Petey: Maybe if we all just ignore the stinkbug really hard it'll go away! C'mon, everybody! IIGGNNOOOORREEE. Mom: Petey! Alice says there's a stinkbug in here. Where is? Petey: Um, I don't see any bugs. ... Once again, indecision, inertia, and aimless panic result in a happy ending for Petey Otterloop! Alice: Next time, I'm going to put the stinkbug in a jar and name it Dierdre.

I thought that maybe Alice had taken the bug away . . . but next time, she’ll put it in a jar and name it “Dierdre.”
