Dodgeskull (Monster High)

Dodgeskull is the 64th episode of the Monster High webseries, being part of the Volume 3 originally premiered on December 8, 2011 on YouTube.

Plot
After Manny Taur says he doesn't accept zombies joining his dodgeskull (dodgeball) team, Ghoulia is upset and decides to prove the worth of zombies in the sport by challenging Manny and his team.

Why It's Spooking Mean-Spirited

 * 1) The episode is supposed to show that Manny is supposed to be wrong for not choosing zombies to join his dodgeskull team (as some kind of anti-prejudice moral), however Manny is right for not choosing any zombies since zombies are too slow and weak to throw and dodge balls.
 * 2) * The episode even tries to give a reason to make Manny look like the episode's antagonist with Manny telling Ghoulia directly that all zombies know how to do is attract flies and walk around, but it seemed too forced.
 * 3) Plotholes: Jackson Jekyll and the Cyclops student are not present on Manny's team although they are seen being picked by him at the beginning of the episode. In Jackson's case this was probably because the character is a kind of creator's pet, since he's Frankie's boyfriend.
 * 4) Bad moral: to teach Manny not to despise the zombies, Ghoulia practically wins the game by cheating with the help of her friends Frankie and Lagoona (that weren't in the game).
 * 5) The karma that Manny and his team received also seemed very forced and unnecessary, first that it was only Manny who provoked the zombies, second that the ball knocks them all out, and third that Manny was hit 3 times by the ball being that he didn't deserve it all.
 * 6) Terrible ending: after Ghoulia wins (cheating) Manny and his team look depressed that the zombies now lead the school's dodgeskull team until the end of the year. Then a fly (which is on the finger of one of the zombies) gives an evil laugh in front of Manny and his team.

The Only Redeeming Quality

 * 1) As mentioned above WIS#1 and WIS#3, Manny's action were not totally wrong about not allowing zombies in the gym for a good reason, which is very justified for his karma.
