Episode 2: Medecine Cake is the second album by French nu metal band Pleymo. Released on June 5, 2002, by Epic Records, it was recorded with alternate vocal tracks in French and English languages. The English version of the album was released under the title Doctor Tank's Medicine Cake. The album sold over 50,000 copies.
The musical style of Episode 2: Medecine Cake leans heavily toward hip hop. An alternate English language version of the album was released, although the French-language version of the album contains some lyrics sung in English. The English-language version of the album is also a different mix, deleting the scratching from the song "New Wave", the interlude from "World", and guest vocals from the leader of the French band Wünjo from the "Compact". The French version also features a song not found on the English version, "Casino". Weather this song was recorded with English vocals but never released is still unknown. The album's concept is tied around comic book artwork drawn by vocalist Mark.
When the album was issued in Japan, the import edition featured the song "K-Ra", taken directly from their previous album Keçkispasse, without any changes.
A maxi single was released in 2001 to promote the album, containing the tracks "New Wave", "Tout Le Monde Se Lève", "World", "Ce Soir C'Est Le Grand Soir" and "Kubrick". The same year, the band released a music video for the song "New Wave". The album was released in 2002 on compact disc and vinyl in French language and on compact disc in English language under the title Doctor Tank's Medicine Cake. In Japan, the French-language version of the album included a bonus track, "K-Ra".
