"E" Characters
- E! True Hollywood Story Re-enactment Team: In a sendup of the documentary/news cable TV series, the X-Play offices are depicted as a den of sin and iniquity; one alleged incident in particular is presented in the form of a re-enactment, with actors portraying the roles of co-hosts Adam Sessler, Morgan Webb, and Blair Herter. The three are shown killing an intern named Reggie Stevens while in a drunken haze, because they mistook him for a vampire.

Heads of the characters hammer through daisies;
Break in the sun till the sun breaks down,
And death shall have no dominion.”
