Trivia

• The Mouse and the Lion (also called The Lion and the Mouse) is an actual Fable by Aesop, in which a lion spares a mouse he wished to eat, who later repays the kindness by freeing the lion from some ropes. However, the tale mentioned in the episode appears to have more in common with the story of Androcles, who tended a wounded lion by pulling a thorn from its paw, leading to the lion becoming tame.
