Frankenstein, MD

In this new spin on Mary Shelley's classic "Frankenstein," soon-to-be MD, Victoria Frankenstein (Anna Lore) has decided to document her scientific experiments in her university's laboratory. In this episode, she explores electrophysiology with help from her subject/co-host Iggy DeLacey (Steve Zaragoza) and with some rather shocking results.

After last week's minor mishap, Victoria's discussion of the uses of synthetic blood is sidetracked when Dr. Abraham Waldman stops by the lab for a rather serious chat about bioethics. Victoria remains stubborn in her optimistic goals to achieve the scientifically impossible.

Victoria (Anna Lore) is joined by old hometown friends Eli Lavenza (Brendan Bradley) and Rory Clerval (Sara Fletcher) in a voluntary drug trial. Meanwhile, Victoria carries out her own drug experiment, using her friends as unwitting subjects in demonstrating the difference between paralytic and anesthetic drugs.

In this week's round of experimentation, Victoria (Anna Lore) and Iggy (Steve Zaragoza) investigate the effects of electromagnetic induction. Meanwhile, Eli (Brendan Bradley) checks in to report the side effects he is experiencing in the ongoing drug trial.

Despite Dr. Waldman's (Kevin Rock) skepticism, Victoria (Anna Lore) and Iggy (Steve Zaragoza) manage to successfully utilize optogenetics in this experiment to manipulate their lab rat's movements. However, when the trial eventually takes a turn for the tragic, Victoria and Iggy are forced to take immediate action.

In a hasty attempt to save their lab rat, Victoria (Anna Lore) and Iggy (Steve Zaragoza) have cryopreserved him, and now, armed with a plan, it's time to bring him back to life. Their attempt, however, is interrupted by a low-spirited Rory (Sara Fletcher) checking in with her drug trial progress.
