Okay, so the origin story is that Dexter was the, in a manner of speaking, not favorite child of his parents and for Christmas, he got a computer chip that would make his computer run faster and better. He needed a code to access the internet and, while trying to find it, his cat stepped on the keyboard, putting in a code. To activate the code, it needed to be deleted. Dexter unwittingly hit delete and he was sucked into the computer, where he became Freakazoid!
"Can I go put it in?" "OK, hon, but only in your computer!" One thing I love about revisiting childhood cartoons is coming across the adult jokes that went over my head more than 25 years earlier.
