It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia: 10 Most Controversial Moments
3. Fake Baby Funeral
As well as being possibly the sickest act that Dee participates in, the funeral of her non-existent baby, Barnabas Reynolds, is one of the of the most appalling events to ever grace Paddy’s pub.
Resulting from Dee getting audited by the IRS and being at risk of her scam, claiming that her surrogate pregnancy resulted in a child that is now dependent on her, unravelling. The gang hatch a plan to pretend the baby has died and even go as far as to stage a fake funeral for the benefit of the auditor.
Of course, in typical It’s Always Sunny fashion, the entire affair is a disaster with Dennis’ attempts to make Dee cry causing her eyes to start bleeding during her eulogy and Mac and Charlie trying to rumble the scam by tipping over the coffin, only for a bloodied dog carcass to fall out.
