What can possibly be said about an eight-legged squid that can juggle and dance on stage? Only that it happens in cartoons? Pretty much. This minor character was merely trying to entertain the ruffians of the Rat Trap by putting on a bit of a circus act. Honestly, he would have had much better luck under the sea with Sebastian the crab, and if I'm not mistaken, he does appear in The Little Mermaid a few years later. For now, he's trapped in London and probably under some contract with this seedy pub to do what he can before having the audience threaten to kill him. Dawson, however, seemed the only patron to enjoy the show by applauding at the end of his performance.
