Episode 593 - Spike Club for Men
Taped: 1/8/21
Plot:
Sonic and Amy bring Lightning, Amber, and Flash over to the swamp only to see that it has frozen over due to a cold weather spell. They go across the ice to Manic and Sonia's house where Sonia answers the door. Manic calls to them from the bathroom as everyone else gets set to make hot soup and sandwiches. Manic comes down wearing a headband, his blow dryer broke after showering. Lightning asks Manic to pierce his ears because Lucy also wears earrings. Manic agrees, having done Sonic's ears before. The process is quick with Manic telling Lightning to keep his earrings on so the piercings can settle. Sonic notices something green on the earrings, but Manic removes it in an effort to make Sonic and Lightning less suspicious. While the gang has lunch, they notice a strong smell of glue which Manic denies is happening. Sonic, Manic, and Lightning then get up to have some man talk. Once they're alone, Sonic and Lightning notice a green spike on the floor. Manic bends over to pick it up, accidentally letting his headband fall which reveals that he is balding. Manic tells everyone that he has been losing his hair for the past 20 years and that it's eating his self-confidence away. Lightning knows someone who can help: Lucy's aunt who works at the hospital and knows a doctor who specializes in hair restoration. Manic meets Dr. Harris at his office with Lightning and Lucy. Dr. Harris analyzes Manic's pattern baldness and explains to him how a hair transplant works. Manic is sold on the idea even if it will take a while for his spikes to grow in full. At his stage, Dr. Harris is asking for $6,000 so he can do the procedure. Manic says that he'll think about it for the time being. Manic relays the information to Sonia, both of them unsure of how they'll pay for the transplant. Amy walks in Lightning's room to discover Lightning packing up is brand new computer and equipment. He intends to sell his Christmas gift from Sonic so Manic can have his full head of hair. Amy appreciates the gesture, but she thinks Lightning should do something else like create a gofundme. Lightning sets one up during a live stream which turns out to be a success, raising $1,500 more than necessary. Lightning shows Manic the gofundme results, and he becomes so grateful that he hugs Lightning. Manic goes over to get the procedure done, thanking Dr. Harris for his work. Manic then stops over Sonic's house with gauze all over his head, telling Amy he'll start seeing the results soon. He also drops off a check for the remainder of the donation money, telling her she should use it to spoil her kids. Lightning presents Manic with a gift of his own, a toupee which he can use until his hair grows back in full.
Fun Facts:
We learn that Manic has been gluing fake spikes to his head to conceal his baldness for nearly 20 years. Lightning now has 2 piercings on his left ear similar to Manic. We learn that Lucy has an aunt named Vicki.
