Before trick-or-treating got underway, Strudwick and his sister Thunder were put in what Megyn described as their “Halloween prison” (below) – a seemingly inescapable formation of gates, crates, and chairs.

The Strudwick File: Wait, What’s That?

The Strudwick File: The Bitter Reality of the Bitter Apple Spray
Not only does Strudwick eat soda cans, books, and bike reflectors, but he also chews on his sister Thunder’s ears. To make him stop, Megyn tried spraying Thunder’s ears with a bitter apple spray.

The Strudwick File: Lunch Lessons, Part I
