When Torelei Stripe accuses Frankie of cheating by accessing their various brain parts for talents, Frankie is left even more confused about what to do for the talent show. Luckily, Headmistress Bloodgood presents Frankie with new information about their brain parts and Frankie is hopeful that this might hold the answer. Except Frankie discovers that their brain part is from a disgraced scientist accused of unethical experiments. Plagued with dreams from the scientist's life, Frankie teams up with Draculaura and Clawdeen to discover the truth about their past-and hopefully save Monster High in the process.
