In Magilla Gorilla, the protagonist spent his time languishing in the front display window of the Mr. Peebles' pet shop, eating bananas and being a drain on the businessman's finances. Mr. Peebles marked Magilla down considerably, but he was only ever purchased for a short time, typically by some thieves who needed a gorilla to break into a bank or by an ad company looking for a mascot for their new product. The customers always ended up returning Magilla, forcing Mr. Peebles to return their money. The only customer who was truly interested in obtaining the trouble-prone ape for good was a little girl named Ogee ("Oh Gee!"), who lamentably never had enough money.
