0045 - Dad at Racetrack (Patreon)

I swear I don't plan out these oddly themed weeks. We had "Patti and Selma week", "Happy Little Elves week" and now..."Father and son at dog racetrack week". 

A couple more fun season one hallmarks here - blue hair (later phased out of non-main characters significantly) and strange single-line facial hair (which does occur later, but rarely.)

As he appears in the episode, we don't see his bottom half. One of these days I'll have the confidence to give one of these partial characters robot legs or a wheel or something, just to mix things up a little.

Despite being a terrible father, he seems like a cheery fellow.
