** Of all the Fluppies, Ozzie is the biggest one. Aside from being the one in possession of the key to get them all back to their world (which in and of itself is a huge responsibility), he not only was captured by Wagstaff and had to be rescued, but upon about to head back home and saying their goodbyes to Jamie and Claire, he is standing alone and looking heartbroken before the former gives him a hug.
