1 The Bunny Cam

When Alexis got more involved with Ted’s work, she set up a live camera where viewers could watch cute bunnies hop about at the clinic. Ted’s veterinary rival was using his sex appeal to gain more business, which was not the way Ted wanted to do things. He didn’t think it was credible to use his body to gain patients with sick pets. A live bunny cam was just the ticket to gain more website traffic.

Unfortunately for Ted, he forgot about the bunny cam and didn’t realize he could be seen in the background. He was seen sweaty and naked while the cut bunnies hopped around. Ted was mortified when he found out that he was unknowingly doing what his rival was doing.
