Aliens in America: Smutty Books (Episode 16)

See, now this is what I'm talking about. A hilarious look (and poke) at censorship and book banning, with a nod to "Superbad"? Bring it on.

Well it can't be. It's a dover classic.

When Justin hears from the town "moral authority" Sandy Shermer that "Madame Bovary" is dirty, he puts down the Cliffs Notes and picks up the text to find the smut. Mme. Bovary's sexy adventures reveals that Justin's a bit of an artist. As a child, he drew rainbows. As a teenager, he drew big titty ladies. For serious. We see quite a few examples of his work. I mean, a lot. Just pages and pages of ladies (and the ocasional building) with ginormous knockers. When Franny and Gary happen to find his illustrated "The Adventures of Madame Bovary", Justin takes off.

Raja suggests they check out Planned Teenhood, though their desire to convert Raja to Christianity while they make Justin reborn doesn't suit any of them. Raja isn't much help, having little experience with sexy feelings of his own, so Justin is doomed to suffer, feeling like a pervert. Thank goodness Gary comes across an old copy of "Swiss Family Robinson" (shoved in box of books Franny is determined to remove from the house) to remind him that Justin is totally normal. It runs in the family -- while Justin has his drawings, Gary dotted the center of all the O's in "Swiss Family Robinson" to make them look like boobs. Ha!

Claire decides to exploit the panic and the ignorance of her own mother, which has resulted in getting a ton of books banned at school, when she tells Franny that "Pride and Prejudice" is full of sex. The plan works until Raja, who's actually read the book, tells Franny there's no sex at all. Franny checks for herself and, discovering that while the book is a bit long and borig, busts Claire and Sandy Shermer. Sandy's demise is inevitable, in any case, as she tries to get the school to ban the Bible. I know!
