This week, we travel south, to middle-of-nowhere Georgia, and follow a lone Black woman - soul singer Leslie Uggams - as she's stranded at a ramshackle motel owned by Shelley Winters. Throw in a literal Lurch and the titular Elvis-cum-country star Eddie, and you have an especially sleazy slice of southern exploitation. In this episode: racial versus class resentment, the blessings of air conditioning, mechanical malpractice, multiple forms of sexual assault, drunken justice, competing wedding dresses, and slow motion dog breeding.
