Title Text: housepets will be right back after this balance breakfast

C'mon, y'all, it's neat to see familiar places from a different perspective.

Spo! Please! I was kind of wondering where this was going to go since I figured it would be pretty hard if not impossible for him to actually go to Europe.

Spo is not as bright as he thinks. The only question is was Spo actively being deceptive, or did he think this was basically the same?

Ok yeah, that makes sense... can’t really blame you Spo, I mean we totally could and probably will but... I totally understand you. Except I don’t.

The truth is revealed
and everyone squealed
as they worked out the trick.
The little sod lied,
he’s been right outside;
treating all like they’re thick.
He’s in utter disgrace
as they all lose their grace
at how he’s wasted their time.
That’s why no Sabrina;
he’ll get off cleaner
and not pay for this crime...

I'd be shocked if it were the former, tbh

I quite liked this arc; short, simple and featuring a few characters who aren't showcased that often. :P

Yeah, it's kinda fun when some of the secondaries get to take the stage.

All bcomes clear, I think in Spos mind these places are one and the same. That being the case I'm intrigued as to where he went waterskiing, Or was it a staged photto I wonder?

So Spo greatly exaggerated/lied about his adventures? I would say I'm shocked, but...

I dunno. A year touring restaurants sounds pretty exotic ... and he did meet girls. ;)

I wouldn't be surprised if he left a few mouselings running around, too.

Speaking of... so what about Eloise?

But then... you lied to all of us, Spo! :| And all seems done for your ego and for your social profiles, and to fill your blog... :roll: Good that Fido unmasked you due to a place. :) At the end, you just spent one year in some restaurants in an area of the town... A random pizza shop isn't an embassy, Spo. ;) Now I wonder how you did the picture with the two babes on water skiis, though. :P

Spo is thinking like a typical mouse.

Wonder how Squeak evolved from that mind set? =P

I am thinking Spo better run and run fast because I can see an angry mob forming on him and chasing him away for another 2 years. XD

A small arc for a small charater.
Actually, is there an arc smaller than this one?

Rick doesn't seem to do many "one-shots" anymore.

I think for the most part they are replaced by guest weeks. But don't take my word for it.

A squirrel, a bobcat and and an amphibian to be named later.

Now that you bring it up, dr., cold-blooded critters aren't at all well represented in the regular Housepets cast - Fluffy, Kathy, and maybe some of the Infernals. No amphibians, ether, just reptiles.

I don't know about that. Fluffy was a pet and just doing her thing. The first time we saw Gale she had several skulls around her.

Now, her owner was a villain. He even looked like the guy on the neighborhood watch poster.

So he lied? Spo, not cool,
When you're caught you look like a fool.
Be thankful you didn't meet a cat,
But seriously, be better than that.

He went on a tour of restaurants, you see,
That's the same as an embassy,
He didn't go on a backpacking hike,
But he didn't meet food he didn't like.

He came to Babylon Gardens because he wanted to go to school in America because he didn't like his chances with the Japanese entrance exams and needed a job so he got one working for Earl.
