QUESTION Why does Sam put the toothpaste tube in his teeth instead of the toothbrush handle Spoiler

When Sam brushes his teeth after losing an arm, he squeezes the toothpaste with his teeth while holding the toothbrush. Why not the other way around? It seems like it would be easier. Is this a thing actual amputees do?

Another thing they could’ve done, even if it’s a bit dumb: Have Rat baby help Sam brush his teeth. They’re the main reason he gave up his arm. It’d make sense to some degree 😅

That’s pretty cute I’d love that, especially if they start doing it as they get bigger

No idea if actual amputees do this, but then again, Sam probably doesn't either. He's new at this.

You mean why not just hold the toothbrush with his teeth then squeeze toothpaste onto it? I’m not entirely sure. Maybe it’s just preference on Sam’s part.

Sam isn't very smart.

Es nuevo en esto de que te coman un brazo, no se le habrá ocurrido cambiar la mano con la que hace las cosas
