The monkey's name was Philip, photos of whom he saved for really special occasions.

But Philip had one very special photograph - it was of Bastich secretly enjoying an extremely graphically violent action game, Soldier of Fortune II, when instead he was supposed to be playing nothing but non-violent adventure games.

Bastich, of course, vehemently denied the authenticity of the photograph, but the skeptical onlookers were not to be convinced.

This was mostly due to his brilliant invention, The Bastichizer, which consisted of an aerosol spray can, a 'believe-anything-that's-told-to-you' chemical, a ladder, a paper clip, chewing gum, day old spaghetti, a love letter, and a rubber ducky.

But soon afterwards the creature turned blue with remorse and sought the help of Moos, a world famous psychoanalyst most noted for his large collection of moldy pie crusts.

But he had read "Little Red Ridinghood" and knew what to do in order to rescue Erkki from the belly of the beast.

To Erkki's luck, 'little red ridinghood' that Moos read was from polittickly correct bedtime stories.
