When Giraffe moves to the jungle, the other animals, and even a human ("Smartest species? Yeah, right"), keep mistaking him for a chair and sitting on him. Giraffe is too afraid to speak up...until nature's call ("I've got to pee!") forces him to take a stand. This well-spun tale's slapstick is all the funnier for the cast's dopey facial expressions.
