[edit] Plots
[edit] Dumb Luck
Billy seems to be having an unusual amount of bad luck, and Grim is curious as to why. It turns out that when Grim told Billy to throw salt over his shoulder for good luck, he threw pepper instead. This caused a bad-luck snail to creep into his brain, making sure that Billy has bad luck forever. When Grim and Mandy try to get the snail out, it won't let Billy near them. For good luck Billy has the abracadabra triangle.
[edit] No Body Loves Grim
Billy accidentally loses Grim's body at the beach, and takes his detached head home by mistake. While Billy and Mandy search for Grim's body, Grim is mistaken for a bowling ball, a vase, and even a spittoon. Meanwhile, Grim's body is adopted by Endsville's wealthiest family, and becomes popular with upper-class citizens. When Grim finally finds his body, it won't return to him, claiming that it was poorly treated under Grim's control.
