Plot

At Bimbo's Experimental Laboratory, Bimbo and Koko concoct a variety of compounds and elixirs, including a drink that is so hot it turns a black cat into a dragon head, as well as turning the cat into a white and black striped one. Their scientific experiments are interrupted when, through a huge drop of the chemical, they see a bathing-suit-clad Betty taking a shower on the roof of her penthouse. Distracted by Betty as she sings "Penthouse Serenade," they forget that the chemicals they've mixed are still on the boil, one of which turns into a Frankenstein-style monster. The creature sees Betty, and crosses over the phone wire to menace her. Although Bimbo and Koko make an effort to stop it from reaching her by cutting the wires using a bird's mouth, the monster defies gravity and reaches the penthouse. Once Betty realizes it's right behind her, she sprays the monster with flower spray, which turns him into a harmless dancing flower. Betty giggles and says, "You're such a nutsy dopesy!"

gollark: It's AMD's brand name for (most of) their consumer CPUs based on the Zen series of architectures.
gollark: I'm not sure all the pinging is necessary.
gollark: Wow, you could open five Chrome tabs with that!
gollark: I wonder if it would be possible to fully or near-fully power it off when not in use without really long boot times somehow, since they're quite power hungry.
