Courage is sitting at his computer playing a game. He finds a site of lawn ornaments for sale and starts browsing, He sees flamingos and garden gnomes. He can't decide which one he likes better. Eustace then comes stomping up the stairs looking for his toothbrush....

Eustace: Bah! Stupid dog! Where did you put my toothbrush?

Courage: I don't know

Eustace: Irresponsible dog!

(a pause)

Courage turns away from Eustace and goes back to browsing on his computer...

Eustace: Muriel!

(no answer)

Eustace: Muriel! Answer me!

Muriel: What do you want now Eustace! I've already pressed your shirts, steam cleaned the carpet, made the jelly rolls, cleaned behind the couch and the TV, and stained the floor! What! What is it! What is it now!

Eustace: I forgot

Muriel: good, because I got to go to the dentist and I can't be wastin' any more time. There is dog food in the fridge for Courage. Remember the top shelf on the left and....

Eustace: Alright, alright already! I can take care of a stupid dog!

Muriel: Bye Courage!

Courage: See ya!

Courage decides on buying the garden gnome. He buys one with a blue shirt and a red cone hat. The Computer then says...

The Computer: What are you going to do with that!

Courage: I don't know!?

The Computer: Your unbelievable, kid!

Courage: Grrrrrr!

The Computer: Ok! Ok! Don't get mad now dog, I was just joking.

Courage: What to hear a joke?

The Computer: I'm all ready...to cover my ears!

Courage: Knock, Knock

The Computer: Who's there?

Courage: Ken

The Computer: Ken..Who?

Courage throws the scanner at the computer screen.

Courage: Bro-Ken!

Courage goes downstairs and goes into the kitchen, and sees that Muriel has came back from the dentist.

Muriel: The dentist said my teeth were great!

Eustace: So what, hey, have you found my toothbrush yet!

Muriel: What are you talkin' about you don't even use a tooth brush! As a matter of fact, you never brush your teeth!

Eustace: Oh...I forgot again. Lousy stinkin' memory!

A delivery truck then pulls up and they set the garden gnome on the Bagge's kitchen doorstep.

Muriel: Aww this little guy is so cute! Eustace I never knew you cared.

Eustace: Uhh... I don't!

Muriel: Oh you are cheeky! This must be from Courage then. What a great surprise!

Courage: Your welcome.

Muriel: I'll set the little fellow in my kitchen window! He'll look so handsome, he will!

Eustace: Yuck! Muriel is in love with a stupid piece of plastic!

Muriel: Its not stupid Eustace, he's a friendly little fellow!

Eustace: Yeah, a friendly foe! Ho Ho ha ha!

the moon starts to rise up and the sky starts to darken

Muriel: Goodnight little friend. I like the gnome a lot Courage. Thanks again!

Courage: I'm glad you like it

Muriel and Courage walk out of the kitchen and into the living room they both watch about a half an hour of TV and fall asleep on the blue sofa. Eustace is still in the kitchen staring at the garden gnome.

Eustace: You sure are an ugly looking thing! Good Riddance!

Eustace picks up the gnome and shoves its head into the sink. The garbage disposal chops up the gnome's head. Eustace goes into the living room too and falls asleep in his red chair......
