Gene, I already told you, hon,

stop playing that game
at the table.

Breakfast time is for eating

and for talking to each other
about life and stuff.

Oh, I thought it was
for watching Tina

- dribble milk on her shirt.
- Huh? Oh, oops.

Hold on, Mother.

The temperature
in my game is dropping.

I'm gonna put a scarf on Purrbo,
and then I'll put it down,

I promise, I promise, I promise.

Unless the weather changes again

or I find the conversation unstimulating.

Wait. What is this game again?

- You dress a cat?
- Yes. It's called Purrbo.

The weather on the screen
keeps changing,

so you have to keep putting
different clothes on Purrbo.

He got it at a yard sale
for a dollar.

Apparently, these things were
all the rage ten years ago

when there was maybe
nothing else to do.

By the way, Gene, you still owe
me the dollar that you borrowed.

- I gave you an IOU.
- Yep, yep, it's just

that I have
a lot of them from you,

and I'm worried
you and I don't think

they mean the same thing.

Why does it keep
making that sound?

Purrbo meows when he's
too cold or too hot,

and you got to change him

or he can freeze to death
or overheat.

Oh. Like the dinosaurs.

Or menopause, supposedly.

Huh. So is that fun?

I mean, it just sounds
kind of stressful.

A thing that makes noises

when it needs
something from you.

I guess that's also
what kids are.

- Father.
- It's true.

Okay, okay, enough cat chat.

Let's talk about something else.

What are you guys
doing at school?

That's what I'd like to know.

What are we doing there?

Seriously,
I don't get the concept.

My chair is really squeaky.

I've been getting a lot of
attention. I think I like it.

I'm kind of the "it" girl
right now.

Ooh. What about you,
Genie-weenie?

Oh, I just remembered.
School gave me this.

"Broccoli microgreen seeds."

Is this the school
trying to give out

weird healthy snacks
or something?

Gross. I mean yum.

No. They're seeds
for science class.

- Huh. Can I see those?
- I think I'm supposed to

plant them on a wet paper towel
so we can watch them grow

inside our apartment
or something.

Wow. Yeah.
That's what this says.

You plant them
on a wet paper towel,

and they sprout
within a few days.

Gene, this looks...

Sunny again.
I'm feeling crop top.

"Great," I was gonna say.

The crop top? I know.

Why aren't we all wearing them?

Yep. Right.

Hi, Teddy. You're here early.

Yeah. I know you keep telling us

it's annoying we're not
open for breakfast, but...

It is annoying, but, guys,
I'm not here to eat.

I need a favor.
I got a giant emergency.

- Oh.
- Oh, my God, what happened?

I ordered fresh-caught
wild salmon from Alaska.

It was supposed to be
delivered yesterday,

but shipping got delayed,
and I just got an email

saying it's gonna be
delivered tomorrow.

- Okay.
- But I'm leaving town today

to take Mom to Senior Surf Camp
in North Carolina.

Ooh, Senior Surf Camp.

She's excited about it.
She keeps saying "tubular."

I tried it, too.
I-I can't pull it off.

Teddy, none of that
is an emergency.

Bob, it's fish. It's perishable.

If I miss the delivery,

my salmon is gonna
sit in a warehouse

somewhere at room temperature
and rot,

which would be heartbreaking,
not to mention it wasn't cheap.

Why did you buy it?
I mean, don't they sell

the same Alaskan salmon
at the grocery store

for the normal amount it costs?

Eh, I bought it
a few nights ago.

It was really late,
and I'd had some beer,

and I was fighting with someone
from high school online,

and I saw an ad of a guy
with a big beard

wearing a fishing bib
and holding a big salmon.

I wanted to be that guy, Bob,

the guy who eats salmon
right out of the water.

- Me, too, like a bear.
- So is it okay

if I change the delivery address
to your place?

And then you can put it
in your freezer till I get back?

Guys, this is maybe
the most important thing

I'm ever gonna ask you.

I mean, you say that a lot.
Like when you asked

if we thought you were
a baseball cap guy.

It's no problem, Teddy.
Send it here.

We'll make your fish wish
come true.

Thank you, thank you.

That's so tubular of you.

- No, no.
- No, no.

Oh, I know.

Hey, you're home.

I knew you'd come back,
my little boomerangs.

Yeah, well, it's your reward
for feeding and sheltering us.

Mm. Hey, Gene, I read about
your microgreens project.

I mean, it seems
really interesting.

You observe how they grow
and write it up in a report.

And it says it's due
at the end of the week, so...

End of the week?
That's like a month away.

Gene, I think you should
start the seeds soon

'cause, you know, they take
a few days to sprout.

Like that one hair on Mom's
chin she always tweezes.

- It's true.
- Also, the sooner you start 'em,

the sooner we can watch
those little guys grow.

Hold on, Dad. Snowstorm.

Gene, can you maybe stop
playing that for a second?

But Purrbo is chilly.

And he looks good in everything.

Oh, Teddy texted: "Don't forget,

tomorrow 8:00 a. m. to 8:00 p.m.
That's the window."

Are we getting a new window?
Ooh la la.

No, no, a delivery window.

Teddy's having
his salmon sent to us

'cause he's out of town.

Is this the kind
of fun adult stuff

we have to look forward to?

Well, you know,
you can also drink.

- Drinking's pretty cool.
- Hmm.

I mean, it's not cool.
It's not cool.

Lin, should we be worried

that our son is
obsessed with a game

where you just dress a cat
and that's it?

I don't think so. I mean, you
get obsessed with things, too.

Remember when you got
really into soap carving?

Every soap in our house was
shaped like a little duck.

- Sort of.
- Yeah, but I get obsessed

- with interesting things.
- Right, sure.

You know what?
Maybe I could help Gene

with his microgreens project.

Show him how fun it can be.

I mean, we could have
a mini farm in our apartment.

Who wouldn't want
a mini farm in their apartment?

Me. I don't want a bunch
of mini animals in here.

- This place would stink.
- No, Lin, that's not...

Anyway, my point is

I think he's just too
distracted by that cat game.

Oh, a mini tractor
could be fun, though.

- Tiny little haystacks.
- Yep. Okay.

Well, I'm gonna go get water.

Oh, get me some, too.
And a little snack.

- Maybe a cookie.
- Sure.

- And some crackers.
- Really?

Yeah. And cheese,
with the crackers.

And arrange it a little bit.

Gene, what are you doing
out of bed

- with the laptop?
- Oh, hey, Dad.

I'm just talking to some
people on a Purrbo forum.

Okay. What people
are you talking to?

Purrbo people, or "Purrbs,"
as they call themselves.

- Which is delightful.
- Mm.

Apparently,
there's a trick where,

if you press both buttons
at the same time,

Purrbo will cycle
through all the outfits

you've ever changed him into.

Wow, I-I did not know that.

Hey, so I was thinking
I could help you

with that microgreens
project for school.

You know how to help
with school?

I mean, no, not usually,

but I feel like I can help
with this project.

Okay. If you want to.

So that sounds like fun, right?

Doing this project together,

learning about new,
interesting things

instead of things that might
be making your brain bad?

Gene, you're picturing me
as that cat, aren't you?

No. Okay, a little.

Morning, my little glories.
Wait. Is this breakfast?

This is Gene's
microgreens project.

Are we eating it?
- No, no. I'm making eggs.

I'll never make you
eat vegetables

- for breakfast, sweetie.
- I love you, Mom.

So, Gene,
you want to get started

on planting some seeds
and, you know,

maybe put Purrbo down for a sec?

- Uh-huh.
- Gene, seriously.

Yep, yep. Okay. Putting it down.

So, first, we take
two wet paper towels

and put them on the bottom
of one of the trays.

Quick outfit change

for a rainy day, and go.

Uh, and now we sprinkle
the seeds.

Yeah. You want to just
start the sprinkling

- and I'll catch up?
- Gene, come on.

- This is the fun part.
- Obviously.

All right. Sprinkle,
sprinkle, sprinkle, sprinkle.

- Okay. Are we done?
- Almost.

Uh, I'm just gonna spread
these out a little.

Not that you didn't
sprinkle them really good.

One more thing.
We have to put another tray

on top of this one
to block out the light.

It's called the blackout phase.

It helps the microgreens
grow more long

- and more tender.
- More tender?

These microgreens sound like
great boyfriend material.

You're not listening to any of this, are you, Gene?

Mm-hmm.
- Okay. Here's breakfast.

Bon appé-toot.
I'm gonna head downstairs

and wait for Teddy's
salmon delivery.

No one tell him
I was two minutes late.

Delivery Teddy is
a little intense.

Hmm.
- Oh, wait. I just remembered

I was gonna go
to the store today

and get a few things we need.
Uh, Louise and Tina,

can you go pick up some stuff
for me after school?

Gene, you should come home
and keep working

on your cool mini-greens
project with your cool dad.

- Uh-huh.
- Sure, we can go,

but our rates have gone up

since we last
ran errands for you.

- You mean from zero?
- What you asking for?

- We get some candy from the store.
- Okay.

- Oh, me candy also.
- And we get to keep the change.

Just the coins.
Paper money comes back to me.

Hmm. We'll check out
our other offers

- and let you know.
- Louise.

- Fine, we'll go.
- Yay.

I know Mom's expecting us
to bring back some bills,

but it's not our fault they
gave us our change in all coins.

I mean, you did say,
"Don't give us any bills.

That creepy eye pyramid
freaks us out."

Sticky hand? I'm buying.
I mean Mom's buying.

- I'm good.
- Hey, remember that thing?

Oh, yeah. The spaceship
kiddie ride thing.

We used to pretend we were
astronauts on a mission

for Gene to be the first person
to poop on the moon.

Yeah. He said that's
what the craters were for.

I felt bad for the craters.

You know, we have
all this change.

Should we take a trip
to the moon

for old times' sake?
Visit some old moon poops?

Oh. I guess.
I don't think we can both fit.

Why don't you go first?

I was already climbing in,
but okay.

Here. Hold these.

And don't eat all the red ones.

Or the green ones.
Or the yellow ones.

So just the black ones, then?

- Not those, either.
- Okay.

And blast off!

Huh. Kind of slower
and more boring than I remember.

Yeah. I don't even think
that's how spaceships move.

Hey. Hold something out,

and I'll slap it
with this sticky hand.

- Hold out a jelly bean.
- Huh.

That might be impossible, but...

Oh, you got it. Do it again.

- Yes!
- Whoa.

Hey, I think we just invented
an amazing new thing.

Are we gonna be wealthy now?

I think so. Or we just found

a new complicated way
to eat jelly beans.

Yeah, we did.

I can't believe
Teddy's package never came.

I had to be at the restaurant
for 12 hours today for nothing.

I mean, it's how we try
to make a living.

Never mind.

And Teddy just texted

that now the package
is coming tomorrow.

That's annoying.

Should we stop being
friends with him?

No. Maybe. No.

Oh, Tina, Louise,
that reminds me.

Can you go to the store
again tomorrow after school?

I forgot to put
laundry detergent on the list,

and we need it bad.
I've been wearing the same socks

for three days, and my feet are
getting all cranky and stanky.

Sure, Mom. We can go
back to the store.

Wait a sec. Did you guys
give me back my change?

Ah. Sorry.
They just gave us coins.

They had no small bills.
They said they got rid of them

'cause they were just too small.
Right, Tina?

- Yeah.
- All right.

Hey, Gene, should we take
a peek at your seeds?

See if anything grew
from this afternoon?

Maybe, you know, take some
measurements for your report?

I mean, it's hard
to concentrate on TV

when we've got microgreens
growing, right?

Ah, I don't want to bother them.

Come on. It's probably too soon,

but maybe a radical or two
has sprouted.

Radical?
Are these seeds hippies?

No. Uh, according
to your worksheet,

radical is the name
of the first thing

that sprouts out of the seed.

I think we should call it
the sprouty outy thingy.

Purrbo agrees.

Oh, no. He's just cold.

- Hey, Gene.
- Oh, hey, Dad.

I can't stay long. I got to
get back to the restaurant.

But I just wanted to see how
your observations were going.

Did anything grow
while you were at school?

Okay, I did come up here
and peek earlier.

They're growing,
and they're amazing, right?

Speaking of amazing,
listen to this.

Huh?

Yeah. Uh, okay, Gene,

your microgreens observation
project is due tomorrow,

and you've barely observed it.

I've observed it.
The seeds grew, right?

I mean, I don't want to use
the word "predictable," but...

Okay. That's it.
Look, I don't want to do this,

but I've got to take away Purrbo

until you finish
the microgreens project.

What? No!

Gene, you need to focus
on the sprouts,

not to mention it's interesting.

I mean, we grew food
in your room.

I've grown food
in my room before.

I mean, stuff has grown
on the food

I've had in my room,
but same dif.

Okay, I'm taking this.
Give it to me.

No, no, no, no, no! Aah!

Okay, but listen to me.
Purrbo could die.

- You have to keep him alive.
- I'll keep him alive.

- Promise to keep him alive!
- I promise.

I mean, it doesn't seem
like that hard of a game.

What do the buttons do?

Gene, it'll be fine.
Now get to work

on your report, all right?

Don't let him freeze!
And don't let him overheat!

And don't put him in
a turtleneck! He hates that!

So get this. Teddy said they
haven't shipped the salmon yet.

They think it's gonna
go out today. Unbelievable.

I mean, is the salmon nervous
about flying or something?

- Have a couple drinks, salmon.
- Hmm.

Also, I'm pretty sure
Louise and Tina

chugged all the milk
and then said we're out of milk

so they can go
to the store again.

These errands are getting
pretty expensive

with how much they're
skimming off the top

to do whatever it is
they're doing.

- Yeah!
- Yes!

We are the world champions
at this.

Take that, France!

What was that?

Was that the cat game?

Yeah, I promised Gene
I'd take care of it.

Uh, looks like it's windy.

So I guess I press this button?

And there's a jacket,
and that's it.

Uh-oh. Did you play
the confiscation card

and now you're on Purrbo duty

and no one's laughing at you
at all?

You saw how he is
with this thing, Lin.

I had no choice. And also,

maybe this is the parental
move of the year

and people will want me
to write parenting books,

and I won't dedicate
my books to you.

Ugh. Now it's sunny.

This isn't fun. I-I don't even
like dressing myself.

It shows.

- Hey, Bob. Hey, Linda.
- Joel!

What happened to your arm?

I slipped on a wet floor.

You know that phrase
"slippery when wet"?

Turns out not just the name

of a Bon Jovi album. Hmm.

Aw, you give floors a bad name.

Here, let me come out
and help you.

- Thanks, Joel.
- See you, Bob.

Hey, Dad, I'm confused about
what I'm supposed to measure,

the leafy thing
or the long thing.

The long thing.
It's called a stem, I think.

Here, let me put this inside,
and I'll come up and help.

Okay. So how's Purrbo?
Does he miss me?

He's fine. He's right he...

- Oh, no.
- What?

I had Purrbo in my hand
when I went to get the bread,

and I must have put it down
inside the truck.

- What?!
- Oh, Gene.

Uh, it'll be okay.
We'll get him back.

We'd better find him soon,
or Purrbo's gonna get a sunburn

or a rainburn, all of the burns!

This is a nightmare!

Nightmares are just insights
into suppressed emotions!

Pick up, pick up, pick up.

Crap. Went to voice mail.

Hey, Joel. It's Bob.

Uh, I think I accidentally

left my son's
little cat game thing

- in the back of your truck.
- Tell Purrbo to be strong!

- Tell him Gene loves him!
- Aw.

Uh, you probably heard that.

C-Could you please call me
when you get this?

Thanks. Okay.
So Joel will call me back,

and then we'll go pick it up.

Ooh. I got to run
to the bathroom.

Bob, can you keep an eye out
for Teddy's salmon?

And that's not a fun euphemism.

Okay. Gene,
I'm really, really sorry

I left Purrbo in Joel's truck,
but he'll call back soon.

In the meantime, how about we
finish your microgreens project?

Purrbo would want you to.

You don't understand, Dad.
If Purrbo dies,

I have to start over
with a new cat,

and the history
of all the outfits

I've ever changed him into erases.

We need to find him now!

Gene, what are we
supposed to do,

just drive around
with the windows down

screaming "Joel"
and hoping he hears us?

Joel!

This is ridiculous.
We should go home

and finish
your microgreens project.

Disagree!
This is way more important

than measuring
paper towel plants.

What is the point of that
anyway?

Uh, maybe it's to help
feed the world?

What's the point of Purrbo?

To dress a cat appropriately
for the weather!

Are we really
having this debate?

Joel!

Oh, my God. Wait.

Are those your sisters
riding on that thing

that's supposed to be
for little kids?

What are you guys doing?

Uh, shopping for Mom.
What are you doing?

We don't have time
for Operation Moon Poops!

We're looking
for the bun delivery guy.

- Aren't we all?
- He has Purrbo, damn it!

- Have you seen him?
- I don't know.

Maybe a couple quarters
would jog my memory.

Oh, can you take this
home to Mom?

- Okay. Wh-What's in here?
- Milk.

- It's warm.
- That's, uh, weird.

- It was cold an hour ago.
- We got to go! We got to go!

Okay. Okay. Okay.

Hope you ordered a burger,
'cause I brought you one.

(laughs, gasps) Oh, no!

- What?
- No!

No! Why?

Are you okay?

I missed the delivery!

Teddy, I'm so sorry!

Can I just get that burger
from you real quick?

Stupid, stupid salmon!

- Joel!
- That's it.

We're done. I'm turning around.
We're going home.

What? No! Admit it, Dad.
You never cared about Purrbo.

That's not true, Gene.

I mean, I don't, really. Sorry.

You and I just have different
relationships with Purrbo.

Jealous much?
There's Joel!

- Joel!
- Joel!

Bob, what's going on?

Is there an obvious problem
with your buns?

Could you tell that
I kneaded them with my forehead?

No, no. I left you a message.

I'm pretty sure
I left my son's game

in the back of your truck.
Uh, can we take a quick look?

Oh, sure.
There it is.

Purrbo!

He froze to death!

No...!

Oh, my God. Gene, I'm so sorry.

- Hey, Bob.
- Yeah?

Is it rude if I gently
move your son

away from the back of my truck,
close the doors and drive away?

Uh, I'll-I'll move him.

- I'm so sorry, Gene.
- Just get me home.

I need to get
on the Purrbo forum.

I'm going as fast as I can.

Look, I know
you're really mad at me

and you probably
want some space,

but maybe you can start over
with a new Purrbo.

How dare you! His sweet little
kitty body isn't even cold yet.

I mean, it is because
you let him freeze to death.

Again, I'm so sorry.

Plus, I don't want a new Purrbo.

I want this one
with my outfits history.

That's probably gone forever,
like kitty litter in the wind.

Do you, uh, want me
to tell you a story?

That used to make you feel
better when you were little.

No! Maybe.

Okay. Uh, once upon a time,

there was, uh, a cat.

Oh, shoot. Sorry.

I don't know why I said that.
It just came out.

That's 19,

which is one away from 20.

Which is the most amount
of jelly beans

anyone has ever gotten
with a sticky hand ever.

And the most jelly beans
someone's sister has ever

held up for them to hit with
a sticky hand ever, probably.

- Yep.
- Excuse me. We got a complaint

that you two have been
hogging the spaceship.

Who, us?

No. We just got here.

Aren't you guys a little old
to be riding this thing?

Excuse me?
I'm four, and she's five,

and we're tall for our age.

Well, anyway,
please vacate the ship.

Wait. No, you got to
let us keep going.

We're about to catch our 20th
jelly bean with a sticky hand.

Do you have any idea
what that means?

No. I'm not sure
what you're saying.

It means we're about
to make history here.

Oh, great. The ride stopped.

Okay, buckaroo. Your turn.

- Are you serious?
- Yes.

Fine. But this store is ageist.

Yeah. And also,

when sticky hand jelly beaning
is a professional sport,

- you're gonna look like a fool.
- You make me sick!

Stupid missed delivery slip.

Uh-oh. It's Teddy.

- Uh, you get it.
- Huh?

No, no. That's crazy.

Uh, just kidding.
You enjoy your meal.

- Hi, Teddy.
- Hey, Lin.

I'm at the beach
looking at the ocean,

where fish live, and it
made me think of salmon,

so I thought I'd check in.

Yeah, yeah.
Uh, uh, how's your mom doing?

Has she been hanging
a whole lot of tens?

Mom's doing great.

She's making me take
slo-mo videos of her surfing.

She said she's gonna figure out
a way to monetize it.

I don't really get how.

- That's fun.
- Yeah. So, any updates,

fish-related or otherwise?

Listen, Teddy,
I got to tell you something.

Okay.

Hi. Are you, uh, Linda Belcher?

Yes! Oh, my God. Thank you.

Uh, a package just arrived,

and-and it says "perishable"
on the box, and "Alaska."

Lin, it's got to be the salmon.

- So I didn't miss the delivery.
- What?

But then what was this? Oh,
it was Bob's special insoles.

Oh, he's gonna be sad. He was
really excited about those.

Teddy, I'm gonna put the salmon
in the freezer right now.

Great. Thanks.
Hey, Lin, I ordered some ribs

and had them sent to you guys
as a thank-you.

The delivery should come
between 5:00 a. m. and 3:00 p. m.

- Oh, God.
- You got to dip it in the vinegar,

- which I had sent separately.
- Oh, no, no, no.

And that's coming sometime
between 9:00 and 9:00.

No!

All right. Fine. I like ribs.

Okay, I searched the forum,
and Meow-ton Abbey says

you should be able
to keep your history

if you push a pin in the hole
on the top of Purrbo

and press both buttons
at the same time.

I guess Purrbo and I
know each other well enough

for me to do that to him.
I'm gonna find a pushpin.

Huh. That looks
like an active forum.

It's a very supportive
and nurturing community.

I was looking forward
to posting something.

My name was gonna be
Bohemian Cat-sody.

- Huh. Nice.
- Okay. Found a pin.

Here. Let me hold the pin
in the hole,

and y-you push the buttons.

- Come on, come on, come on.
- Come on, come on, come on, Purrbo.

- He's back.
- Yes!

Hold on.

Let me see if my outfits
are still there.

- Yes!
- Oh, thank God.

I can't believe I'm saying this,
but I'm so happy

to see that cat
and his clothes again.

- Now I can finish my project.
- Great.

L-Let's observe some sprouts.

Oh. Not that project.
A Purrbo-based project.

- A Purr-ject.
- Oh. Wh-What is it?

It's not finished, but I'll
show you what I have so far.

♪ Meow, meow, meow ♪

♪ Meow, meow ♪

♪ Meow, meow, meow, meow. ♪

- Hey, that's great, Gene.
- Thank you.

I don't know if anything
has ever won every Oscar,

but I feel like this has a shot.

I mean, I have to admit

I don't love that game,
but look what you did.

You made something new
and creative and fun with it

because you're interested
in interesting things,

which I wasn't worried about
at all that much.

I'm sorry I gave you
such a hard time about Purrbo.

That's okay. I know it's
way over some people's head.

Yeah. But you know what?

We should still probably finish
your microgreens report.

It is due tomorrow, right?

Maybe I just show my teacher
this Purrbo thing

and say I took
a different approach?

I don't think that'll work.

Can I at least dress
the microgreens in little hats?

- Sure.
- Yeah!

So you guys finished
both projects?

- Yep.
- Yeah. We made my Purrbo video,

and we observed the heck
out of some broccoli sprouts

to the point where I think
they got uncomfortable.

And you'll be enjoying them
with your meal this evening,

which I assume
will make them happy.

- Hey, Tina, hold up a sprout.
- Okay.

- Yeah!
- Nice.

Ooh, sticky hand.

Let me try. Oh, my face!
