I think this was the first time we saw a bit more of Wilt's character, really. I mean, we'd always seen him as that up-beat happy go lucky red dude that's good at sport, but in this episode, it was fun to see him acting so competitive side. And that shot of him stretched out on the bed is to die for...

I love that "Lean, mean, muscle machine line as well". Perhaps Wilt isn't as humble as we thought, ah?

That's probably my favorite episode as well(since I consider GWH to be a movie, rather than an episode), for those same reasons! I love seeing Wilt's competitive, show-off side, which he keeps hidden most of the time. It's great to see him want something badly enough to stick up for himself and not give in to the others once in awhile, and along with other things he's done from time to time, like back-handing Bloo in "Eddie Monster", or pulling that somewhat twisted practical joke in "Nightmare On Wilson Way", it gives a bit of insight in what Wilt must have been like before he got hurt and was separated from Jordan, and apparently made that vow to himself never to hurt, let down or disappoint anyone else, ever again. It gives us just a little inkling of that "old Wilt" that Jordan knew as a kid, self-confident and determined and in-charge, rather than obsessed over how his actions might upset someone or cause trouble for someone. That response to Bloo's pitiful begging act was just so absolutely perfect in its coldness-"Ya know...I thought about that and...the thing is....I REALLY DON'T CARE!"
