Episode 13 (Original broadcast date: October 18, 2002)
Mandy's Comment: Dance. Dance like you've never danced before.
13A. Little Rock of Horrors
Story by Gord Zajac; Storyboard by Maxell Atoms
Marvelous spoof of Little Shop of Horrors: Ignored by all his friends, Billy wishes for someone to play with and a brain-eating meteor from outer space appears! Since Billy has no brain for it to eat, the meteor uses Billy to bring it the brains of everyone else in town. (This show has never had a problem sacrificing the entire cast if need be!) With the exception of the very beginning and the very end, the entire episode is in the form of a song called "Brains," written in the very catchy Big Band swing style.13B. The Pie Who Loved Me
Story by Gord Zajac; Storyboard by Alex Almaguer
Musical take-off of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, in which Hector Con Carne uses pies baked by Major Doctor Ghastly to take over the world.13C. Dream A Little Dream
Story by Gord Zajac; Storyboard by Michael Diedrich
In this astonishingly good send-off of Disney's Fantasia, Mandy, Billy and Grim eat an ancient left-over pizza that gives them indigestion and three individual nightmares, each of which features nasty pizza slices. Billy dreams of idyllic sylvan scenes with Disney-esque animals that turn into monsters, Grim's nightmare has Mandy ordering him around while replicating herself endlessly, and Mandy's nightmare is a wonderful parody of A Night on Bald Mountain (with music in the style of Modest Moussorgsky's Night on Bald Mountain. a.k.a. Night on Bare Mountain) where Mandy is the monster who comes out of the mountain and watches happily as nightmarish pizza-bat creatures swirl around her. Naturally, only Mandy gets a good night's sleep, and she finishes off the last piece of pizza in the morning while Billy and Grim cannot even imagine eating breakfast.
Episode 14 (Original broadcast date: June 13, 2003)
Mandy's Comment: "We're back...with a vengeance."
(This is just a repeat
of episode 8's opening, but it's apropos under the circumstances,
as the
show hasn't put on new episodes since last October.)
14A. Toadblatt's School of Sorcery
Story by Ben Spergel; Storyboarded by Michael Diederich and Maxwell Atoms
In this unsubtle Harry Potter spoof, Grim signs Billy and Mandy up for Toadblatt's School of Sorcery Summer School, where the Sorting Squid banishes Billy and Mandy to Weaselthorpe, "the worst house on the campus," which is where all the losers and geeks end up. Although rival Gunderstank House wins the school cup every year, this time Mandy is determined that Weaselthorpe should win. To ensure victory she sabotages everything Gunderstank House does and then frames her fellow Weaselthorpe member Nigel Planter (who wears big black round glasses and has an L-shaped scar on his forehead) for the crimes.14B. Educating GrimMost notable moment: When the Sorting Squid tells Mandy it's her turn for him to determine which House to put her in, she comments, "Good, I'm in the mood for calarmari."

Billy and Mandy take Grim to school with them, introducing him around as an "exchange student from the underworld."

Story by Gord Zajac; Storyboarded by Mike Diederich
After Grim brings Billy and Irwin's Hokey Monster cards to life, every kid in town clamors after him to do the same for them. Though the monsters are cute when they're young, eventually they grow up and start destroying the town. When Mandy finally gets fed up with the situation, she makes her own monster card and demands that Grim bring it to life, whereupon it vanquishes all the other monsters and sleeps in her bed at night.Most notable moment: Mandy's Monster's attributes: makes toast out of all the other monsters.

Story by Gord Zajac / Storyboarded by Paul McEvoy
In this unusually long episode (one of only two for today's show), Grim tells Mandy, Billy and Irwin the story of the haunted Doolan house, a place where no one who goes in has ever been seen again. The ungrammatical title of the episode refers to a long-standing rivalry between Mrs. Doolan and Grim, invariably won by Mrs. Doolan.B. Tween Wolf
Most notable moment: Billy goads Mandy into entering the property and is so sure she won't do it that he is still ragging on her for being afraid to try long after she's already gone in.
Story by Gord Zajac / Storyboarded by Mucci Fassett
After Irwin is bitten by a werewolf, Billy enters him in a dog show in direct competition with Mandy and her constantly-drooling dog, Saliva.Most notable moment: a recreation of the famous scene from Rocky and Bullwinkle.

Love Is Evol Spelled BackwardsMost notable moment: Mandy gets a makeup and hair makeover from Grim.
Story by Craig Lewis / Storyboarded by Paul McEvoy
On Valentine's Day, a desperately lonely Nergal leaves the underworld to claim Billy's spinsterish (and highly unattractive) Aunt Sis as his bride, which turns Billy into his nephew by marriage.

A. The Crawling Niceness
Story by Maxwell Atoms / Storyboarded by Maxwell AtomsOnce again, Billy goes into Grim's "forbidden trunk." This time he pulls out a giant egg, which despite Billy's hope for a duck, hatches into a giant spider named Jeff.

Most notable moment: Billy sends Mandy into his bedroom to squash the spider, and she emerges a bit later wearing a really nice sweater that Jeff has knitted her.
B. Smarten Up

Most notable moment: Milkshakes tries to get Billy to do a word problem, but Billy is more interested in what color the train is and who's on it than in anything relevant to the question, like how many miles per hour the train might be traveling.
C. The Grim Show
Story by Craig Lewis / Storyboarded by Trevor WallInfuriated by the cancellation of his favorite show (Atrocia's Late-Night Atrocities), Grim takes over TV station K-POO, starts his own program and sets the denizens of the underworld free to be technicians, musicians, co-hosts and guests. When the show zooms to #1, Mandy gets upset because her chores have started piling up and Grim thinks he's too big a star to do menial tasks for her now. He should know better than to say no to Mandy.
Most notable moment: Mandy catches sight of Grim on TV and comments, "The camera really DOES add 10 pounds," about her skeletal friend.
Episode 20
Original broadcast date: July 25, 2003
Mandy's Comment: "We accept you. We accept you...One of us."
20A. Son of Nergal

Nergal sends his son, Junior, to the same Winter Camp attended by Mandy and Billy, where the poor lonely child kills off almost everyone in the place because they don't like him.20B. Sister Grim

Story by Gord Zajac / Storyboarded by Brett VaronGrim is mistaken for the Mother Superior of an order of nuns all shaped like little Russian nesting dolls, and is surprised to find himself ejoying the experience.Most notable moment: The little nuns assemble themselves into one giant Transformer Nun when angered.

Here are the words to the "song" that Billy and Irwin come up with while racing along, and thanks very much to Cassie for sending this to me.Well, we built our car all by ourselves!
If you don't like it, you can go to...HECK! Hehe!
With a HONK HONK HONK and a BEEP BEEP BEEP!
We're grease monkeys! Grease monkeys! Hear me beep!Most notable moment: In an ending that parodies Speed Racer, all the regular entrants end up commiting mayhem on each other's cars, so the race is won by the Mystery Racer, a kid in a little red wagon wearing a paper bag over his head.
Episode 21
Original broadcast date: August 1, 2003
Mandy's Comment: "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law"
Typical Mandy to pick the satanic version, when there is a perfectly good Wiccan version that goes, "An thou do no harm, do as thou wilt; and that shall be the whole of the law." What that means in plain English is, "As long as you do no harm, do what you want..." Of course Mandy prefers the version without the qualifier!
21A. Terror of the Black KnightEpisode 22
Story by Craig Lewis / Storyboarded by Alex AlmaguerAt a renaissance fair, Grim costumes Billy in "the Cursed Suit of the Mighty Black Knight," armor which will not come off or open for any reason until Billy beats an opponent in a challenge. Too bad about the "King Suck"-sized cup of fruit punch he had consumed moments before Grim got him the armor.21B. Battle of the BandsMost notable moment: Unimpressed by the fair, Grim reminisces about the Middle Ages: "I had so much fun doing the real Black Plague -- and this just stinks."
Story by Craig Lewis / Storyboarded by Brett Varon
Grim plays the guitar and Billy plays the armpit, but Billy can't understand it when his favorite band, Purple Filth, chooses Grim instead of him to fill an opening with the group for the upcoming Battle of the Bands. Cartoon Network used to offer the song for download, but has discontinued the link.Most notable moment: Grim plays a mean guitar at his audition, literally burning down the town.
21C. The Halls of Time
Story by Gord Zajac / Storyboarded by Michael DiederichBilly, Mandy and Irwin can't go on a field trip to the glue factory because the schoolbus driver takes one look at Grim and drives off in a panic, so Grim conducts an alternate field trip to the Halls of Time. Father Time shows them the hourglasses which tick off their lifespans. Guess what comes next.Most notable moment: When Irwin finds out where Grim is planning to take him, he says, "I'm pretty sure my mother doesn't allow me to go to the netherworld."
This is the last original Grim Adventures of the season until one more on October 1, so settle in for the wait...
Episode 2322A. Grim for a Day
Story by Craig Lewis / Storyboarded by Paul McEvoyWhen Billy and Grim bicker repeatedly about who has the hardest time of it, Mandy suggests they change places for a day. But long before the day is over, they begin to turn into each other for real.Most notable moment: A scythe-carrying, cloaked and hooded Billy the Reaper shows up to take his very first soul, but the confused old man who answers the door hands him candy, thinking it must be Halloween.
22B. Chicken Ball Z
Story by Ben Spergel / Storyboarded by Matt SullivanIn an attempt to win a karate tournament, Mandy turns black belt and big-haired thanks to the Chicken Ball, a mess of chicken meat, feathers and bones that dates all the way back to the Ping Pong dynasty...supplied (unknown to Mandy) by Eris, who is already fully aware of the havoc Mandy can reap even under the most ordinary of circumstances. This episode is not only a take-off of "Dragon Ball Z," but it also has a clever little cross-over with "Evil Con Carne" at the very end.22C. Max Courage!Most notable moment: Before consuming the Chicken Ball, which will fulfill her greatest desire, Mandy suspiciously inquires as to its MSG content.
Story by Gord Zajac / Storyboarded by Alex AlmaguerThis episode has the show returning to the old mixed "Grim and Evil" format.
In this parody of "Johnny Quest", Dr. Courage, his favorite son Max, their ferret Rascal and Rick, the son whose name Dr. Courage can never remember, are all invited to Bunny Island, ostensibly so Dr. Courage can visit his old pupil, Major Dr. Ghastly. In reality, Major Dr. Ghastly has tricked Dr. Courage into coming so that he can help her, voluntarily or not, complete work on her latest world domination device, "The War Machine."Most notable moment: When Dr. Courage demands to know why Major Dr. Ghastly has allowed Hector to turn her to evil, Ghastly replies, "You don't understand. I was young. I was in college. I didn't know any better." Okay, maybe you have to be over 30 to understand how funny that really is!
This was shown as a Halloween special, and was a half-hour episode.
Episode 2423. Billy and Mandy's Jacked-Up Halloween
Written by Maxwell Atoms, Brett Varon, and Paul McEvoy / Storyboarded by Brett Varon and Maxwell AtomsBilly borrows Grim's scythe to be part of his grim reaper Halloween costume and promptly loses it to Grim's greatest enemy, Jack O'Lantern, who uses the power of the scythe to kidnap Grim with the intention of scything off his head. G.I. Mandy sets out to retrieve the scythe and rescue Grim by setting up a series of practical jokes, distractions Jack cannot resist once poor, hapless Irwin sets them into motion.
Most notable moment: Billy tells Grim, "You know, this wouldn't have happened if you didn't loan me your scythe in the first place."
24A. Spider's Little Daddy
Story by Maxwell Atoms / Storyboarded by Spencer LaudieroDuring a father-son picnic in the park, Billy is reunited with Jeff, the giant spider who considers Billy to be his father. ("The Crawling Niceness") Rejected by Billy for a second time, Jeff turns to Mandy for lessons to make him meaner after Mandy assures him a hardball attitude will get Billy to love him.
Most notable moment: Jeff finally gets so annoyed with Billy that he wraps him in spider silk and hangs him on the wall. (This reminds me quite a bit of the ending to "The Really Odd Couple," the episode where Mandy bricks Billy up in the wall after being forced to share a room with him.)
24B. Tricycle of Terror
Story by Gord Zajac / Storyboarded by Carl GreenblattA weird kid in a magical porta-potty gives Billy a mysterious tricycle which turns out to be possessed by an evil force. The episode is reminiscent of Stephen King's novel "Christine" as well as a couple of Edgar Allen Poe stories.
Most notable moment: Sperg takes Billy's trike and throws it over the edge where the sidewalk ends. This scene is an homage to Shel Silverstein's cover art for his book,"Where the Sidewalk Ends," right down to the dog dangling off to the side. If you're not familiar with this book, check out the cover here.
