Don't try to lay no boogie woogie on the king of rabbit holes! In search of the origins of a favorite song, Harrison leads Cindy on a manic trip down memory lane that begins with a blues singer in England and ends with a puppet show in Portland. Along the way, they encounter Dolly Parton, Sonic the Hedgehog, Rod Stewart, Gul Dukat, and more. Oh, and Dr. Robotnik saves Elton John's life at one point. Really. Also, Cindy drinks spicy Coca-Cola and defends clowns.
