What's wrong with teenage girls? The fate of all adolescent girldom ends up in the hands of five historical and fictional teenage girls - gathered in the afterlife to figure it out. This accidental dead girl think tank includes Persephone, Joan of Arc, the Virgin Mary, and Shakespeare's Ophelia and Lavinia. They're focused on unraveling the mystery of the Parthenos: the ancient Greek ghost of all teenage girls everywhere. They fight, they fall in love, they get drunk, and even if you didn’t listen while they were alive - you sure as hell will now that they’re dead.

Episode 3: Several Bags of Funyuns

What starts as a casual chat about whether mythological teenage virgins were murdered or suicidal (you know, normal stuff) spirals into a raw, ferociously uncomfortable group therapy session in hell. Persephone fumbles through trauma PR, Lavinia goes full scorched-earth monologue, Ophelia takes notes like a sad Pinterest board, and Joan of Arc drops a truth bomb so hard it could re-ignite her pyre. Featuring: accidental vending machine massacres, awkward deity-led democracy lessons, and the moment Mary the Virgin tries to figure out what a lesbian is. Bring snacks. Maybe not Funyuns.
