Synopsis
The lesson for today is about Earthtiggers. The Queegles have their own ideas about what a cat looks like- blue with five eyes! Cute decides to be a cat, and Dr. Xargle gets stuck demonstrating the "Tiggerflap." Famished discovers the "earthtigger stinkpan," and he has to undergo "Queeglecakey torture" from The Head. In a manor house full of cats on Planet Earth, a nearsighted old lady mistakes Cute for a tiger cub- so Nigel Spume tries to investigate, but he gets chased by a very unusual tiger. Xamster falls in love on the way back to Planet Queegle.
