"This is sloppy detective work, even for you" implies that Cuthbert is frequently getting involved in sloppy detective work.
This whole thing was a ride from start to finish, not unlike Cuthbert and Asigal's skate contest.

It might be worth mentioning that the original was by Darren Nesbit. Putting it through a free-to-use 3D character program and recording in such a way that the volume fluctuates to the point of clipping is really a poor attempt to disguise it.

Thanks Shennanigma, you are right I did not credit DARREN NESBIT for the original music - However I do have his personal permission to use this song for this project - sorry about the volume fluctuation, I am not a professional - I also happen to also have a licence for Muvizu that I paid for and I am in no way trying to disguise anything so what is your point?

I love how every non-solid substance is made of either olives or poopy.

The style is a tad messy, but the action scene toward the end had some nice flow. I'd definitely like to see your skills developed a little more in the future.

totally fair, I've done the animation for the rest of it already and it does get better

A fascinating character study disguised as a short piece of comedy.
In the first part, Towel Boy's image and gimmick are introduced in a light-hearted atmosphere, post traditional "Damsel in distress" scenario, an obvious nod to the silver age of comics.
In the second scene, the light is quickly cast away as the gimmickry gives way to what would more realistically happen in a life-or-death scenario; Towel Boy's mentor pays the price for his protege's lack of discipline and emphasis on image. This leads Towel Boy down a dark path; clearly an homage to the darkening of comics in the '90s and '00s.
We see the effects of Towel Boy's time of regret in the third scene, wherein he's completely lost his mind; he's capable enough of maintaining a straight-laced guise long enough to penetrate a family's sanctum before cutting loose and teaching them the hard way that their heroes are people, and people will betray them, predicting the trend of mentally damaged characters playing protagonist roles more frequently in the '10s.
The last act shows Towel Boy coming full circle, having learned much in his time as a hero and emerging all the stronger for it. Gone is the showy gimmickry of old, giving way to creative problem-solving without resorting to violence right away. A hopeful note to end on, and a word of plea to creators for more heart and purpose in their coming works.

Some dude eats shit and pops a boner, absolutely fantastic.
