The carport covered couch behind the Eddy is home to Bobby and an old cat that pisses on the cushions. Lenny and his pig are nowhere to be seen. Bobby tells Jack how one time “Spike”, that’s the pig's name, anyway... Bobby was passed out drunk on the couch and awoke to the pig biting through the knee of his corduroy pants while he was having his way with the bottom half of Bobby’s leg, all the while Lenny stood aside laughing. Bobby says Lenny always laughs, he’s a happy drunk except when the pigs (cops) come round.
Spike will eat anything. Mostly, Lenny feeds him stale bread from the dumpster from behind the bakery. Lenny always says he’s gunna eat Spike for Christmas, yet many a boxing day has past and Spike is still leaving steaming pig-shit on Baker St.
