Episode three of The Fuzz ended with a cliffhanger, Flurby (AKA Herbie) facing a huge, seemingly unbeatable opponent in a fight pit. Amazingly, Flurby wins the bout by running in circles until his opponent falls over, impressing crime-boss Rainbow in the process.
Flurby befriends Rainbow and quickly becomes a trusted member of the gang, but finds himself in too deep when his boss encourages him to start taking jellybeans. Eventually, Rainbow discovers Herbie's true identity, but keeps up the pretence, kidnapping the puppet cop's wife and infant son in the interim.
Once again, this wonderfully daft show delights with its wonderful puppets and zany humour, but it is the similarities to Brian DePalma's 1983 remake of Scarface—a favourite film of mine—that I find most irresistible: Rainbow grows more and more like Al Pacino's Tony Montana with each episode (it's amazing how menacing a furry puppet can be), and there are a couple of scenes that will seem very familiar to fans of DePalma's movie.
