Transcript:
"Hello, readers... Today we delve into the 'Pearls' mailbag to answer a common question: "Has any 'Pearls' character ever smiled?"" "To answer that question, we asked Pig here to conduct an exhaustive review of the 'Pearls' archives. After weeks of research, Pig here has the answer..." "...No." "No?... Never?... How can that be?" "I dunno. It just hasn't happened." "Fine, then... I'll smile... How hard can it be?" "Monday! Monday! She's not gonna hold!!" "Man the lifeboats!!"<Br>"Fire in the hole!!!" BOOM!!<b>Pearls Programming Note: Join us next week for a very special Sunday strip: "Coping With the Death of an Unloved One." "He never should have tried it." "Can't say that I'll miss him." "Beer, anyone?"

That’s not really a smile though. More of an evil smirk. Looks more like he is yelling anyways.

Rat resurrects and smiles again, almost 7 years in the future. But because of this episode, his ‘future smile’ is forced and unnatural.
