House of Lies - Season 2 Discussion #1: What would YOU like to see in Season 2?

House of Lies - Season 2 Discussion #1: What would YOU like to see in Season 2?

See the title. Just write a blurb about what you'll like to see in a Season 2 episode. Assume that you have unlimited budget and full creative control. Each post should follow off the previous post in terms of continuity. Something like 300 word posts but with imaginary episodes. Feel free to make them as trippy as possible. Remember. Unlimited budget and creative control. You are god.

Let's see how accurate we are when S2 comes out! (or at least what weird scenarios we can come out with)

I'll start the ball rolling.

S201
Musical episode! The Pod are called in to help a struggling theater off-Broadway, who is trying to stage a run of Reefer Madness, and is struggling with an actor shortage problem. They decide to help them out by filling the roles. Doug plays Mary Lane , Clyde plays Jimmy Harper, Marty plays Jesus and Jeannie plays the Lecturer. Oh, and Greg somehow is a dancing monkey in he background.

The rehearsal goes badly (as expected) and the Pod decides to expunge this incident from their memories. But Clyde manages to hold onto a picture of Doug in drag. Again.

What's on episode 2?

love the idea richard. for the thread and the musical.
Doug plays mary lane inspired.

Episode 2.
It's Halloween, and their client is a sweet factory that is dealing with a massive hemorrhage of funds. it is up to the pod to save the sweet factory and therefore Halloween. the episode culminates in the pod arriving back at the office in their outfits of choice, ready for a little trick or treat (or in Clyde and Doug's case just tricks - poor Doug).

outfits include Doug dressed up like Elphaba from Wicked.
Jeannie as Dorothy (from the wizard of oz )
Clyde as a Kitten (without whiskers)
Marty as Donald Trump.

taking ideas on other halloween costumes guys

Season 2 needs an episode where the pod visits hbs. Maybe to woo potential recruits. Doug really misses his alma mater

Hell yes.
i also found that a bit weird that they didn't have one - but i somehow managed to suppress it. every other show has a title sequence (give or take) - very odd that they don't.

vm, dexter, and weeds are my top favorite sequences. it's very weird.. im pretty sure every other show on Showtime has one. it cant be that difficult to come up with even a simple one?
