"Thomas has seen the answer
It came to him in a dream.
From now on we've all decided
Together we'll stay a team."
Thomas' supernatural inspiration to use common sense always makes me guffaw and is the reason I hold up "Calling All Engines" to any better known entry in the canon.

In the series finale of Curious George, I see the Man in the Yellow Hat, as always, walking into a room he has left George alone in, and finding total, wanton destruction, and the mock-innocent face of the monkey-devil. The last thread of patience tears within him, and in a slow-motion pan, he sprints across the room, catches George by the tail, and, as we hear Princess Turandot's voice soar to the climax of Diecimila anni al nostro Imperatore, George closes his eyes, holds his arms wide in an unmissable specter of Calvary and surrenders as the man swings him with full force through the air. He takes on a look of perfect, beatific peace as his skull explodes against the edge of a knocked-over bureau.
