Frederick’s beard.

Tweet

Frederick's indecisive chin doesn't seem to know if it's going to grow a beard or not, and Frederick himself doesn't seem to know if he should stay working on the ferry that takes people across the river sixteen times a day in each direction. His only other source of income is breeding rats and guinea pigs to sell on to people who keep snakes at home and need a supply of live food. He lives in hope that one day his beard will really take on a life of its own and he'll get a job in the movies.
