SNOOKER LOOPY
BadBrutha arranges this stupid pool tournament to raise money for the PreTeen Muppets stupid basketball plot. The Devil Twins want to join the team too - I think it is against the rules to use evil supernatural powers beyond mortal ken, actually. Kyert (who now has her hair back through the magic of "extensions") plays Panto Jane (who is about as good as I am at pool...) while Ian smugs around in the background. Snooker ace gus is only allowed to play left handed and loses when Mo batters him "accidentally". Backstreet is the ref and has to wear these enormous white gloves that make him look like Mickey Mouse (like, even more than usual). Long story short: Mo wins dubiously. BB gets enough money. The end.

Some police are around looking for someone who robbed the Kwik-e-mart. Maybe this is important for later. Who cares?

Dot confesses her Cancer Secret Shame to Denman. He says that she has to tell Jim but when Jim spots a letter from the orse-spittle in her bag, Dot bears false witness and says it is just a routine test.

Moomin is frustrated that Freudian Freakboat Martin won't tell Poline that they are moving out. She leaves some estate agent papers in the living room with "My new house, signed Moomin" written on it to force the issue. Poline finds them and goes apeshit and shouts at Martin the Vic. Then she goes home and cries. Get a grip Poline, they'll be moving across the road not to sodding Ulan Bator.

Haven't we already had about five episodes in recent years where people gamble away the Vic or the Car lot or something??? What's wrong with these people? O-Den (wearing a vile pink shirt) gets Byrite and Denman to play poker with him. Minty and aGarry join in too after they accidentally break Byrite's brakelight and need cash to replace it. AG and Minty decide to play in "cahoots" and to signal if they get a really good hand so the other one knows when to fold. Of course they both get a good hand at the same time but still manage to win some cash. Byrite pretends that he is going to punish them for winning but he is only joking. Dick. Teen comes in and snarls at Byrite before Denman makes her leave - as soon as she is out of the door Byrite says "she's feisty, that one" - I half expect Teen to run back in and launch herself at him but apparently there is soundproof field to stop any noise leaving the open doorway. Byrite is very chatty and comments that Sham is "built for fun" - retch, retch retch - and also "smart". Now we know you're lying. It comes down to the final exciting hand and predictably O-Den bets the house and club for the betting office and Vic (Denman, in the role normally filled by a moll, squeals "Noooo!"). Anyone would think there is buried treasure under the Vic the way they all get so excited about it. O-Den has 4 twos but, gasp, Byrite has 4 eights. He points out that the club isn't O-Den's to give away anyway and that the bet is off, calls him a sad loser and leaves. That was all a bit pointless then.
