One wonders what demon(s) Kent Torokvei was hiding when he told the Real Genius heroes, “You’re all just a bunch of degenerates.”

As you’ll recall, ever-insightful Chris Knight asked, “We are? What about that time I found you naked with that bowl of Jello?”

Kent famously defended, “I was hot and I was hungry.”

But what if there was more to Mr. Torokvei’s perversion? What if Kent’s seemingly casual flirtation with the so-called Sexualité de Gélatine was a hint of a larger, more insidious fascination. Twenty-two years later, Kent might be a scientist at Kraft Foods, tainting untold batches of gelatin, pudding, and no-bake pie products with additives unknown.
