Question about "Sidebottom Blues" episode

Hi there everyone! I was just on Youtube, watching the "Sidebottom Blues" episode of Fraggle Rock (on Youtube, the episode is broken up into 3 segments). Anyhow, my question is about something Sidebottom says. After Boober makes the decision to let Sidebottom take over him so he'll be more fun, and Sidebottom/Boober announces to the rest of the Fraggle Five that not only will he play "leader" in the game of Follow the Leader, but that he'll get Junior Gorg to play with them, he leaves Gobo and Wembley's cave. Outside the cave Boober and his fun side separate. Boober questions Sidebottoms idea and makes the comment "Fraggles don't play with Gorgs". Its Sidebottom's response I have a question about. Does he say "Isn't it erotic?". I may be totally hearing things, but it really does sound like Sidebottom uses the word "erotic". I just find that strange, hearing that word come out of the mouth of a Fraggle. Can someone please verify this for me? On Youtube, its at the beginning of "Sidebottom Blues, Part 2".

P.S.: For fans of Sidebottom, theres an awesome pic on deviantArt of him, by someone calling themseves emogarg. Its him as "Dr. Fun". You really should check it out, its an awesome drawing!:excited:

I think he's saying "isn't it a riot?" which makes sense. Sidebottom thinks everything is a riot! :halo:

Wow, I should check that out. I've seen the other two Sidebottom episodes, but not that one.
Haha, that's a pretty funny thaught Patricia!
:wink: Especially for Boober. Although, Sidebottom is his fun side, and therefore delites in doing things Boober wouldn't do...
:halo:

I think Sidebottom probably said either a riot , but probably ironic.
