[edit] Plot
Ren is expecting his cousin Svën to come over. This excites Ren, because Ren remembers Svën as an intelligent young dog, and believes that he can get the intellectual stimulus from his cousin that he fails to get from Stimpy. When Svën arrives, however, Ren finds--much to his mortification-- that Svën has become an obese, idiotic, canine version of Stimpy. Stimpy and Svën bond instantly. The two compare their brains, both of which are small enough to be removed through the earhole. The ritual also includes Svën showing Ren a ball made up of every bandage he has ever used in his life; Stimpy reciprocates by showing Svën his collection of "magic nose goblins" while stating proudly "I picked them myself!".
While Ren is out at work Stimpy and Svën trash the entire house, among other misdeeds:
- contaminating Ren's collection of rare incurable diseases
- painting Ren's collection of fossil dinosaur droppings like easter eggs
- covering Ren's record collection with bubblegum
- scattering used cat litter throughout the house
- playing the board game "Don't Whiz on the Electric Fence!" which consists of an electric fence sitting in the middle of a game board – the object of the game is to urinate ("whiz") on the board in such a way that the stream avoids contacting the electric fence.
Ren arrives home to discover the mess while Stimpy and Svën are playing the board game. To show his immense anger and contempt towards Stimpy and Svën, Ren decides to urinate upon their favorite board game, unaware of the live electric fence. The resulting explosion kills everyone and destroys the house.
The episode concludes with Svën, Ren, and Stimpy all in Hell, where Satan welcomes them with a big grin: "So, you whizzed on the electric fence, didn't you?"
[edit] Additional Opening Credits
- Storyboard: Jim Smith and Bill Wray
- Backround Color Design: Bill Wray
- Animation Direction: Bob Jaques
[edit] Notes, Goofs, and Trivia
- This episode was done mostly by Spumco, and finished by Games Animation.
- At the beginning, Bob Camp, head of Games, is dancing in lederhosen and playing the accordion. John K. was angry over this because of Games Animation finishing this with a bad soundtrack and a "God awful opening credits".
- A scene was cut out on all airings in which Ren threatens to tear Stimpy and Svën's lips off, gouge their eyes out, and pull their arms out of the sockets. It was put back in on The First and Second Seasons DVD. However, the "gouging eyes out" part was put in poorly with the color brighter and a time code showing. A fan fixed this and it might be used in the Ultimate DVD Collection.
- Originally, "Don't Whiz on the Electric Fence" was pee instead of whiz. Nick wouldn't allow the word pee, but Nick said that whiz was okay.
- Some of the musicless parts on the Nickelodeon version had music put in for the Spike TV airings and the DVD. However, some music from the Nick version was replaced. This may be because John K. didn't like the original music.
- This episode is available in many ways. It's shown on Nicktoons Network, on the "Classic 2" video, on a Time Life DVD, and the "Seasons 1 And 2" DVD.
- This iis possibly the first episode that Nickelodeon and Games Animation had to finish.
- The scene in which Stimpy and Sven play circus may have been cut out from Nickelodeon, but has been restored for Spike TV and the "Seasons 1 and 2" DVD box set.
[edit] Quotes
- (Ren scats as he brings in lemonade, then screams & drops his lemonade as he sees Stimpy and Sven wearing gloves on their heads)
- Stimpy: Gee, Ren! Your cousin is the coolest! We're lodge brothers. We both belong to the Loyal Order of Stupids!
- Sven: Ja, und now, we show you our secret handshake.
- (Sven bites Stimpy's glove, transplanting Sven's air into Stimpy's air, then vice-versa, which goes on and on)
- (Ren continuously smacks himself in the head)
[edit] Gritty Kitty Litter Commercial
[edit] Plot
This short starts with stock footage from "Stimpy's Big Day" with the Muddy Mudskipper theme song. On the commercial, we first see litter stick on a wall with the announcer on the right saying that Gritty Kitty is best when it comes to absorbency, order control, and flavor. But, then, he mentions that Gritty Kitty comes with a prize inside, which includes: a shaven yak litter box caddy, a live crab, a fake toe, a real toe, real dynamite, a bolongie sandwich, a junior barbell set, and a fish clip. The announcer also mentions a mask of Stimpy (he got his face on the Gritty Kitty bag in "Stimpy's Big Day"), printed on the back of the bag, and finally says the slogan: is it doesn't say "Gritty Kitty", it stinks.

[edit] What Will We Do 'Til Then- Blow Up Like a Balloon
[edit] Plot
Once again, Stimpy can't say "goodbye", so Ren suggests for him to eat olive loaf and to floss his toes, but they don't fit Stimpy's personality. Ren finally suggested for Stimpy to blow himself like a balloon. Stimpy did so, and said, "goodbye" in a high, squeaky voice. And Ren, to make it funny in his point of view, pops Stimpy.
[edit] Notes, Goofs, and Trivia
- Billy West most likely did Ren's voice in this segment, because he sounds noticably different. However, Ren's last line, "Eh, goodbye, folks" is sound-footage from the first goodbye bumper, which means it was John K. who did at least the last line.
- This is the only "What Will We Do 'Til Then?" segment in Season 2.
