Comments:
  • Pale white skin, tricks kids into going off with him. At first I thought Pineapple the Clown was Michael Jackson.
  • Okay, if the entire fair was ran by Rita's henchmen, why was it still running in the last scene?
  • Silvia's not too smart running off with some strange clown. I guess she never saw It.
  • I half expected Commander Cruger to appear at the end of this episode and give a speech about not going with strangers. "Anubis Cruger, Chicago Illinois, 60652. Only you can take a BITE out of CRIME!"
