A pitch-perfect parody of the Sid and Marty Krofft children's shows (HR Pufnstuf, Lidsville), set in the psychedelic "Altered State of Drugachusettes." The sketch features a cast of colorful fantasy characters openly celebrating drug use in the style of a saccharine 1970s kids' TV show. The villain, Prof. Ellis D. Trails (a spoof of Charles Nelson Reilly's Lidsville character), is having a very bad trip, while a character named HallucinaJenny improbably serves as the voice of reason. The segment ends with sage advice for the kids at home: "Only take what you can handle and always know your dealer."

This sketch is a loving and detailed parody of Sid and Marty Krofft's surreal 1970s children's television shows, particularly HR Pufnstuf and Lidsville. The production design and character movements closely mirror the originals. Tom Kenny (later famous as the voice of SpongeBob SquarePants) plays Prof. Ellis D. Trails, whose name is a play on "Ellis D." (LSD) and "trails" (a drug hallucination effect). The character is a spoof of Charles Nelson Reilly's flamboyant villain from Lidsville. The sketch is from the "Oh, You Men" episode (S3E3), which Vulture ranked highly in their all-sketch ranking.
