“Ig’s Got a New Roomie,” Episode 12

Nicki, attempting to adjust to her old life on Earth, is thrown for a loop when Gneeecey unexpectedly barges into her basement apartment in the middle of the night. She hears loud banging on her door, which seems to open all by itself—and there he is.

Since returning to her own world, Nicki has been dealing with dimension burn, struggling to remember things. When the zany canine-humanoid shows up, memories come flooding back. Gneeecey accuses Nicki of stealing his teddy bear Yammicles, plus a thousand of his dollars. She suddenly panics, suddenly wondering if the evil alien gangsters chasing Gneeecey have followed him to her dimension. Back in Perswayssick County, the creeps tried to kill Nicki and Gneeecey several times.

Gneeecey informs Nicki that he too is suffering from dimension burn—indeed, his skin is purple beneath his grungy white fur—and he insists that he must stay with her for a while. She replies that he absolutely cannot.

Gneeecey also demands that Nicki decipher the secret codes he believes she has hidden away in a manuscript. This information would supposedly enable him and his fellow citizens stranded in Perswayssick County to travel back to their native Planet Eccchs. Nicki has no idea what he’s talking about.

The rude dog jumps into Nicki’s bed, makes himself all too comfortable, and notifies her that she will be sleeping on the floor.

Little does Nicki realize, she is in the process of discovering something new about herself.

“Sports in Outer Space (A Little Celestial Cross-Training),” Episode 11

An exhausted, overworked and demoralized Nicki Rodriguez finds herself sailing through space atop a diaphanous oval spinning golf course. A gleeful Gneeecey, golf bag slung over his shoulder, skips down the celestial fairway, mocking the planets in Earth’s solar system. He is intent on destroying each orb systematically. Nicki begs him to stop, but to no avail. She is incredibly distraught when Gneeecey turns his attention to her planet and the sun.

After that nightmare, Nicki schedules a solo therapy session with veggie meatball maven/licensed therapist Ingabore Scriblig, AKA “Grandma.” When Gneeecey crashes the session, and Grandma advises him that he must schedule appointments with her, he says something that, as usual, makes sense only to him.

“Hypoopnotized,” Episode 13

Perswayssick County leader Gneeecey unexpectedly barges into NIcki's basement apartment at 3 a.m.

Since returning to her own world, Nicki has been dealing with dimension burn and is struggling with memory problems. Zany canine-humanoid Gneeecey informs Nicki that he is staying with her for a while. She replies that he cannot.

But, alas, he does. He sleeps, clutching his teddy bear Yammicles, in Nicki’s bottom dresser drawer.

Nicki sets her alarm clock an hour earlier than usual. She must get to her radio station early to complete work on a commercial. Gneeecey is already up. Nicki races to the bathroom. The tiles are plastered with wet toilet paper. Gneeecey says that according to the package, it was “bath tissue.” And he used the last roll.

Things go from bad to worse. Landlord Rico knocks on her door. Nicki begs Gneeecey to hide in the bedroom until she gives him the green light to return. Refusing, he calls out to Rico, “C’mon down!”

Amazingly, Rico sees walking, talking dog Gneeecey as being just another human. Gneeecey introduces himself as “Jack Russell” and tells Rico that he can come down anytime—he’ll be home. Rico tells a flabbergasted Nicki that Gneeecey can “hang out as long as he likes.”

When Nicki asks Gneeecey why Rico sees him as a “regular person” and not a dog, Gneeecey claims he “hypoopnotizes Earth people.”

Gneeecey doesn’t have any of his medications with him. Nicki warns Gneeecey that she expects to find the place exactly as it is when she returns home from work. He laughs.

Nicki, back in Perswayssick County, feels the need, after this, to talk to Gneeecey’s therapist “Grandma.”
