Picture Segment Description
SCENE 1 Oscar explains to Gordon that Slimey is thinking of becoming a carpenter, hence why he's currently hammering a nail into a piece of wood. Gordon wonders if he's too small, but Oscar counters that carpenter ants make out all right. When he runs out of nails, Oscar tells Slimey that he can just get another one from the Fix-It Shop, but Gordon explains that Luis has closed it early today. Oscar ignores Gordon and continues telling Slimey to make his way over there, stating that by the time the slow-crawling worm gets to the Fix-It Shop it will be open by tomorrow morning. "You sorta got all upset over nothing, didn't ya, Gordon?" Oscar chuckles.
