This being the first Untalkative Bunny episode I ever watched I am of course totally biased
towards singing its praises. As an introduction into the Untalkative Bunny underworld it exposes
the novice to many things that you will soon learn are quintessentially Untalkative. Among
the most notable are the Untalktivisms, or facial expressions that
Untalkative pulls, especially when on the phone. No need for words when feelings wash over
your face like the quickened stages of an Asian bird flu epidemic.

Untalkative Bunny is using too many appliances at the same time and, perhaps he shares the
same power grid as most of the northern states of America and parts of Canada, the power
goes out.

Noteworthy in this episode is the fact that although the automated telephone help
explicitly instructs that 'if your power is out press 3', Untalkative Bunny in actual
fact presses what would be on any normal phone, the number 5. Viewers can draw two
conclusions from this; that Untalkative Bunny perhaps has never received academic
training, or rabbits have no head for numbers. Regardless of his confusion,
Untalkative still manages to get through to the next stage where instructions are
given that he has blown a fuse (the word fuse has to be heard to be believed) and
for him to find a switch in the basement, and for him to go give it a good switchin'.
Cue the jazz!

Untalkative Bunny's friend Emu seems to be occupying him or herself by making a big pile
of compost and putting worms in it. Debate has been started over whether this is to be
called 'compost' or a 'worm farm' and the webmasters will perhaps need to confer with
an outsider on the exact definitions of either style of gardening. Either way, it is
doubtful as to whether this proves that Emu cares for the environment and tends gardens,
something that his or her lack of tool-manipulating appendages would make into a difficult
job, and in fact it is more likely that Emu grows his or her own worms for later pecking
to save regular trips to the worm market, where despite the wonderful variety of
worm-types available, it is all too often difficult to park which turns the whole
event into a bother.

Untalkative Bunny finds a switch and is unrepentant in his unmitigated waste of
electricity.
