Episode #7: Destination Shiva • Pluto’s Really Great Advertising Agency • To Serve Man

In Pluto’s Really Great Ad Agency, Uncle Pluto convenes a (not-so-)creative team meeting with Biff, Saucey, and Minnie. And what does the President and his Chief of Staff do in To Serve Man when the aliens finally arrive and they are… delicious?!?
