee clones have a big food fight in the kitchen, not helped when Rude Dexter tells her to clean up the mess herself before leaving.
- Rich Language, Poor Language: Dee Dee speaks in a posh English accent after getting in the machine, and Dexter's accent becomes more exaggerated as well, while the clones speak in a New York accent.
- Soap Punishment: What Dexter and Dee Dee have to deal with at the end.
- Unexpectedly Dark Episode: Played for Laughs, but it's by far the cruelest and most mean-spirited episode in the series. A large amount of swearing (bleeped, but it's not hard to figure out what they're saying), and the title card features Dee Dee and Dexter flipping off and mooning the camera, respectively (though this would have likely been Bowdlerised had the episode ever officially aired).
