Peanut just forgot to put his collar on that morning. I mean, look at their "father" Earl Sandwich. He takes their collar on just to mess with people. I don't think Grape or Peanut put much stock in whether their collars are on.

Strangely enough, Marvin is named after a childhood pet of Jerry Arbelt. it was a dog.


Sgt. Ralph will soon retire, allowing Fido to be promoted to Sgt. Bino is not happy. Peanut decides to join the K9 unit as well to fill in the vacant spot.

Grape is very careful about her collar, actually. Remember how she cried when Earl took it off? She NEEDS her collar. It reminds her that she has a home now.

For her loosing collar will be equivalent of being alone and homeless.

The title of the latest comic is not just a joke, but a warning that starting Monday this arc's plot will mirror that of Things Fall Apart exactly.

In the year 20xx, Peanut wakes up after being cryogenically frozen from his hiding spot in a game of hide and seek with Grape (He was hiding under the bathroom sink!). upon waking up and finding the world taken over by cats and no other dogs exist, Peanut must travel the world in search for his long lost dormant dog powers which conveniently were buried in dog-shaped capsules by Earl Sandwich.

He is a genius. But it does remind me of a south park episode, where Eric freezes himself in order not to wait for the Wii to come out (3 weeks). However, he remains frozen for a couple of years....

Nice one, Gamecobra.

Squeak is Spo's mother. She hasn't told Joey because it is painful for her to admit that her spouse and children were eaten by a cat. She did not know that Spo survived by ducking into Sabrina's home.

Re: Structural Educated Guessing

Post by CaptainPea »

Okay, this is going to be an uncharacteristically sincere attempt to break down The Arc Specifically About Being Naked's nature. Since they're boring, I'll make my stream of consciousness typed thoughts smaller.

First,let's start at the Housepets universe- the one we've been following for 3 years.
Inside is the movie we saw the credits of on Monday, directed by Rock.
Inside that movie, the production of another movie exists- this is the movie whose editor's computer broke down. This movie is also directed by Rock.
The events that would've been seen in that movie, had it been produced unhindered, would've been Bino's misadventures in nudity.
However, it is highly likely that the film about nudity was originally shot as a documentary, and thus the neighbor dogs were (within the plot of the film which is interrupted) not paid actors


So, in essence, it can be boiled down to a farcical film about film production. The plot of this film (the farce, not the film within the film) is as follows:

Rock is directing a documentary following Bino's misadventures in nudity, however his editor's laptop breaks down. Thus, Bino and Rex have to reenact Bino's most embarrassing experience. Hilarity ensues.

Aha, I ruined it

One More Time:
1-The Arc Specifically About Being Naked
2--Farce Film
3---Documentary Film- Original Footage
*---"Documentary" Film- Staged Footage

There's an actual title, it's just hidden for now
So the real title must have a spoiler in it! Therefore, it is likely one of the following-

42. Grape turns into a zebra and drives to Ontario
42. In which we learn that Pete is Fido
42. Res' Return
42. Hello, I'm Steeeeeeeeeeve.
42. King turns evil
42. All the best cowboys have daddy issues
42. In which Housepets is revealed to be an elaborate publicity stunt to promote Cowboys and Aliens
42. Everyone dies
42. Res' Revenge
42. Uncle Reuben loses it
42. Bino's True Identity
42. The end of the universe
42. Peanut breaks the planet
42. Res' Redemption
42. String theory is true and I have proof
42. An arc which is actually about dancing squirrels
42. Fido gets a parking ticket
42. The End
42. In which Sasha is elected Governor of Virginia
42. Res' Revolution
42. Squeak eats Mars
42. Fido gets a parking ticket from Uncle Reuben
43. ???
42. We have to move the island
42. Fox moves to Oregon
42. We're Snowed In! with the dialogue balloons switched around a bit
42. The tiny alligators living inside of Peanut's intestines stage a coup
42. Res' Recycling Bin

One of these is bound to be close. I'm betting on the first one.

PS. Oh and also, on today's comic, "Fate" is a typo. It's supposed to say "Fat".

Peanut will, and in an unexpected way.

That is precisely why he won't appear here. Rick wants to lull us into a false sense of security before springing a full on Res arc after this one. I thought you knew that, Pea.

Pete will end up screwing up the Housepets Universe so bad that it becomes a second Garfield comic, with Marvin becoming the main character, and animals no longer able to talk.

Pete somehow escapes with Joel's fate orb thing. He tracks down King, explains the whole "Your fate is in my hands (no seriously, look, I'm holding it right here)" deal, King freaks out about it and ends up playing along because he believes he has no choice. Eventually something comes along, either King mishearing a command from Pete or some other event happening/not happening or something, that shows Pete doesn't have total control over King's fate. It's eventually revealed that King has settled into his new life to the point where he no longer identifies as "Joel" and so the orb is controlling the fate of someone who doesn't technically exist anymore.

At least that's how I'd like to see the current arc ending. Except that if it does, then I just spoiled it for myself and everyone else who reads the forums.

I think King is going to have a Major role not only in the comic, but the entire world he lives in. Pete stealing the orb was just one step in his entire plan. I think he's just causing a distraction in heaven while something he planned happens down on earth.
Pete knows what he's doing. Everything is surprisingly going to turn out in his favor.

Grape will be walking through the park one day (in the very merry month of May) when a blue police box crashes right in front of her. A brown cat with a bowtie-shaped tag will poke his head out and ask if he's in Ponyville yet.

The best kept secret in the gardens will be revealed, making everyone question reality. Bino, Fido, and Joey are half cat, and Peanut is one quarter cat, being the son of Fido. Bino is against cat lovers because he resents his half cat status, and is afraid of being picked on for it. That is why he is such a jerk.

This is full of win.

Tiger will start to feel ashamed of is eating habbits. Because of this, he resolves to become healthier. Marvin and Zach will try to help him by becoming Tiger's trainers. At first Tiger has a hard time, but eventually, he becomes an excersize nut, and Zach and Marvin have to find a way to get the old Tiger back.

Seeing the only time he's ever hit on females is when he was on a sugar high, that would be a lot of soda to keep him in a perma sodaed state.

King has gotten too popular, so Rick is going to get rid of him this arc by turning him back into a human and sending him back to jail. Fox will know the truth and visit him in jail once to explain exactly how he feels, and then never talk to him again. Joel will be punished in the worst possible sense in this way.

Truth be told Rick did say he was surprised that People liked King at all in the first place (out side of a small minority of course) I really wouldn't be surprised if King was meant to go away much earlier (like at the end of Dog Days of Summer or a similar arc) and His popularity is what kept him around.
