I was fully expecting Fugger to go for that newspaper instead of the rabbit due to his ineptitude, though the outcome for the rest of the episode likely wouldn't have been much different. At least he finally obtained the things an alpha male like him has wanted throughout the series thus far - a sweet hickey, a sweeter battle scar, notoriety from the entertained masses and a reason to buy a $10,000 motorized wheelchair.
I hope in future's time we'll also see Skid and Moe's encounter with Randy the Omnipresent Viewer and the kid whose face made Moe want to vomit.
