Description

This week's poodle episode sees the picture of teenage perfection obliterated by perversion. It's jawbreaker time, baby.

The meanest, coolest, hottest girls in Reagan High School play their annual birthday morning prank on their friend Liz Purr, but things go awry when Liz chokes to death on a Jawbreaker. Courtney (Rose McGowan) and her henchwomen Julie (Rebecca Gayheart) and Marcie (Julie Benz) do their best to cover their tracks, and implicating our queen Fern Mayo (Judy Greer) in the process. They transform her into Vylette (learn it, live it, love it) and fumble their way through a criminal investigation led by Judy's sister Pam Grier.

Kate and Brodie talk their very different relationships to the film, the "80s does 50s" style, fellating an icepop, Rose McGowan's feud against Can't Hardly Wait, the links to Do Revenge and The Donnas.
