The two remaining puppets learn about eating healthy, but things go awry when they receive a mysterious phone call.

Why it matters

A surreal puppet horror that twists children’s show tropes into unsettling psychological dread.

  • Continues the series’ signature blend of whimsical puppetry and creeping existential terror.
  • Explores the theme of control and information manipulation through the lens of dietary advice gone wrong.
  • Perfect for fans of uncanny valley puppetry and shows like “The Muppets” meeting “Black Mirror.”
  • The unsettling atmosphere builds on practical effects and off-kilter visuals that linger long after the episode ends.
