Summary
Edit
The babies go to an ice-show while taking a lizard along with them.
Recap
Edit
Tommy was checking angelica's breakfast at a comment Angelica makes at breakfast about the dinosaurs being extinct and expresses his concern to the other babies of the possibility of Reptar being extinct too. After an accidental suggestion by Chuckie that he's "hiding," the babies look for him in the backyard and discover a lizard which looks exactly like him and come to assumption that it is Reptar's child. To keep him a secret from the grown ups, Tommy hides the lizard inside his diaper while the babies ponder what to do with Reptar's Baby. A commercial for "Reptar on Ice" suddenly plays, to the shock of the babies and Stu decides to take them all. The babies are now thrilled because they can now "return" the lizard to its "father."
As they arrive at the ice show, Leo, the actor portraying "Reptar," shows his outrage at the theme of the show to the manager, Harry, and how he questions why he chose to play the part due to his dislike of children, lizards, and his inability to ice skate. The performance begins and as it continues, the adults fall asleep; the babies then take this time to give the lizard to "Reptar." They go onto the ice and ride on the props to catch up to him. They get caught in the midst of a scene and inadvertently interrupt the performance; Leo tries to continue performing, but freaks out and runs off when Tommy shows him the lizard. Stu gets on the ice and picks up the babies, to the audience's applause. The lizard however, escapes from Tommy's diaper and crawls into Stu's pants, getting one last laugh from everyone.
Quotes

Lyrics
Edit
- I'm just a dinosaur, I don't know what I'm for. I like to stomp and roar! Hey! I'm just a dinosaur!
- Reptar, Reptar, Gotta find that Reptar! Reptar, Reptar, did you see a Reptar?
- Dinosaur! Dinosaur! Ancient enemy of man. You will pay for your destructive tendencies! You will pay for our terror. Dinosaur! Dinosaur! Aincient enemy of man. Above it all, when you slap up the rest, and the possibility is not much to say. I HO!! Reptar! (repeated)
- Hey, there's some kids on the ice, What's a Dinosaur to do, when's there's kids on the ice. Quick, somebody call their MOM!
Trivia
Edit
- Spike does not appear in this episode.
- Angelica only appears in the beginning when she tells everyone about the death of the dinosaurs.
- This is the first time when one of the babies try to hide an animal in their diaper. Tommy hides the lizard inside his diaper, and shows feelings of awkwardness and pleasure from the lizard's movements. Chuckie hides the lizard too and expresses feelings of discomfort. The other episodes that has them do this is Faire Play, Chuckie's Duckling, and Rugrats in Paris: The Movie.
- The Reptar costume in this episode is more realistic and convincing compared to other episodes featuring a Reptar suit, with the mask completely hiding the wearer's face and the mouth moving very realistically (in contrast to the usual open-face Reptar suits other performers have used.)
- John Schuck voices Reptar
