Steve's Astral Projection Is A Hallucination! American Dad Review "The Wondercabinet"
28A review and theory video of the American Dad! episode, "The Wondercabinet," where I posit that Steve's astral projection is happening inside his own head.
In "The Wondercabinet," Steve becomes obsessed with new age mysticism after becoming a fan of the radio show of the same name. He thinks that he can travel to different times and places in space through vibrating his pineal gland, which the radio show host calls "Astral Projection." Eventually the host, Palmer Elymas, goes missing and Steve thinks that "Big Fluoride," a conspiracy that Palmer made up, kidnapped him. When Steve & friends find Palmer in his apartment, they find out that he just had a toothache and he is a big phony. Steve lashes out at Palmer and Stan. Then, he astral projects into various times and places.
In the "B" plot, Roger drives the van for an adult movie production. He tries to climb the ranks of the industry, but his protégé experiences success instead of him. He gets a shot to perform, but he gets stuck in the bathroom while wetting his hair.
