In Secrets of Playboy Episode 3, titled, "The Bunnies and the Clean-Up Crew," former Playboy Bunny and "Bunny mother" PJ Masten made a bombshell claim. PJ alleged that she was forced to be a part of the Playboy "cleanup crew" and basically cover up the rape and abduction of two Playboy Bunnies.

How did this happen? Masten explained that she was able to hire new Bunnies as a "Bunny mother." (Think of it like a Girl Scout troop leader, except for Playboy Bunnies.) Sometime during the 10-year span that Masten worked at the mansion, (from 1972 to 1982), she hired two sisters to become Playboy Bunnies. One night, the two baby Bunnies went out dancing and met Don Cornelius, the host of Soul Train at the time.

According to Masten's account, the two new Bunnies went to a party at Don's house and weren't heard from for three days. (Remember, cell phones weren't a thing yet!) Allegedly, the two Bunnies (they are unnamed in this recollection) were raped, beaten, drugged, and abused during those three hellish days. When one of the Bunnies managed to escape, Masten was one of those tasked with being the "cleanup crew."
