Transcript:
Rat: Dude, this Key West vacation was my best idea ever. Pig: Yeah, I - wait! I forgot magipants! Rat: You what? Pig: The pants I sleep in... 'magic pants'... or as I call them, 'magipants'... they are the comfiest sleeping pants of all time! And they are back at home! Abandoned! Rat: dude, shut up. We just flew 3,000 miles to get here. It's not like you can go back and get them. Pig: Are we there yet? Attendant: Again, sir, we just took off.

Not sure any pants are that great.

Hey, if you ever had JUST the right thing to sleep in, you’d know the importance of magipants!

Now why would Pig, who goes around nude all day, need “sleeping pants”?! And where does he come up with the extra round-trip plane fare?

If Pig’s sleeping pants are all curled up as comfortably as he said, he probably doesn’t need to go wake them up.
I used to have running shorts but I gradually found that I couldn’t keep up with them any more and they got away.
And I wish my walking shoes worked better.
Johnny — when you get up from your chair, do you have to change into standing pants?
That must make the day complicated!

Pig should’ve just called Guard Duck and asked him to deliver the pants to him.

My ex-wife used to put some sort of powder into my briefs — turned out it was Miracle Grow…

Pig, maybe that lady who kicked you yesterday would’ve been more receptive if you’d told her that you have “magic pants” in bed.

I’m thinking about the “Celvin and Hobbes” reference here, where Calvin forgot to bring Hobbes with him on vacation and was insisting his parents turn around and go home. Unlike Pig, Calvin didn’t get his way!

Of course, all these helpful suggestions are no good to a fictional fellow like Pig.

Pastis actually sleeps in pants he calls “Magipants.”His wife Staci tried to buy him new ones but they weren’t as good.
