This is a first. An episode with Rod flying solo. The reasons why Mel is not here are revealed in the episode. Where could she be? Rod will make good on an earlier promise when he explains the history and purpose of the Rhinoceros Party. Next, he will introduce us to a new segment of The Absurd, and in doing so, he will take us to Iraq, where a man thought it would be a good idea to buy a lion for him to raise and tame. His plans went awry. Lastly, we’ll learn about a beautiful story involving writer Franz Kafka and a little girl’s missing doll.
