Host: Oh, no, I'm sorry, Mr. Poncho, I'm afraid the correct answer is C. The Wolf and the Three Little Pigs is this type of story: A: A Poem. B: A Musical. C: A Nursery Rhyme. D: A Tragedy.
Probably dogs are the only ones who would want to eat a pile of garbage… Thus,
Dogs are likely the only ones on the show…
The producers know this…
So the producers are throwing curveballs. It’s like asking which is a better shelter, a house or a tree? A person chooses A, a chimp, B. That’s the kind of question you ask chimps on a game show if you wanna cheat them. Thus–

So, does he get to eat the garbage or not? Is it he wins or loses? It could be if he’s wrong, he “must” eat the garbage or he can’t eat the garbage.

C, D, what’s the difference? Give him the garbage.

They’ll go on with that tomorrow. Sunday’s strip is always a break from the regular story.

And I’d have been looking for E: A Fairy Tale
I think Poncho has a case for the courts… in terms of traditional story structure D is a more correct answer…

Poor Poncho, he doesn’t get to eat a pile of garbage… (Yeah right!)

Detour is right. Generally a nursery rhyme, you know, rhymes.

The story of the Three Little Pigs is not, alas, a nursery rhyme.

It’s a fix. Poncho got the short end–once again!
