It is estimated that there are some 10 quintillion insects alive

at any one time.

But forget about them. This is about ME - Lloyd.

I'm a fly!

Umph.

I want that ceiling spotless, Lloyd.

It's not every day your oldest brother comes to visit.

Well, you can say that again. I've never even met him.

Oh, you have. You were a maggot at the time.

Lloyd moved out before you pupated.

I moved out before I pupated?

Oh, not you! Your big brother.

He's named Lloyd, as well. What?

When you have hundreds of kids,

you tend to reuse names after a while.

Huh? How many Lloyds are there?

Oh, well, let's see. Now you're asking.

Uh, well, there's you.

Uh, there's Lloyd, obviously.

Then there's also Lloyd,

and Lloyd,

and, uh, Lloyd.

There's also Lloyd,

and, uh, Loyd with one L.

Are there any more PBs?

Oh! Only you.

It was so much easier when we switched to using letters.

Hm. Hm.

Hello? Anyone home?

Oh! Lloyd's here!

But I'M Lloyd!

Me!

It'll get confusing with another Lloyd here.

We could call the other one Big Lloyd.

Huh?

Why do you assume he's bigger than me?

Ooh-whoa!

Welcome home, son.

Here, meet your brother and sister, and Abacus.

Hello.

Hi! I'm PB. Ah, good to know you, PB. Go high.

Hey!

And you must be...

Oh, he's also Lloyd.

We're going to call you Big Lloyd and him Little Lloyd.

No. I'm just Lloyd.

Oh!

Don't you worry, squirt.

As far as I'm concerned, you're Big Lloyd in this house.

I won't be any trouble.

I assume you're hungry.

Come on. Crumbs are on the table.

Oh! Ho-ho ho-ho!

Oh!

Oh, home-foraged food.

I've missed this.

So, what's this I hear about you living under a bird feeder?

Whoa! A bird feeder? With birds?

Yeah, living among birds really makes you appreciate life.

They're a misunderstood predator.

I mean, when you respect them, then they respect you.

Brilliant!

I suppose the presence of a bird feeder keeping them fed helps.

Tell us more, Big Lloyd.

Let me tell you about rain.

No doubt you've seen it, but have you ever been in it?

Because I have.

Are you still thinking about your tiny crumb, Lloyd?

I am, yes. He took all the big crumbs!

He was very unreasonable.

Maybe crumbs are hard to come by when you live under a bird feeder.

Oh.

Yeah, you're right, Abacus.

Maybe I'm being too quick to judge.

Hey, squirt.

Wow!

This used to be my room.

Yeah, couldn't wait to leave it and get out into the world.

What's this? This is cool.

Uh, I made that, actually.

Yeah, his name's Floyd.

Fake Lloyd.

Is the head meant to come off? No!

Oh. What about the arm?

No! Put it down!

Here, I can fix it.

I learned a few tricks from a wasp, when I lodged in her hive.

You chew some paper first, and then you...

My comic!

You don't still read this kids' stuff, do you?

Yes! But I'd not read this one yet!

Oh, sorry, I didn't realise.

Oh! Bluebottle Battle.

Oh, is this that one you play over several games,

so the order of the cards is incredibly important

and must not be mixed up or it ruins the entire campaign?

Our campaign!

Ah, sorry.

Don't touch anything else! Let me do that.

Go away, please. Yeah, no problem.

M-my bad.

I'm a bit peckish, actually, so snack time.

This is fine. Mustn't judge.

We'll just keep him out of my room.

He'll be gone soon.

So, I was hoping I could stay for a while?

Oh, of course!

Our home is your home.

Stay as long as you like, lad.

You can sleep in your old room.

Little Lloyd won't mind, will you?

Uh, mind? Ha.

Why would I mind?

Ugh!

Aagh!

I am not happy about this.

Oh, you think I am?

I'm never going to sleep with him snoring

and you in my room.

What if he never leaves?

Maybe we can give him a bit of...

...encouragement.

Oh, thanks, Julie. We owe you one.

Just give him a small scare, enough to get rid of him.

And don't eat him.

Yeah, definitely don't eat him.

Mm-hm. OK.

Boo!

Whoo!

Oh, no!

He's ever so strong.

Little trick I learned from a vine weevil in the shed.

Now, scram! Oh! Oh.

That was very impressive.

Now what?

Of course you can stay.

Especially if it means having Abacus around more.

Oh, great!

PB'll be no trouble at all.

See you later. Me?

I'm not staying at Abacus's.

Come on, PB, I can hardly stand up straight in here.

It makes more sense for you to stay here and me to have your room.

It's my room. It's my stuff.

No way.

You could always try the direct approach.

Ah, so, Big Lloyd, ha,

when are you going to...

How do I put this?

...leave and go back to the bird feeder?

We'd love to see it.

The sooner the better.

Um...

...I don't live there anymore.

Oh.

I left there when I met this girl, Luna, so I moved into her place.

It was sweet, actually.

She'd got a plum spot in a spotty plum behind the wheelie bin.

Ugh.

Ah. So Luna must be missing you?

Oh, I wish.

She threw me out.

I miss what I had with her so much.

Guess you're stuck with me, eh?

Oh, I need another crumb.

Did you hear that, PB?

His girlfriend, Luna, threw him out.

We get them back together, he moves back in with her,

we get our rooms back!

Yes!

How do we do that?

Abacus, go find Luna.

Spotty plum, wheelie bin.

Bring her to the pancake.

PB,

let's get romantic.

Aww. I want to get romantic.

Oh, this is nice.

I haven't had pancake in ages.

What's the big occasion?

We're going to help you patch things up with Luna.

Sorry - what?!

She's coming here?! No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

It got pretty heated towards the end.

I don't know what to say to her.

Just trust me. Say exactly what I tell you to say,

when I tell you to say it.

Here she comes.

I mean, here THEY come?

There were two Lunas behind the bin.

I didn't want to get it wrong.

Why have you brought me...?

Oh! What's this big fool doing here?

Sorry, wrong Luna. I made a mistake.

You can go home.

Madame... Madam?

...allow me to escort you to your table.

Hmm.

Ha.

Uh...

...um...

I told you I was done with you.

Uh, I know, but, um,

I, uh...

Yeah. Uh...

Wow. He really does need help.

Tell her, "I hope you like pancake."

I hope you like pancake.

I don't like pancake

because I'm allergic to pancake.

It makes me really bloated and angry.

You know that.

Uh, I...

...I do know that. Uh...

Oh. I did NOT know that.

OK. Well, just go for it.

Tell her, "Your eyes shine like a silverfish

"and your smile reminds me of fresh peanut butter."

Your eyes shine like a silverfish

and your smile reminds me of fresh peanut butter.

You what?

Oh, please.

Pretend that we are not even here.

Lloyd, what is going on?!

Uh, I'm honestly not sure.

I...can I... I'm just going to check.

Squirt, what's going on?

Just... What are you doing?!

You're ruining the moment!

Who are you talking to?

Sorry. Don't mind me.

Would you two sit down?!

We're trying to rekindle your love!

Love?

Squirt, we're not a couple.

Uh...

What? But you said you lived with her,

and that you miss what you had with her.

Yeah, a sweet home, in a prime plum.

She's my landlord. Was.

I threw him out 'cause he wasn't pulling his weight.

Eating all my crumbs, breaking everything.

Yeah, he does break everything! He does eat all the crumbs!

Wait - you really think so?

What, both of you? Yes!

I guess I should try harder, then. I...

Look, I'm sorry, Luna.

I really do like your place.

Then do your bit.

Tell you what, do all the plumwork for a month,

and we'll see how it goes.

Oh, alright. Deal!

Thank you, Luna.

Thanks, squirt.

Ah, the miracle of love!

Oh! We forgot the rose petals.

Aww!

Oh, Mum, Dad, thank you for having me.

Sorry I couldn't stay longer.

Bye!

Oh! Thank goodness for that.

I thought he'd never leave!

Seriously? I thought you liked having him here.

For a bit, but it's hard to keep the cupboards full with his appetite.

We only cleaned so when he messed it up, it'd be back to normal.

One Lloyd in the house is more than enough.

Exactly!

Wait - what?!
