Here's the thing... He's right! Mr. Lodge was showing off his horse collection to a snooty magazine editor and found out that his horse collection is boring with a capital "B." Then Archie shows up with his elephant and Mr. Lodge realizes that he has something that's interesting enough to impress the art critic. Off he runs to bring back the critic and Archie is the golden child for once!
End of story, right?
Not quite. Archie then remembers that there are tons of vintage animal treasures at that flea market and decides that Mr. Lodge will be putting him in his will if he brings back enough of them! The results aren't pretty!
Oh Archie! When will you learn about moderation??
