Return to base.
1976: Ukariah Bunny is born, and for the next couple of decades or so, leads
a pretty uneventful life. He does, however, exhibit strong leadership
qualities as he grows up, and (as has already been mentioned) starts
sporting an eye patch over his left eye at the age of eighteen on the
advice of his eye doctor, since he developed a vision problem, and
thinks that this will correct it. He figures, anyway, that even if it
doesn't, it makes him look more dangerous... and it might give him an
edge when auditioning for shirt commercials. Among his friends growing
up are Catastrophe, Barb, and Rebecca.
1989: Uke discovers the underground passages in the Perfecto Forest, and
thinks these would make a cool hideout for games of hide and seek.
He doesn't yet know how right he'll be. With the help of Catastrophe,
Rebecca, and a few others, he perfects the tunnel system that will,
in a few short years, turn out to serve a more serious purpose.
1992: When the strange events start happening, Uke figures the best thing to
do is go into hiding, which he does, deep within the underground
system. Shortly over time, he organizes the small but fiercely loyal
resistance movement, whose goal is to overthrow the Lord High Mayor and
bring some sort of order out of the chaos that engulfs Perfecto Plaza.
Unfortunately, their initial training sessions are disasters, and it's
only when Fala Fume and Sheryl the Loon (who arrive from an uncharted
mountain region) show up and organize their training that the pieces
fall into place.
1993: While scouting the Mayor's headquarters, Uke rescues his old pal
Rebecca, literally, from his clutches, and spirits her away to the
underground hideout, where she remains for the next three years.
Because of this, the Mayor puts a death sentence on both Rebecca and
Uke.
1996: Uke and the others meet the Tiny Toons for the first time, and once
both groups get over the shock of their similarites, they hit it off
famously. The only exception seems to be between Uke and Alex Redolence,
who develop an instant animosity, although that is soon resolved.
Once the Mayor is defeated (they think), Ukariah assumes the office
at the request of Rebecca (who would actually inherit the job, except
she doesn't want it) until elections can be held ("Parallel Parking").
Uke quickly assembles his ragtag group into a makeshift government,
who waste no time restoring peace and tranquility to Perfecto Plaza.
The only dark cloud on his horizon seems to be the disappearance of
the city's treasury, so he summons Rebecca back from Acme Acres. (Of
course, the Toonsters come along for the ride, accompanied this time
by Bugs Bunny, whom Uke is a longtime fan of!). As it turns out, the
treasury isn't so much missing as right under their noses! In the
interim, he's also designed and commissioned a statue of the Toonsters
and Alex to be placed prominently in the city park; and Rhubella
suggests he oughta get over his infatuation with rats (namely, her!)
and take up rabbits as a hobby (namely, Barb!!). Barb is only too
willing to oblige him... a fact which initially unnerves the otherwise
fearless bunny!!! ("Parallel Bars...") Later on, he, Barb, and an
injured Catastrophe visit Acme Acres and discover that the Lord High
Mayor wasn't really defeated after all, causing Alex and the Toonsters
to revisit Perfecto Plaza one more time, where they learn that, in
fact, the Mayor wasn't even the Mayor to begin with! Once that's
resolved, Uke, Barb, Catastrophe and Rebecca return permanently to
Perfecto ("The Rat Stuff").
