W:
W is an ideal employee. He has been working diligently for more than 40 years as what a perfect clerk should be. He honors work and sees that it is the civilized alternative to the caveman’s struggle for existence. However, he would not mind to keep his position at work by any effort – and any mean. Unfortunately, he sometimes feels the need to stop working for moments to honor his nature calls. This makes W so sad!
C:
C conquers the feeling of loneliness, in this cold world, by diving into the warm nostalgia of commercials, black and white films, and shopping to make tasty meals. However, the modern age doesn’t let him enjoy his shallow life. Ah! What a cruel world!
A Soap Opera from the Fifth Dimension! In this episode we meet Harry Mann, a sinister Simian with an injured Banana that needs medical attention, STAT! Sassy Nurse Hasenpfeffer Corndog admits the injured fruit while Hospital Handyman, Dick Glue, cleans up the compost from yesterday’s harvest. In the operating room, Dr. Bean Pootin beams-in to administer a dose of golden elixir to the patient with the help of horny Nurse Corndog. The dashing Dr. Wormhole comforts Harry Mann in the waiting room before helping himself to a spoonful of Nurse Corndog, still steamy from her O.R. romp with Bean Pootin, while Dick Glue lurks in the shadows, licking his wounds and plotting revenge.
