If he’s so brokenhearted, did he have a funeral for the flea? Did it have a name?
I’m reminded of an episode of ‘The Odd Couple’ where Oscar insisted on holding a funeral for his pet fly (Sol, who he had just swatted into oblivion and named on the spot), much to the consternation of the pet undertaker who refused to refund their money after Felix’s canary Albert proved to be alive.
Sunday school girl, after hearing how the angels told Lot to take his wife and daughters and flee from Sodom, and Mrs. Lot turned into a pillar of salt, asked, “What happened to the flea?”
One flashback showed how Felix and Oscar met on a jury, in another they discovered that they met on one occasion as children when their respective families were hiding out from mobsters in 1920s Chicago. Not really a continuity problem there. However, in some episodes the opening narration referred to them having been childhood friends, which wasn’t exactly accurate.

Old joke::“Where do fleas go in the winter?”“Search me.”“No thanks, I was just asking.”

Fleas don’t look right if you don’t properly preserve the dust mites on them, too.

If I was the taxidermist, I’d “flea” from this one.
