I have a mental image of Stephen drawing the final panel and just laughing to himself about how witty he is. The 5th wall smashing is always the best part.
I’m vaguely aware that there’s a kids show, Bob the Builder. I googled it to see if the theme song might be the reference… eh… faintly possible, but I’ll still be looking for a better fit.

Of course, the joke might be in watching us spin our wheels.

If he was right in the head he would go back to being a lawyer.

What a mouthful in the second the the last panel. Too bad Rat didn’t have a bowling ball to drop onto Stephan’s head.

Is the penultimate panel a riff on lyrics from a song, or a poem? If so, it’s one I can’t place.

Gee Rat, we don’t see what the purpose in telling him that is. We’ve known that all alone.

Rat should have smashed his face in with a bowling ball.

Build-a-Bear has songs on you-tube and (I assume) in its stores. Perhaps the strip is riffing on one of those? They’ve even been compiled onto a CD.

Stephan not being “right in the head” is what makes him so awesome.
So (BEEP) off, Rat.

Even for you, Stephan, this pretty convoluted. I believe you have outdone yourself!

You should have run this strip on a holiday, Stephan. I didn’t get this one at all.

Closing line could be from Morrissey"s “I Like You.” Rat liking Stephen takes breaking the wall to a whole new level.
