Episode 496 - Manic Panic
Taped: 9/23/2018
Plot:
Knuckles assesses previous flood damages to the swamp where Manic and Sonia live just before a flood is scheduled to hit. They tell Knuckles that they plan on riding the storm together and Knuckles wishes them luck. Overnight, the floodwaters rise and a swaddled baby floats up to Manic's window where it crawls into Manic's bed. Manic doesn't realize this until his alarm clock wakes him the next morning. Sonia and Manic are in disbelief as to how the baby wound up there but both decide to take care of him for the time being. Since the baby is too young to drink normally, they cut a hole in a rubber glove and attach it to a cup, making an impromptu bottle. Amy and Sonic arrive to check on the swamp with Manic and Sonia showing them the baby. Since he has Manic's color scheme, they ask Manic if he remembers any drunken encounters, and it turns out he did at a concert around the time the year before. They think the only way to find out for sure is a paternity test, so they order a do-it-yourself one from Maury Povich. They swab Manic's mouth and the baby's so the machine can analyze their DNA. Unfortunately, the baby drools on Manic's sample and the machine corrupts it into believing Manic's the father. Everyone is shocked at this revelation but they decide it's for the better if Manic and Sonia both raise the baby as their own. They then head into town to buy supplies for the baby unaware that a single mother named Maria has been searching for her son who disappeared the night before. After buying baby needs, Sonic, Amy, Manic, and Sonia stop by a shelter to check on flood victims. They find Maria who tells them that she lost her son in the storm, and that her life has been in a downward spiral ever since her husband's death. She describes her son whom she named Carpaccio and he shares the same characteristics as the baby they found in the swamp. Manic shows the baby and she immediately takes him back, thanking the group for finding her son. They then decide to go the extra mile, offering food and shelter for the time being. The days pass and Maria is able to find an apartment near where her old house was. She writes them a letter, thanking them for their kindness in her hour of need. Amy and Sonia then talk Manic into maybe setting up a date since he became so attached to Carpaccio. She turns him down for a date but they agree to still be friends. Knuckles digs through the floor, claiming he was involved in the craziest adventure that past week. He only says that it involves a Portuguese kid with her mother and a DNA test with Maury on a laptop.
Fun Facts:
It's revealed that Manic has terrible luck with women. Manic and Sonia initially name the baby "Mido" as a shortened form of the Japanese word "midori" meaning "green."
