1707 - Frank is in a Coma

Written by: Dave & John Chernin

Directed by: Imani Hakim

Airing as Episode ?? on ___________, 2025

What we know:

  • Mac, Charlie, and Dennis are paired together at an event that puts them in tuxes:
  • Frank (in a coma) is...made of cake?

Predictions:

  • The Paddy's scene we have is the cold open, in which the Gang end up connecting two pieces of news/media to concoct the idea of whatever scheme is taking place
  • Assuming "Coma Frank" being made of cake is part of the plot and not a very creative props move, that this idea comes from/is a joke on the "Is it Cake?" phenomenon 
  • The guys are at some kind of fundraiser/charity event for Frank's "coma", perhaps connected to one of his businesses in an attempt to milk some sympathy money out of wealthy investors
  • The guys get roughed up somehow, hence losing their bowties at some point between the event and Charlie's apartment

Questions:

  • What is actual Frank doing this episode if they needed cake to be lying in the hospital bed?
  • Why would Dee need a fake version of herself? Is she connected to (what seems like) the A plot? Or is she inspired by Frank having a fake version of himself and going off on a completely separate plot?
  • Will the Gang get to eat Coma Frank in the episode? Or is the sliced cake in the photo a post-wrapping moment?
