Plot
Edit
Master Shake turns black after being bitten by a radioactive black man when confronting a construction company who is dumping nuclear waste at the house next door. After rapping and showing off his high-jumping skills, Shake reveals he is black, and Frylock creates a test: to see if Shake will swim in Carl's pool. Shake can't, thus proving he's black.
Frylock tries to make Shake white again by drinking milk, watching a hockey game, sniffing avocados and swimming in Carl's pool, but nothing works. Frylock just decides to paint Shake white and cut off his long hair. Meatwad's doll Boxy Brown tells Shake to embrace his black self, and Shake goes outside to play some basketball, but Shake begins to gradually worsen at basketball, his hair and his grill falls out, and he becomes white again. Frylock reveals that he created a "blaccine" and injected it into his orange soda. Shake says he loves Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street band, talks about his 401K, and asks when The Simpsons come on.

TriviaEdit
