The brother of a notorious serial killer clown works to rehabilitate the family name by inviting small children on light-cycle rides through a VR labyrinth in: **Tron L. Gacy**.

Spoiler alert: it doesn’t go that well.

The starving populace of Panem have little sympathy for their morbidly obese Tributes, as they are forced to participate TO THE DEATH in competitive eating events in **The Huger Games**.

Treebeard, Quickbeam and the rest of the guardians of the sylvan spaces march upon the condos of Isengard Towers, and impress upon their one-time companion Benny, the importance of keeping promises you once made to your friends (especially the ones living with Dutch Elm disease) in **ENT**.
