While researching for the role of Madame Curie at a laboratory, Kelly invents Bleen, a chemical that cures baldness but which has an unwelcome side-effect: it makes men fancy their wives.
One of the sillier episodes of MWC, How Bleen Was My Kelly delivers a few great lines of dialogue ("Peg, if you're going to live here, could you shut your mouth?", "A Pakistani dirt vendor makes more than I do.") but is perhaps just a little too daft for its own good. When Al realises that Bleen isn't perfect, he gets Kelly to try and find an antidote, which results in her using Bud as an unwilling guinea pig for her experiments. With each sip of formula, Bud's appearance digitally morphs, spoofing Michael Jackson's music video for Black and White; what was once cutting-edge technology looks horribly dated, and the pointless Michael Jackson reference will be lost on anyone born this side of the millennium.
