for our trip, don't you?

But what if I lose again?

You didn't get out of that bubble room

to play it safe, did you?

- You're right.

- Go for it.

I'm tapped out.

I'm gonna go steal some quarters

from that blind lady.

- Slim, I don't think...

- Wait here.

I gotta go.

I only have two days to...

When we're done in this casino,

we'll check out...

Wait! No, Slim! I gotta go!

I only have two days left!

- It's gonna be awesome.

- I only have two days left.

I didn't like leaving Slim

without saying goodbye...

...but I knew the vato

would understand.

The wedding was two days away and I

only had 12 CCs of American steel...

...to get me there.

Don't think I can't see you gawking

at those neon boobies.

Just keep your eye

on the road, mister.

Hey, have you seen

my little buddy?

He's got, like, frizzy hair

and he's in a bubble.

Hey, what's up?

Have you seen this

little bubble guy, man?

I wanted to show the little vato

some fun. I didn't mean it.

Excuse. Hola.

We're a bit lost.

Uh, could you tell us the way to...

...Niagara Falls?

I beg your pardon?

'Cause that's where my buddy was headed

when you left him in the desert to die.

Come back! You Bright and Shinies! Come

back and get shiny on my knife, huh?

This looks like Area 51.

Holy mother of sh*t, Morton!

What is that?

A space creature?

An alien?

Oh, my God! Jimmy!

Jimmy!

Jimmy!

Stop the car! Jimmy!

I wasn't quite sure

just how I'd gotten on board...

...but I'd always dreamed

of riding a train.

Thank goodness

the worst was behind me.

Or so I thought.

Look, he's awake.

What are we going to do?

- Dr Phreak is gonna hear you!

- What?

He's gonna hear you.

You gotta hide.

What did you say?

He said be quiet or

the doctor will hear you.

Who are you?

They call me the Human Sasquatch.

What's your real name?

Um, Clark?

So what's your deal?

Why are you in a bubble?

To protect me from germs.

I was born without any immunities,

so even a single one could kill me.

But your doctor

would know all about that.

- Be quiet! He's gonna come!

- He's not your average doctor.

He's Dr Phreak.

We're all a part of his

New Travelling Phreak Show.

- He owns us.

- Owns you?

- Shh! - Be quiet! Here comes

Dr Phreak! - He's an ex-con.

If he find out you're in this train,

he'll own you too.

Look!

Now you did it, Bubble Butt.

- Here he comes! Run for your life! Run!

- He's a vicious brute.

You're Dr Phreak?

- Why, he's so mini!

- Mini?

Me? Mini?

I'm not mini!

I'm not mini!

Not! Not! Not!

I'm not mini!

Who the hell are you?

- He's the bubble boy.

- Yeah. - Shut your beak!

- What are you doing out of your coop?

- I shut up.

You know, I could use
