History Recap / FraggleRockS3E3TheGrapesOfGenerosity

* AnAesop: Generosity is better than selfishness.

-->'''Wembley:''' ''[wearing Gobo's vest]'' Could I give you the shirt off my back?\\

* PlayingSick: When Gobo claims to enjoy sitting on his bed with a boulder on his lap, Wembley asks him if he's feeling all right. Gobo starts to say he's fine, then changes his mind as an idea hits him. He tells Wembley he's not feeling well, asks him to get his guitar pick, and then, while Wembley's out of the room, gets into bed in hopes that the blankets will be heavy enough to weigh him down. It takes eight blankets to accomplish this.

* BlatantLies: Gobo's first excuse to Wembley of why he's sitting on his bed with a boulder on his lap is that he must be in a falling rock zone, and the second is that he just ''enjoys'' sitting with boulders on his lap on occasion. Wembley doesn't buy it. Eventually he comes clean and Wembley helps him out.

'''Gobo:''' Rumple is right. I'm not hiding in disgrace. I'm floating on dis ceiling!

* VisualPun: While Gobo's in bed, Rumple and Large Marvin enter to tell him that Red has challenged him to a rock-climbing competition and that if he doesn't show up, he'll lose by default. This does it for Gobo, who decides to accept the challenge. He starts toward the Great Hall, carrying the boulder... but on the way, he overhears Red announcing that she'll give Gobo until the count of ten to show up. Trying to get there in time, Gobo lets go of the boulder, then floats helplessly up to the ceiling.
