Transcript:
Pastis: We need a plot twist. Something to shake up the strip. Something big. Goat: Ooh. You mean like a death or marriage or.... Rat: I'm pregnant. Goat: Not what I was expecting. Rat: Hey, if you thought I was moody before.
Anybody remember “Bloom County” when Rosebud got pregnant. Everyone was shocked because they always thought she was a he. Then the daddy wound up being the rabbit Hodge-Podge!
