I'm wicked excited about it! Finally an episode where Wilt's role will be fairly big. I hope the stuff he does to distract Frankie and Herriman is crazy and weird. Wilt is always so with it. It'd be cool to see him act weird. And I hope Frankie isn't mean to him at the end like in Squeeze the Day.

I mean, you sorta expect Mr. Herriman to be a stick-in-the-mud, but Frankie is usually cool about things. I just hope that "Squeeze the Day" and "Neighbor Pains" have not set a trend of her getting really ticked-off at Wilt and yelling at him all the time and basically treating him like he's a toddler. I'd rather see no interaction between the two of them at all than for her to really be on his case all the time, and him to be so cowed down by her. pitbulllady

I'm sure he'll try something that WILT would find outrageous which, in terms of something Bloo would do, would be fairly tame. No offense, I love Wilt, but I think he's just incapable of really doing something that would get him in true trouble. I haven't seen "Squeeze the Day", but I don't remember Frankie getting mad at Wilt in "Neighbor Pains". Can someone refresh me as to what happened?

I haven't seen "Squeeze the Day", but I don't remember Frankie getting mad at Wilt in "Neighbor Pains". Can someone refresh me as to what happened? In "Neighbor Pains", Wilt needed to distract Frankie from noticing that Mac and Bloo were trying to get into "Old Man Rivers" house to retrieve the adoption forms that Bloo had thrown at the old man. Wilt started with that little stretchy-moves show-off thing he does(like in "Room With a Feud"), calling out to Frankie, "Hey, Frankie, I'm goin' over to Old Man Rivers, and I'm not SOR-REEE"! Frankie gets mad, yells "Come here, YOU!" and takes off after him. She's furiously pursuing Wilt all around the yard, with him going, "sorry, sorry, sorry", the whole time. It certainly seemed that if Frankie had been able to catch Wilt(which is a very big IF, there, considering how fast he can run), she was going to really let him have it, and I dont' mean that in a good way! As much as I would like to think that Wilt would not do something to get himself in big trouble, I can't help but wonder if at some point in his past, he HAS done something really bad, and that this is in part why he's now so helpful and apologetic-he's trying to make up for that. He apparently did something pretty awful involving jellyfish in "Squeeze the Day", since Frankie was REALLY mad at him in that episode, and whatever he did got the whole Foster's household permanently banned from the beach! pitbulllady

Yeesh, I can't believe that Wilt, of all people, somehow got them banned from the beach. So far, unless I've missed an episode or I'm mistaken, even Bloo hasn't been able to get the entire household banned from someplace, has he?

So far, unless I've missed an episode or I'm mistaken, even Bloo hasn't been able to get the entire household banned from someplace, has he? I think that this was supposed to be why there was that whole scene with Wilt and Frankie, and her yelling at him about whatever it was he did-Frankie had intentionally left BLOO at the house and not told him about the planned trip to the beach, because BLOO usually IS the one causes trouble. Naturally, Frankie would assume that if he'd been along with them, he would have done something bad to ruin everyone's trip to the beach. Instead, the person everyone would have LEAST suspected to have caused trouble wound up being the one who DID-Wilt. That scene seems to have established Wilt as a "problem child" in Frankie's mind, anyway, since any interaction between the two of them since has been rather negative. That's why I'm hoping that "Bus The Two of Us" will break that trend, at least. pitbulllady

(ESPECIALLY when it's Bloo's fault, that is) I know this made no sence, but it's true. XD

I'm fine with it in Squeeze The Day, since she has the right to be a little miffed about losing yet another chance to actually have fun... but I WON'T be fine with it if she snaps at him again in this episode, especially considering that SHE'S the one who left the keys in the ignition. I agree, Frankie should just let it go by now. I'll be very upset if such an otherwise wonderful girl becomes tainted because of this

If he's asking for it, let her snap. And whether or not Frankie leaves the keys in the ignition, if Bloo steals the bus, that's on him, not her.

Did you know that in most US states, if you leave your keys in the ignition, and your vehicle is stolen, and then wrecked or never recovered, your auto insurance WILL NOT cover it? Guess why-it's YOUR fault! It's like placing your tv set and stereo out at the curb/roadside while you clean up the dust that gathered behind it, then going to get it and it's gone-what would you expect? Like it or not, Frankie DID leave the keys in the ignition, AND left the bus outside at the curb on a public street, so by law, she's still responsible for the bus getting taken, even though she obviously did not leave the keys there on purpose. The insurance company and law enforcement would consider this "negligence" on her part. Besides, if Wilt did not leave the keys in the ignition, and Wilt did not take the bus without asking, and Wilt did not even KNOW who did, HOW is he "asking for it", with regards to Frankie going off on him again? Wilt is not a little kid, or a dog or some other non-human animal, but an ADULT. He's older than Frankie is! He's not stupid, nor is he naive and basically "less" than Frankie in terms of his intellectual capabilities or moral judgement. For her to belittle him and put him down like she did in "Squeeze the Day" would be the equivalent of ME going off like that on another employee, like the janitor or another teacher, at the school where I work, and I have absolutely NO right whatsoever to treat another adult like that, ESPECIALLY not in front of others! I wouldn't even treat a child like that, as bad as they can get to me sometimes; if I did, I would have been fired a long time ago! pitbulllady

Woooooooooooo!!! Go PBL, you rock!!!!!!
Ooh, I just thought of something else. In Infernal Slumber, my second favorite character, Cheese, gets this heroic moment where he stops Terrence from shouting "Mom!!" by jumping on his face, and I was all like, "Alright!! Woooo!! Go Cheese!!!!" I really hope Wilt gets a heroic wooooooo-worthy moment in this episode!!

Ack, sorry to all the mods for posting a talkback in the wrong section before...especially when there already was one. That's all deleted now!
This, personally, was one of my favorites from all of the new episodes that have been coming out recently. Wilt was certainly the star of the show in this one and his frantic attempts to hide the truth from Frankie were hilarious! Not to mention his vehement "That's IT for the Wilt-man!!!" and other such lines like it had me rolling. And, while I was sort of expecting this episode to go the way of 'Imposters...' at one point, I really liked how it ended.
But there were tons of great moments to be had by the other characters. Eduardo, Coco and Goo (who wasn't as over the top in this episode as she had been in the past) made nice cameos. And Bloo and Mac had some great exchanges as well. All together, this episode had it all! It definitely lives up to all the hype!
And Japanese speaking Bloo? ROFL!!!

Well, I just saw it! At least now I know how Wilt got involved...and it was MAC who pursuaded him to cover for them! Poor Wilt, though, he was on the verge of having a stroke or something by the time the bus got back(followed by every law enforcement vehicle in the Pacific Northwest); he is SO not good at lying! Coco displayed her, uh, acting talent(as in "One False Movie)once again in an attempt to help Wilt, pulling the old Ferris Bueller "thermometer on the lightbulb" trick. Goo shows up again at Coco's request, which does little to help Wilt's nerves any, and I have to hand it to Bloo for creative genius when it comes to compensating for his lack of height for driving!
And was that ARTHUR DENT trying to hitch a ride to Magrathea? I only got to see what the sign had on it, but didn't get a look at the face, so somebody help me out here! In any case, I am LOVIN' all these "Hitchhiker's Guide" references, Craig and Co.! I didn't even think about at the time, but the whole matress thing could be yet-another reference. Man, Douglas Adams would so love this show!
I hope that poor Mr. Herriman is OK, HE is gonna need the aspirin, though, instead of Coco, and somebody better pick up some Xanex and some Verapamil for Wilt while they're at it!
At least Goo finally figured out that Mr. Herriman is NOT a "badger", though.
Great episode, very funny-lots of references, pretty funny seeing Coco's sick act and kinda funny and scary at the same time watching Wilt totally go to pieces...and Bloo being Bloo, as usual.
