I really like this episode. I especially like the song.

When the cops stopped by to eat, the crooks were forced to serve the cheese chowder that Monty had been making. They ended up liking it so much that they continued to come back for more.

Gadget attempts to help out a down-on-his-luck inventor repair his broken inventions, only to find that his cat is the one purposely sabotaging his inventions in order to make the inventor think he needs her for good luck.

It's easily the best episode of the series. It has tense atmosphere, what kid shows like this usually don't have, atypical progression and above all: character development. The scene in the kid's room was my favourite.

One of the funniest moments from the episode is when the Pirates capture Chip and Gadget. They are thinking of what to do with them, and one of the Pirates suggests one of the most absurd ideas: dressing them up as bunnies and dipping them in chocolate.
