Zookeeper Page #3

---

you've been here 10 years.

I'm only been here eight.

It's basically like getting a black belt

after only a month of karate.

Or mastering a, uh...

Let's see. Um.

That's all I can think of right now.

Just karate, go with that.

Yeah.

So it's good.

Wow.

Yeah.

That's good.

Oh, Griffin, you're bleeding.

No, no.

Yes, yes, you are.

Come here.

Let me get it, come...

I'm not gonna bite.

There.

There you go.

Now you're all better.

Anyway, Robin was talking about

wanting to see

the animals tomorrow,

and we're wondering what are the

odds of getting a private tour?

Not good. Not good at all.

There's a sign-up sheet,

a pretty elaborate waiver.

And you'd have to go through the main

office, which is closed. They close at 4.

Yeah, doesn't sound good.

It's not.

Okay, so we're on our own.

Well, it was really nice to see you.

Okay.

You know?

Bye, Floyd.

Bye, Griffin.

Dave's right.

I gotta get out of this zoo.

- Closing up shop again, Grif?

- Yeah, just had to clean up.

Meeting.

Let's do this. Come on.

What? Oh, nothing.

I wasn't cleaning my basement.

Okay. Here we go.

If this is another eating intervention,

I'm not hearing it.

This is my ideal weight.

Ask the vet.

Come on. Pop the latch.

Yeah, let's go. We want a good seat.

- What do you think this is?

- Am I psychic?

We got the call the same time.

Take it down a peg, just asking.

Bernie.

Hey, we having a meeting.

You wanna come?

You don't.

Don't know why I asked.

Come on.

We're gonna have a meeting.

I'm excited about this.

- I wonder.

- What's going on?

All right.

I got a very busy schedule.

This better be good.

You sleep 20 hours a day, Joe.

I think you'll live.

Okay, things I didn't want

the group to know.

Look, we got a problem.

Remember that chick that broke Griffin's heart?

Well, she is back.

What?

What, Stephanie's back? Whoa.

This is not good.

Griffin's thinking of quitting.

We can't let that happen.

He can't leave.

He's the best zookeeper we ever had.

He keeps my hay fresh and he rubs

lotion on me when I get dry skin.

He makes papier-mach antelopes

for me to attack.

And inside? Muffins.

Oh, I like muffins.

Can I get a "Hey now"?

Plus, he's the only human

who recognizes me as an equal.

In your dreams.

Thumbs, baby.

It's all about the thumbs.

What do you call this?

That's a paw. You can't grab

a coffee mug with that.

You can't wear mittens.

It's useless.

I'm so blessed.

Sorry. One more look.

Griffin saved my life.

Right, I made my decision.

We're not helping Griffin.

Really? Because I remember a time

when you needed help with females.

Namely me.

Remember, you were shy.

You sent your buddy over
