The next day, Gumball and Darwin were asleep in their bedroom while Drawer and Steven were both sleeping on the air-mattress before they were suddenly awoken by a commotion going on outside.
“What the…?” Drawer gasped.
“What… is that?” Steven asked as he rubbed his eyes.
“Hey! Get off of my car!” someone ranted while honking his horn. “Get out of the way, Watterson!”
Soon, they all looked out from the window. Down on the street, an OVERLY muscular, handsome and shirtless Richard was posing on the front of a car which was owned by a short-tempered, retired puppet named Mr. Robinson. He was known as the next-door neighbor to the Wattersons, but was normally a grouch at times.
“Get out of the way of my car!” Mr. Robinson exclaimed again.
“That's right, buddy.” Richard chuckled. “Honk if you think I'm tonk.”
“Oh, look.” Gumball said sarcastically. “We've created a monster.”
“Yeah.” Darwin agreed. “A really ripped one.”
“Since… When did he get those 8 packs?” Drawer asked.
“Say… which one of you two fine specimens is coming with me to the mall?” Richard asked while flexing. “People there are gonna wanna see me with my shirt off.”
“I think we're gonna stay home.” Gumball nervously suggested.
“Same here.” Steven agreed as he chuckled nervously.
“I wasn't talking to you.” Richard disagreed. “I was talking to these babies.”
Richard just kissed his biceps while photographing himself with a cellphone.
“Aww, for cryin' out loud!” Mr. Robinson ranted as he backed his car up, then drove into Richard, carrying him away on top of the hood.
Gumball just sighed in annoyance. “We have to follow him.”
“Because he's a danger to himself?” Steven asked.
“No.” Gumball replied. “Because there's a danger he'll embarrass us.”
At that moment, Drawer rode up in front of the house on his mini-bike and lowered down his sunglasses, leaving the others in shock and surprise by his entrance.
“Hop on, boys.” Drawer said confidently. “We got a… pretty darn handsome bunny-father to stop.”
A few minutes later, Mr. Robinson's car screeched to a halt in the ToonTown Super Mall parking lot. Richard just slid off and rolled into position for another photo.
“Thanks for the lift.” Richard smiled.
“I was trying to run you over!” Mr. Robinson mumbled under his breath as he drove off.
Meanwhile, Gumball, Darwin and Steven were all racing their way to the mall on Drawer’s mini-bike, in hopes of snapping Richard out of his
“How are we gonna know where he is?!” Gumball asked.
Luckily for them, Darwin was checking his phone. “Don't worry, he's selfie-ing now. He updated his profile picture every five seconds. We can work it out from that.”
He then showed the screen to the others. “See? Look at those puppies.”
Gumball and Steven just covered their eyes in disgust, thinking that the picture was gonna have something dirty and inappropriate in it.
“AHH! WE DON’T WANNA SEE THAT!” Steven exclaimed before he peeked at an image of Richard holding two ACTUAL puppies. “Oh. Not what I expected. That means he's at the pet store!”
