Courage the Cowardly Dog

Tick is a small black clown-like bug that is seen gnawing and chewing on Muriel's giant toe like food. Muriel's toe nails seem to be extremely filthy, rotten and cracked which doesn't bother to the insect. It only appears in the Season 3 episode, Swindlin' Wind.

Appearance[]

The Tick appears as if he's a hillbilly, speaking with a goofy, stereotypical southern accent and wearing a farmer's hat, along with gardening boots. 

Biography[]

The Tick was seen biting Muriel's dirty toe. Courage paints the tick with bug-spray which sedates it and relieves Muriel's pain as she stomps her foot on the tiny insect. Later on, Courage finds out from Shirley that in order to lift the curse and get Muriel and Eustace to stop swindling one another, one of them must perform an act of kindness. Courage gets Eustace to become jealous of Muriel having the tick, and Eustace lets the tick move onto his toe instead. Having seen what appears to be an act of kindness (not to mention that Eustace has ended up swindling himself), Shirley lifts the curse. Eustace plays a card game with the tick, with the stakes being that if the tick wins, he can move up to Eustace's earlobe, and if the tick loses he has to hit the road. The tick wins.
