The Best Moment Of Clone High's Raisin Rock Opera Isn't Musical, But It Is About Getting Thrice Laid

Clone High's eighth episode breaks from its normal practice of spoofing teen dramas to spoof an equally self-important genre: the rock opera! Rock star Larry Hardcore visits the school to warn the students against drug use, ending on a whimsical joke.

Cut to: Clone High getting infected with raisin fever, the students' craving for raisins stoked by The Pusher, serving them up by the scoop. The students' raisin-fueled rebellion builds to a climactic showdown between parents and teens around Principal Scudworth's fence.

Unbeknownst to everyone, Joan's bought The Pusher's whole supply, and when she sets it on fire at the fence, the fumes make the parents a lot less uptight. As they're experiencing their own psychedelic awakening, The Pusher is unmasked.

"I opened for the California Raisins on their '89 tour," he resentfully explains. "But these days the only dancing fruits kids want to see are the Backstreet Boys. The point is, the Raisin Council needed a new marketing campaign to attract teens." Smoking raisins doesn't get you high at all!

Or maybe that's just true for everyone except Gandhi.

Gandhi ends up in an alternate dimension.

There Gandhi meets Geldemore, who's about to take Gandhi on "a magical journey into [his] subconscious." Geldemore is a hunkeycorn: "Half hummingbird, half donkey, and half unicorn." She gives Gandhi some enchanted trail mix, but he's distracted by the idea of "a donkey and a hummingbird Doing It."

Gandhi goes on a mystical quest -- and though the perils are grave, the rewards are enticing: after Gandhi is swallowed by a cat, he meets the conjoined Olsen twins, who reward him with all their riches, including a precious amulet he can use to save a lady in distress: "Save the princess, Gandhi, and she will thrice lay you."

Gandhi likes the sound of being thrice laid, so he dispatches Daniel Feldspar, the stereotypical Australian dragon, and claims his reward -- and then, we get the moment that makes Geldemore one of Clone High's most memorable and most quotable characters.

It's a relief to learn that Geldemore is kind of seeing somebody anyway, since a hunkeycorn this willing to help a teenaged clone open his doors of perception deserves to be laid at least thrice.
