With all the trouble Wilt, Coco, Edwardo, and Goo went to in order to cover Mac and Bloo, wouldn't it have been easier for Goo to imagine another bus? If she can create IF after IF, a copy of the Foster's bus shouldn't be hard. Oooh...that's a good idea, actually! It's so simple...I'm surprised no one thought of it on the show! However, I'm pretty sure I know why she didn't do it...if Goo had just imagined up a bus instead of all the Herriman look-alike friends, then the episode wouldn't have been as funny, crazy or drawn-out! XD Instead of it being Bloo cruising on a bus, picking up Mac, Mac calling Wilt to tell him to keep it a secret, Wilt freaking out because he's trying to keep the secret from Frankie, Goo coming over to create the 'Herrimans', and then Bloo eventually getting back to Foster's with all of the cars crashed everywhere on the street, It just be Bloo cruising on the bus, Goo solves the problem by creating another bus, BOOM, the episodes' over! LOL!

On the other hand, if Goo had imagined a new bus, it would have been an IF bus, which has some funny possibilities of it's own, like Eduardo freaking out when the bus first speaks, it demanding that everyone wipe their feet before boarding, it's obsession with either following or breaking traffic laws, etc.

If Goo imagined a bus, it'd be an imaginary friend, thus it would have a weird personality. I mean, how awful would it be to be an imaginary friend, but have no mouth, no eyes, and no control over where or where not you might go? T.T The Foster's House is an imaginary friend that eats clothes. XO

Who says it can't have eyes? Practically everything in Pee-wee's Playhouse does.

Perhaps the imaginary bus would look like a combination between the Foster's bus and the magic school bus.

My thoughts exactly. Meanwhile my thoughts on the episode... ELL OH ELL. It was just fantastic, start to finish no questions asked. The rev heads, the hitchhikers, the fake Herriman's, Eduardo's mattress, and Wilt's attempt of covering up what happened was great! And I was so right! They DID play the 'you don't want your friends to get in trouble do you?' card with him! But I never thought MAC would do that. Bloo yes, but Mac? Shame shame. I'm glad to see he finally took a stand for himself, even after everything he'd done. Shows now finally, Wilt has a limit. About time! But still - what Wilt did to Mr. Herriman was just awful. No matter if he apologised afterwards OR was just reacting to the situation. I know he didn't mean to intentionally hurt him but still - shoving someone down the stairs (no excuse that Wilt doesn't know they were there - he's lived in Fosters since the first year it opened afterall) is not okay at all. PLUS he heard Herriman moaning in obvious pain and did nothing about it. That isn't right at all - no matter what he did afterwards. It's worse then when Frankie just yelled at Wilt - at least she didn't go hurling him down some stairs. Shame Wilt, shame. Even if were covering that don't excuse hurting the rabbit who lets you stay in Foster's. Not at all. My favourite part was (of course) Eduardo. His way of lounging on the couch and channel surfing is just how I spread myself out in front of the idiot box and his expressions were classic. Especially his 'ohhh!' face at the television commercial (even if it was half covered up by those fecking red bars telling you what you're watching I mean really I KNOW I'm watching Fosters and I don't care what's next! ED, ED NOW!) to when Wilt smashed his piggy bank. I half expected him to burst into tears. But his determination for a new mattress just because they're on sale (and with a coupon!) was just so cute 'n random. Arthur Dent for teh win!!

I watched this episode with my grandparents while I was in Wyoming. They both loved it. Seeing them laugh made me smile. I really liked how it would zoom into Eduardo's face and he would say: "No! Es one... day... only." Haha! This episode had me rolling on the florr laughing my flipping face off!

I know Eduardo totally stole the show in this one, all day long I've walking around and muttering to myself "Because he's LOCO!!" over and over again.
I think Tom Kenny should get some kind of Congressional medal of honor or something like that.

I agree that I was pretty surprised that Wilt pushed Mr. Herriman down the stairs -- and you can't pin that on Mac, either. Even if Mac shouldn't have made Wilt cover for them, Wilt has such a strong sense of right and wrong I'd be surprised he'd... you know... push an old guy down a flight of stairs. That's just wrong, no matter which way you look at it.
I think the bit about "that time you told that guy Frankie liked that she used to weigh eight hundred pounds" was one of the best parts. And the Arthur thing.

Is that what Wilt said Bloo said? That's great! All I heard was the "800 pounds" part.

Yes. Yes, I do believe it is.

Yup. Frankie ain't been this mad (George Mucus in trouble again!) since Bloo told a guy she liked she weight 800 pounds. That's mad.
And you know I agree with you kageri; what Wilt did was so wrong I think it cost a lil' bit of my respect for him. Not that it matters in the grand scheme of things but still! That 'n smashing Ed's piggy bank. Like a jerky older brother or something.
