friendships come in many different

shapes and sizes and often the bond is

strengthened when others don't accept

your choice of friends but the true test

of that bond is the sacrifices you're

willing to make to hold on to that

special relationship and that's what our

stories about in this episode of still a

beaver

[Music]

I know it's right garage there with my

idea anything anybody of my own strength

will not be college young electable

I really think we ought to talk about

this garage sale again a lot of this

stuff is irreplaceable Bieber you just

don't want to part with your Red River

Sam book Wally I was whisperin rivers

man when he crossed the Pecos

I fought side by side with him as he

cleaned up human City I cried when he

went to the Senate how can you put a

price on that

[Laughter]

[Music]

my monkey this is going to be easy

well that here's the stuff we don't want

yep

that's your math book I need the library

so I can get my fake report that might

go through all that pretty Haskell's an

expert on snake once ago Pete good bring

the last time I asked her for help

you'd only do it if I put an apple on my

head so I could practice with a crossbow

when you say the grandmother does

I don't know that snakes dad didn't give

me a ride to the hassle sure can I drop

you at the corner I'm having a bad

enough day without seeing Eddie Haskell

[Music]

you know my services are very valuable

young man so what have you brought me as

payment a baseball card a shark's tooth

and a picture of a cards woman from

National Geographic

what would although my father might pay

handsomely for the tribeswoman if you

want my assistance these are my

conditions they come huh you have to

clean out the snake cages for life not

their life stupid your life second from

now on whenever i insult you I'd like

you to say thank you sir okay

pea-brain yeah thank you sir hi boys

Freddy I'm going shopping can I pick up

anything for you yeah get some apples

grandma's coming over Sunday Freddy

grandma's on her feet all day at the car

wash she comes here to rest no where was

I

oh yes unlocking the door the study of

snakes otherwise known as

herpetology use that your topic sentence

what's the topic sentence and never mind

we want to clutter your puny cranium

with anything definitely thank you sir

lizard modified breeding larger prey

this is a key snake her name is mrs.

Jackson after my history teacher

mr. Jack complainin and I can only bow

for the snake you know most people like

my father are scared samples of snakes

and in actuality they are gentle soil

and make great pets this is Arthur a

Python my first and favorite snake we're

closer than any kidness dog I'll let you

meet him but don't scare him you're not

sick are you

maybe he just thinking so I doesn't have

to take a test no he's really sick

how can you tell yesterday's lunch is

still alive you better get him to the

vet you're gonna take too long I can fix

that now you're a lovely catch you have

oh thank you it's a passion just send it

from a long line of Persian royalty hey

this is Arthur he eats cab

[Music]

[Music]

that's my boy you don't name these how

does it breathe I don't know everything

I told you never to bring that thing in

here again dr. Maxwell boy are you the

lucky one

you know whenever you come in here this

place is empty sure I'm here today

because I'm worried about Arthur Oh what

seems to be the matter

well he's not eating and his eyes don't

have the usual twinkle

not eating her I think I know what's

wrong

I'm so glad sir Freddie you remember the

last time you brought Arthur in for his

checkup and I told you then he was

getting very old

I suppose my uncle Roy but he still eats

like a horse ready there's only one

reason a snake stops eating and I think

to avoid further suffering it might be

best if I put him to sleep

good idea I always get rotten after I

have a good night's sleep

you mean that kind of sleep he wants to

k*ll him you blockhead Freddy it's best

not to drag this out never I want a

second opinion

I want a specialist

well if you change your line

I'll be here thanks it's comforting to

know that the snake k*ller is just a

phone call away I've tried everything

vitamins hormones I didn't put him near

the TV when that faith healer came on

doesn't seem to behave any better

well there's one last hope laughs

therapy I thought it's book in the

library sky says that laughing insured

him how do you know Arthur has a sense

of humor oh he loves a good joke as much

as the next reptile a priest a rabbi and

a snake walk into a bar sneaking ready

you got two seconds to lock up those

slimy serpent he's never gotten over

that time you put a rattler in his lunch

box it was a sage I know but even the

paramedics couldn't convince him make

sure none of their lunches roaming

around either you can come in now

Frederick I'm very disappointed in you

you didn't do your chores today I'm

sorry sir you didn't take out the

garbage or pay my bill and I told you to

fire my secretary she showed up at work

terribly busy with Arthur he's gonna die
