Strain Kringle

Strain Kringle is the seventh of the HTF Kringles.

Starring Roles

 * Cuddles
 * Toothy
 * Lumpy

Plot
On a winter day, Toothy stands behind a snow fort while Cuddles keeps an eye out for people to ambush up above, in a tree, with a telescope. Cuddles spies Lumpy walking along and tells Toothy to throw a snowball at him, which he does. Lumpy is hit by the snowball and grumbles angrily at the two. Instead of throwing more snow, however, Lumpy retaliates by picking up a rock and throwing it at Toothy. Toothy notices it coming towards him, so he puts a spaghetti strainer on his head for protection. The rock bounces off the strainer and flies upwards, hitting Cuddles' telescope and knocking it into his eye. Cuddles' body then falls out of the tree, landing on top of Toothy, forcing his body through the holes on the strainer he placed on his head.

Message
"Don't strain yourself this holiday season!"

Deaths

 * 1) Cuddles is impaled through the eye with his telescope.
 * 2) Toothy's body is forced through the holes of a strainer when Cuddles lands on him.

Goofs

 * When Cuddles falls out of the tree, he falls by the back and lightest part of the telescope, not by the heaviest part of the telescope (which would be the front). However, factoring in momentum may explain why he still fell backwards

Trivia

 * 1) Unlike the previous Kringles, this one doesn't have a traditional Christmas song playing in the background throughout the episode.
 * 2) If you hear closely what Cuddles says, it is possible to hear:"Hey! Throw a snowball to Lumpy". This might be the 3rd time a character says another character's name.
 * 3) This is the first Kringle to debut in several years. Also the new Kringles are broadcasted in widescreen format.
