Is he allowed to call up an episode of MST3k on YouTube and point madly at the screen?

Well it's out now though Bailey doesn't seem to want to accept it just yet. While King may not be able to reveal his human name I do wonder if he'll be allowed to drop hints that could allow Bailey or certain others (assuming she talks to them about this) to figure it out.

Bailey, I was a man
tried to take Fox one day
Then Pete showed and turned me this way
Bailey, oooOoooOOOoooo,
I don't want to go back
But this plot is out of whack

Frank, try and go back to Heraldic Majesty, there you can barely see he has his ring on, and if you go back just one more you can clearly see it on his finger,i doubt he would take it off himself.

OOooh, this is getting better and better!
Good show Rick!

I'll admit though, I don't see a favorable end to this unless we see some loophole or outside intervention.I mean:
King stays dog: They both become beholden to the blue one, possibly battling friends to fight in the cosmic game?
King becomes Joel: Maybe Pete hot air balloons off but then relationship w Bailey gets SUPER awkward.

Best outcome: Bailey accepts it, King and Bailey tell Pete to shove off, and Pete turns out to have been bluffing or Kitsune lets King use his boon to stay a dog.

Forgot to mention how adorable Bailey is looking today. From the way her eyes look serious in the first panel and way she just sits down and gives up in the last panel, everything about her today is just adorable. X3

Oh... YIKES! King, sometimes the best choice is to keep thy trap SHUT!

But, since you said something, here's a few possible results:

1) Bailey really can't believe it; King remains a Corgie; Pete is punished for his actions.

2) Bailey *does* believe it, but she's so happy, she doesn't care one way or the other.

3) Bailey screams in disgust at the thought that they did or could have or were planning to... fainting dead away, never to remember this evening as but a weird nightmare.

4) Pete changes King back to Human form, and Bailey runs away in fright, etc..

5) Pete changes King back to a Human form, and Bailey yells out "I WANT A DIVORCE!... AND CHILD SUPPORT!"

6) The Dallas "Bobby Ewing" moment to Pam.. "It's all a dream!"

Bailey got upset, she can be really dangerous, and somebody already knows how. ;) Keep taking over Pete! But, there it is, King's frustration made the truth come out, but that's the worst way to tell it, looks like you're delirious... Now, probably Pete is going to take the word about that, giving his version of the truth (maybe also under Bailey's force). :P Unfortunately for you, Bailey, you're already awake. :|
Can't wait to see what's going to happen. :D

It has been shown how deeply King loves Bailey(& vice versa), so most likely she accept the fact that he used to be human and they will keep their relationship going.

Now, the real problem is how King is going to explain this to Fox. Despite the fact that Joel(King) tried to kidnap Fox, King has developed a really close friendship with him and is therefore afraid of telling Fox for risk of losing his best friend. :(

Shouldn't that be

Nobody loves me...


Heck, that's a better rhyme than the original!
I could have wrote that, but the "he's just a poor, though he looks like a corgi." part would not have made an iota of sense.

Also, the original song made a rhyme with "boy" and "family", along with "me" and "monstrosity", so I don't see how your version is more fitting.

You don't need no credit card to ride this train. Choo choo.

What worries me about the suddenness of King's admittance is the fact that it implies that Pete already has a stranglehold on King- he's basically a sitting duck now.
