Mom's the Word! is the 27th episode of The Raccoons.

Premise[]

Cyril Sneer just bought a 1930s "Clearance Cyclone" limousine and is souping it up for the big antique car show. A surprise visitor shows up at Sneer Mansion, in the form of Mrs. Pig, the Pigs' mother. She is convinced that Pigs are tycoons due to their misleading letters, and so she asks them for some cash to help rebuild the old family home after its destruction by a hurricane. Mrs. Pig also brings along her old "Harvey Hurricane" Coup. When Cyril sees Bert and Schaeffer fixing it up for her, he sees some competition...

Plot[]

The Pigs' mom visits and while she erroneously believes they own the fortune at Sneer Mansion, they swiftly try to clear up the misunderstanding. Meanwhile, Cyril commissions the Pigs and Bears to prepare the Clearance Cyclone for Lady Baden-Baden's Antique Car Show. The Pigs create disaster as is customary while their mom tries to stay aloof of all wrongdoing underway. But finally, Cyril and Mrs. Pig are saved from certain disaster, although his Clearance Cyclone is destroyed.

Cyril: (Staring angrily at the pigs) You've got that right. Three little misunderstandings!
