** In a sketch from "In Bed Surrounded by Loved Ones", Steve looks at the clues (a set of teeth, a squirrel foaming at the mouth, and a shotgun) and comes to the conclusion that Blue got bitten by a rabid squirrel and is begging for a mercy killing. But as he goes up Blue and pulls out the gun, Steve lets it slip that he's actually doing this because Blue was planning to replace him with "some spotlight stealing son of a bitch named Joe." The sketch ends with Steve about to shoot Blue, only for her to lunge at him with a broken bottle.
