And the Razzy for worst actor in a tragically comedic downfall goes to……. NO, the Judges have ruled that even though Wicket’s performance was terrible, he was disqualified for being such a jerk! Maybe if he asks nicely, Lupin will give him a few gum balls to make his beak feel SO much better.
I’m sure everyone will live happily ever after—Wicket will be pampered (could you resist spoiling a non-releasable owl rotten if you had the chance—and I’m sure Wicket in captivity is a huge suck-up), the moles will go back to their own territory and live peaceably as before when Montague explains that he was “not himself”, and peace between cats, mice, guinea pigs, raccoons and possums will be maintained.
A biologist friend friend of mine and a real life owl rescuer told me that owls are (in her words) “the absolute dumbest of the raptors”, she laughed and told me “A brick might be slightly smarter!” Wicket needs to retire to the refuge and stay there!

Yeah, Wicket, the fields don’t have heating pads. Really think about what you’d be “winning” out there.

Well, I’m glad that’s over. Although Wicket seems to be a LOT more into going to Quinn Wildlife than he was earlier this week.

It’s illegal to turn a owl into a pillow, isn’t it? Just checking …

It appears that she’s an unusual human who has learned (or perhaps never forgotten) how to talk to the animals.

Wicked Wicket is a demanding old cuss. He deserves to be back in custody.
Now, to resolve the mole madness.

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile
Sophititi: So now we know how to use the colored gems to represent gumballs that Lupinium’s descendant accidentally spilled.
Maat-Tilda: And the moles all accidentally tripped over.
Wicket: This is all very fascinating, but how did you get ahold of these stories from the future.
Tillie: The Royal Procurers have ways of which we know not.
Wicket: And what about that n’er do owl who happens to be my namesake?
Adobe Style: I understand he went back to the rescue farm and fared better than he deserved.
Soph: True. There is a song that was written to commemorate the occasion by ABBA:
Friday night and a crescent moon
The battle will be over soon
The moles defeated by gumballs
The kit and kitten are safe
You need a vet for your face
Tommy and Soph’s woman is there to serve
Showing you kindness you don’t deserve
You have a setback, but you will be alright
Quinn farm will make things right
When you try to take flight
You are the Drama King
With your schemes
Acting very mean!
Drama King, feeling rad with your heating pad, oh yeah!
You’ll be fed, you’ll be fine, having the time of your life
Ooh, see that owl, let’s all sing
Diggin’ the Drama King!

At any moment the Man and the Woman are going to get curious as to exactly what’s going on in and around their house.

Scoundrel? He’s a mouse hunter, not a nerf herder. He’s much worse than just a scoundrel.

In comic world it’s pretty tough for an owl to find a meal who isn’t one of the beloved characters.

Wicket’s war is over, so easy to see
That mean old scoundrel is no longer free
Listen, please listen, that’s the way it should be
Possums won’t help Wicky, he’s too ornery
You should see
What a lovely, lovely world this’d be
Murderers put away forever, ah hah
It’s so easy
To be scammed by charming dishonesty
Why can’t you and me learn to just not bother?
All the war’s over, so happy to see
Nasty old owl ain’t gonna be free (not gonna be free)
I can’t understand it, so evil to me
How he could attack li’l ’Ziney and Bea
Still don’t like to see him suffer though he deserves to be
As a finale, creatures are finally free

Georgia always ends on a decent note, even for scoundrels like Wicket. I wonder how much more there is to this arc. It has been quite a ride!

So glad that old owl is in good hands- hopefully able to heal his beautiful beak!! If we will have peace, it will be a peace for us all!

She’s on to him. “Let’s get you home” has an implied “under constant supervision with restricted access to the outside world.”
