Transcript:
Zebra: I hear you're upset about our new frog neighbors. Larry the frog: Yeah. Me hate slimy amphibians almost as much as me hate you. Zebra: Well, the reason that they're 'slimy' is that they breath through their skin. If their skin isn't moist, they can't do that. Crocodile son: Why are you blow-drying Freddy? Larry the Croc: Ohh, juss styling hair.

Out of the whole sentence about hate, Zebra picks up on the “slimy” part. Brilliance. Then he proceeds to basically tell his “enemy” a way to get rid of him. More brilliance. What is up with him today?

Shame on you Zebra. Or did Freddy attempt to help some crocs sneak into your house and this is your revenge?

Sorry, Larry, but the old saying is “fine as frog’s hair”, not croc’s hair.

“The first true amphibians appeared in the Carboniferous Period, by which time they were already moving up the food chain and occupying the ecological position currently claimed by such animals as crocodiles.” – WikipediaOK Larry. We have witnesses and now we have a motive. Put the anuran down and slowly back away . . .

As a Sarcopterygian, I’m particularly offended by this crime.

Amazing that Larry made the connection between Zeeba’s statement and the hairdryer. Not as dumb after all as I thought.

Is that a chicken bone? Larry’s been eating KFC again.

Zebra! What have you done?!

Breathe thru their skin? Hm.Can’t say I don’t learn anything by reading the comics!

I don’t think Zeeba neighba was trying to get Freddy killed. I think he was trying to edumacate Larry about amphibians. Larry isn’t the brightest crayon in the box. He probably didn’t think Larry would be able to have an idea like that. I mean really. Look at his history!

I think Larry has been watching too much Sgt. Frog (Free cookie for whoever gets that)

Mr. Frog will have quite a tale by the time Larry gets through with him. But what I can’t figure out is how Bob will die.
