The Three Mustardteers

This is not only the story of the first time the boys smoked hash together, it's also the story if how the characters originally became a trio.

This episode is a wonderful use of animation: going back in time. The ability to add in Jim Lahey with archive clips was great.

The boys reminisce about the day they met and smoked hash for the first time in 1978. Julian and Ricky save Bubbles from a bully. They walk home together and Bubbles' trailer is removed from the park. Bubbles notices one of his cats was shot with a pellet gun. They find the bully and with Lahey's help they get revenge. Without a home, Julian lets Bubbles and his kitties stay in his Grandma's shed.

This is the best episode of The Animated Series so far. Ricky's grammar is broken to the point he can't complete a sentence. Julian is respectful and open to letting Bubbles into their gang. We get to see Sam Losco when he's training to be a veterinarian, helping Bubbles with his cat for free. I hope they have more flashback episodes in the works because this was a great one.

Young Julian Ricky & bubbles 100% should be a series Episode is soooo good.
