The story
In an opening flashback, Tom Popper Jr. is a child whose father traveled around the world during his childhood in the 1970s.
After returning home from work one day, Tom learns that his father has died during an adventure to Antarctica, and, as per his will, has left him with a "souvenir" from his adventures in Antarctica.
An incensed Tom is forced to spend evenings taking care of the penguins and bribing the apartment clerk not to rat him out to the board, as pets are not allowed in the apartment.
