Mr. Pops, climbing up the side of the tiger cage to what he thought was safety has discovered too late that he was actually climbing into a trap, for waiting up above was Fee Fi. Wait a minute. I thought Fee Fi was on the ground. Yeah, he held the tiger back so that Della Contessa (who actually was on top of the cage, unlike our giant friend who's there now) could lower the trapeze down so that Tracy and Agent Ennen could be pulled to safety. What is Fee Fi even doing up there? Taking a smoke break? Eating his lunch? Lowering steaks down to the tiger? Fishing for tigers? What are you doing up there man? Oh well, I guess it really doesn't matter. What really matters is that Mr. Pops is still packing heat and ready to live up to his name. (I only hope that Fee Fi can complete that wrestling move he seems to be trying on the nefarious clown before said clown pumps him full of lead.)
Before Fee Fi can complete the move, Mr. Pops pulls the trigger (and seems to have given him the patented Cartwright shot to the shoulder, so he should pull through just fine). Now, he might have thought that shooting the giant who was going to throw him into the cage, or break his back, or whatever he was planning to do, was a good idea, but therein lies the problem. You see, Mr. Pops, what you did is equivalent to the hero telling the villain to let go of the girl while said villain is standing next to a cliff. Sure, the villain will let the girl go, but since the hero was not too specific about where, the poor girl is going over the edge of the cliff. Perhaps you should have thought about that before you shot the guy holding you over the tiger cage. That way, you might not have been dropped into the tiger cage. (It's very likely that you would have ended up there eventually, but what an adventure that would have been.) Oh well. I hope you have a steak in your pocket because the tiger already missed out on one meal today and I don't think he's going to let that happen a second time. (Plus there's still the unresolved issue of the mysterious panther.)
