Vic and Sade – Sleepers Beware, Russell. 440204.

Vic and Russel talk about the sleeping flora and fauna that laies dormant on these chilly winter days, only to enter their house to discover Mr Sludge asleep on the davenport. Sade doesn’t want the slumbering neighbor to be disturbed, but despite her best effort, Vic and Russel find excuses to enter the room where Mr Sludge is sleeping.

It’s all too tempting. The two plot how they can pull a prank on their neighbor. The idea to draw a moustache on their guest is created, but will the watchful eye of Sade catch them at it? Will Mr Sludge wake up? What defense might they come up with once their fun is found out? Despite his conspiracy in the plan, Vic denies all involvement and leaves poor Russel to the wolves to face the wrath of
Sade alone.
