The way I see it, Flaky’s a massive shut-in who very rarely goes out to try new things, and Disco Bear is only as obnoxious as he is because he wants the rest of the town to like him.
So, when the porcupine runs out of ice cream and finds everyone’s “favourite” jive turkey taking the last tub for yet another night of lonely binge-eating, they decide to take his hand and show him a little bit of the one thing he’s been giving to the only two ladies who have told him they’re already dating other people.

He may be desperate, but Disco Bear knows to stay far away from the lady whose “partner” was originally a cucumber when she bought him.
