I want to tell you about an episode of Wizard Glen that I saw once. My rabbit died a few years ago, and I wanted to tell you an episode of this very infamous kid show that was very similar to what I had experienced.

I was in my room, playing on my DSi. The year was 2009. My rabbit died the other day, and it was summer vacation, and after summer, I would be in 7th grade. I was so fixated on my DSi, my mom told me it was almost midnight, and that I had to go to bed.

We only loved in a 2 bedroom house as a result of the Great Recession a year earlier, and my 4 year old brother had to sleep in my room, and I always used to wear headphones while playing quietly. We had to keep the TV on Discovery Kids for some time, so he could sleep. He liked Wizard Glen, and I loathed it. I saw the Wizard Glen intro playing. The title card was different.

The title card read “Glen Says Goodbye to Milo.”

There was no artwork, it was only words.

The screen faded to Glen’s tree house, the sky was dark and grey. The house was different, it had no front porch, the windows were boarded up, the color of the house was a chocolate color instead of the tree bark color. There were no leaves and the tree branches were broken. I kept watching, I couldn’t sleep anyway.

Narrator: It was a very depressing day at Glen’s house. *sniff* I don’t want to talk about it.

I never seen the narrator this depressed. It cut to Glen softly crying in his room. He never cried in the show.

Glen: Milo, why do you have to go? We were best friends!

I was surprised that this type of show was talking about pets dying. Anyway, Glen’s parents were talking in the kitchen about Milo.

Fora: It’s sad we have to put him down today. I just didn’t want anything to happen to him when we’re on vacation to New York.

Merkie: You’ve told me this so many times, I want to scream. What about Glen?

Fora: Well, he’ll be sad. But we had to do this anyway, he does have Kidney Failure.

Merkie: What I hate is that he keeps going up into the bathroom.

Fora: He’s lost it, Merkie! He can’t help it!

Merkie: I know, For a. I’m mostly concentrated on Glen. I wonder how he’s doing. I’ll go check on him.

Merkie walks into Glen’s room, where we see Glen is crying and his pets Nala and Shelly were trying to calm him down. Merkie walks over to Glen.

Glen: Daddy? Why does Milo need to go to sleep?

Merkie: He’s sick, Glen… when we go, Wizzie will look after you and your pets.

Glen: I’m not staying here, Milo is my friend! He can’t die without me there beside him!

I didn’t believe it. Glen was never like this in the show.

Merkie: Do you really want to be there?

Glen: Yes! I don’t care if I get scared, I LOVE HIM!!!

Merkie: Okay, Glen, calm down and stop screaming. I hope you know this is too grown up for you. Do you understand?

Glen: Yes, Daddy.

Merkie: Okay, let’s go.

I was speechless. I watched the rest anyway. It showed Wizzie going into the house, and Glen, Fora, Merkie, and Milo were walking to the pet vet. This was silent and boring. After 12 seconds of walking, Glen had a flashback. It showed a younger Glen. He was with Milo, and Glen looked happy.

Young Glen: I love you, Milo. You’re the best!

As Glen pets Milo, Milo snuggles up with Glen in return for love.

The screen fades to white, and Glen, his parents, and Milo were in a green room with a white couch. Milo has a band around one of his paws. As the doctor walked in, it was weird.

Doctor: Hello, I heard that Milo had Kidney Failure. First, we will give Milo saline. Then, we will give him the medicine that makes him pass away.

Glen: NO!!! HE’S NOT DYING!!!

Merkie: Glen, cut it out. I told you that we have to do this!

Glen: I’M NOT LETTING HIM GO!!!

Fora: Glen, stop it now! Listen to your father!

Glen: Okay, let him die, like I don’t care anymore.

I watched in horror as the saline was injected.

Doctor: Here’s the shot that puts him to sleep.

The second injection was worse. I was scared about this, whether it’s a cartoon or not.

Glen lost it. He was crying uncontrollably at Milo’s death.

The doctor checked him with her stethoscope.

Doctor: He’s gone. That was quick.

Fora, Merkie, and especially Glen, were all crying.

Glen: (Sobbing heavily) YOU WERE MY BEST FRIEND, MILO!

The screen faded to white, and this wasn’t a flashback. Glen was with Milo in a white room with no walls. The room turned dark. Suddenly, Milo faded into nothing.

Glen: Milo! Where is he? He’s gone!

Glen started to walk in a straight motion. However, the scene looked more like a flash on Newgrounds when compared to the show’s regular animation. This went on for a minute, with violin music playing in the background. This stopped when Glen was pale, and was almost skeleton thin.

Glen: (says raspy and dry) Milo…

The screen faded to Milo on a cloud sleeping. A soft heavenly voice chuckled. The screen faded to black, with Glen crying in the background. It faded back with Glen at the hospital in a coma. He was pale and looked like he was going to die.

Fora: Glen, you’re too young to die, you’re only 17.

Glen was 17 now? It looked like Milo died 3 years ago.

Merkie: We love you, no matter what.

Glen: I know. I will see Milo soon.

Nala and Shelly: Glen, we love you.

Glen: I… *Breathes heavily*

Fora: Glen?

Glen: Yes Mommy?

Fora: You… were… adopt-

Glen: What Mommy?

Fora: (Sobbing) ADOPTED!!!

Merkie: We adoped you from an orphanage. You were a puppy born with Leukemia. We couldn’t bear to see you suffer without parents, so we adopted you.

Glen: Thank… you…

Glen closed his eyes and stopped breathing. Fora, Merkie, Shelly, and Nala were all crying extremely hard. I actually felt sorry for him. The episode ended with the shot of them crying. The credits rolled silently and they weren’t that fun to watch either. It was just white text in Comic Sans scrolling on a black background. I only recognized the names of half of the people in the credits, the other half were people that I’ve never heard of. The copyright date was 2007, the year that Wizard Glen came out. The screen turned to static. I watched the static until it stopped after 4 minutes. The regular schedule came on after the episode.

The next day, I woke up and heard my brother has strep throat. My Dad had to stay home from work that day. I spent the day (with my Dad’s permission) to go on the computer and contact Discovery Kids about it. Remembering that it was 2009, I contacted Ruffman TV. Both of them didn’t know what I was talking about. I gave up and returned to my normal summer routine.

I’m still scared of that Wizard Glen episode, but not as much as before. I did some research on Wizard Glen as well, but now I don’t because I gave up.

Well, that about sums it up. If you’ve ever seen this episode before, let me know!
