House of Buggin'

Bug Boy in the shower. Using what looks like a brillo pad, Bug Boy starts rubbing his skin, and ewwww! Big chunks of unconvincing-looking skin peel away from his face. I flash back to the hallucination from Poltergiest and remember that was much scarier. Chunks of skin hit the floor of the shower as Bug Boy molts and tears at himself. The creepy music plays. Bug Boy smiles.

Full moon. Bo Duke is in the barn, putting huge metal blades on some farm implement. Why is he always handling huge and dangerous-looking blades? Cheekbones offers Bo Duke a hand. "That's the best idea I've heard all night!" Bo cheeses. As he's about to climb down the stairs to help, 'Bones hears a weird chittering sound. He turns, and suddenly, Bug Boy is upon him! He leaps onto Cheekbones in his all-black fly threads (see, I work references in, too!), and is thrown back when 'Bones grabs him and tosses him back. Bo Duke hears the commotion and comes upstairs. "Someone in the rafters," Cheekbones explains. Instead of looking up, Bo Duke just looks to the left, ineffectually. They both grab flashlights from thin air and start pointing them around. Cheekbones's flashlight is huge! Don't go getting envious, now, Bo. Bo moves his smaller flashlight around and comes upon Bug Boy with his buggy eyes and scary buggy pallor. Bug Boy leaps onto Bo and knocks him through the wood railing. Bo falls off the upper level of the barn. "Dad!" Cheekbones yells, and now we're in bullet-time slow motion, just like in my favorite computer game, Max Payne. 'Bones leaps over wood planks, hops to the lower level -- still carrying his gargantuan flashlight -- then zips over to where Bo is still falling. He positions himself under Bo as Dad lands all over him. Couldn't he just catch Bo in his arms? Instead, Bo lands right on top of Cheekbones, ass to 'Bones's front, and they stay that way for at least an eternity. Bo wiggles around, making grimacing faces while Cheekbones still holds the huge flashlight. Bo finally gets up with a mighty grunt and a look of regret. They must have landed on top of the huge blades, because the blades are all bent now, from 'Bones's sturdy, supple back. "What just happened?" Bo asks. Cheekbones flashes his mighty, long flashlight. We go to commercial.
