- Out darn spot - I heard this Macbeth reference and laughed to myself. At first I thought it was just a standalone reference thrown into the episode for amusement but after paying attention to the episode I realized that the whole story is a Macbeth parallel.
The episode revolves around setting up Brain to make it look like he stole something. Though not murder is a children's show. It started with a fortune telling scene (though only one, not three witches) which led to a prophesy. From there the whole episode is based off of guilt and the fight with covering up their crime. The title of the episode should be the first give away "MacFrensky" and they threw in a random Scottish character (Thunder Macduff) to round out the theme. The episode ended with Ratburn quoting Shakespeare.
