== Plot ==
When Bobby's parents (a human father, and an iguana mother) go out of town, they leave him with the "meanest babysitter ever," Laura. Bobby tries to foil her plans, changing colors like a chameleon and dumping his arm, regrowing it like a lizard. However, he ends up running to hide in a closet. Laura enters the closet in an attempt to capture him, but she ends up getting swallowed by Bobby like a snake. The parents come home, and the dad retrieves Laura from within Bobby. The dad tries to pay her for what she endured, but she ends up running out of the house and into her car.
