Baby otters are called "pups" or puppies. Grown up otters use rocks as crude tools to smash open shellfish. I wonder what happend to Philippe.?..

"How so?" IS the punch line. Cornelius stands there thinking about all the stuff that could happen to a stuffed otter baby, and when he realizes the whole idea is absurd, he calls Teodor on it.

Ditto everything you said, except that this one _is_ funny to me. I imagine Teodor and Mr. Bear standing outside the bathroom for hours wondering what it might be, while the little otter keeps at it, whatever 'it' might be.
Now, "Philippe is standing on it", I don't get, but it *is* Achewood #1, and that Counts.

If you prefer one-strip-one-punchline jokes, PVP is right over there. Now let us enjoy the early strips for what they are: rough diamonds.

The real punchline is that you'd expect Cornelius to ask what happened. Instead, he politely inquires, "How so?" His obviously confused (or suspicious) speech leads to an awkward, humorous situation.

Could be, he's using words like 'yeah' in the previous strip, even before the tequila has taken hold.
It's a little disturbing.

Or not. He's excited at the idea of Flavour Flav visiting in the very next strip, and uses terms like "awesome!"
There is no booze involved; possibly a hangover.
I am further disturbed.

Can I just say that,
it's amazed me how few have picked up on the Cornelius Bear/Cornelius Elephant connection. (See Babar!)
The glasses are the same.

After waiting 5 years for Onstad to do something with this set-up, I'm beginning to think it's just not gonna happen.
i like to think that philippe is just being philippe, and teodor uses the opportunity to mess with mr. bear.
who of course is not fooled.
Now it's six. I'm glad though because nothing could live up to what we are thinking. At least me. It is ... it is SCANDALOUS.
Well, we finally saw closure on Darlene, so it's not impossible. That said, I think the joke is that this strip's so bizarre.
