You know what does happen? Frankenstein, because he’s a pathetic, selfish, juvenile brat, is horrified by his creation when it awakens. For one thing, that famous scene where the monster comes to life and Frankenstein joyfully shouts “IT’S ALIVE”? Yeah, that doesn’t happen in the book. If you haven’t read the book, you should know that it’s actually quite different from most of its adaptations. I don’t know if I’ve ever mentioned this before, but Frankenstein is basically my favorite book that isn’t part of a series. If “parody” is the right word, because this episode isn’t exactly full of laughs. Well, obvious Frankenstein parody is obvious. Ice King is just upset that she gave away all of his stuff. Her cape, the only thing left of her, floats back to Ice King’s castle, and PMW’s disembodied voice echoes from… somewhere, telling Ice King that she’ll always be his wife. However, PMW leaves during the fight to return her body parts to their respective owners. Finn and Jake then show up with blindfolds, so that PMW won’t make them faint again, and they quickly take down Ice King. It doesn’t help, PMW is just disturbed by this. Ice King tries to cheer her up by telling her that he made her with his favorite parts of all of his favorite princesses. This makes PMW cry and lock herself in her room. Even when Finn and Jake pull a Perseus and try looking at her through a mirror instead of directly at her, they still faint. Whenever PMW doubts her normality, Ice King is quick to tell her that he thinks she’s beautiful, but since everyone else either faints at the sight of her and gets sick at the sight of her, PMW has a hard time believing this. I have to admit, if you can ignore the fact that she’s sewed together from stolen body parts, her relationship with Ice King is pretty cute. But still, what the hell, man? Finn and Jake faint at the sight of her, so Ice King and Princess Monster Wife continue about their day as usual. He actually treats her quite nicely throughout the episode. And unlike Frankenstein, Ice King isn’t disgusted by the monster he created. Except the body parts he stole came from people who are still alive.

Ice King denies having stolen the parts at first, but then reveals that he did in fact steal them, so that he could create Princess Monster Wife. Of course they suspect Ice King, so they go confront him. That’s how it works with her, right? Anyway, the princesses ask Finn and Jake for help and they promise to get their parts back. Oh wait, this is Bubblegum we’re talking about, so I guess she’s just younger, not dead. Princess Bubblegum is missing half of her head. Seriously, Hot Dog Princess is missing half of her body. Or, depending on what body part was taken, dead. If it were me I’d probably be screaming and crying in horror, but whatever. This episode begins with a bunch of the princesses in Ooo waking up to find various parts of their body missing and seeming mildly upset about this.
