Later in the season, there's a James Bond parody in which Stan squares off against the vile Black Villain who fatally shot the secret agent's newlywed wife. In his quest for revenge, Stan teams with a former nemesis, the Tearjerker, to track down the killer. The season ended on a stellar note as Klaus discovers his original human body, but Stan refuses to allow him to switch back, so Klaus steps into Stan's body and Stan is rendered a fish.
