At long last, Episode Six introduces us to the Chameloid Doctor, Pepe Moco. Now well known as one of the Snail Factory's most oft featured protagonists, few readers know that Pepe originated a peripheral character on "The Happy Days". After starring in his own foreign soap operas such as "As Pepe Turns" and "Pepe and the Restless", our now cherished character did not at first adjust well to the American style. For this appearance, and the next several episodes in which he appeared, Pepe had to be dubbed by character actor Lorenz Santos III, who based Pepe's distinctive voice not on a Spanish Speaker but on Swiss artist H.R. Giger. Also notable is that once he had grown the roses depicted herein, Pepe took almost 5 weeks to shed the last buds.
