Jimminy Lummox is the seventh episode of the third season of The Ren & Stimpy Show that originally aired on Nickelodeon in the United States on 19 February 1994.
Plot
Ren goes on a spree of cruel practical jokes.[1] When Ren tortures Stimpy's friend, Ralph the fly by tearing off his wings, Stimpy asks Ren if he has a conscience.[2] Ren does not know what a conscience is. Stimpy lends Ren his conscience which takes the form of Jimminy Lummox who whacks Ren on the head with a pipe wrench every time Ren thinks a wicked thought..[3] Soon, Jimminy is whacking Ren for occasions when Ren's anger is justified such when Stimpy washes Ren's collection of celebrity underwear.[3] As the attacks of his conscience escalate to the point where Jimminy starts dropping cars on Ren, he asks Jimminy if he has a conscience.[3] Jimminy replies he does have a conscience, which appears as Tinkergaloot, a transvestite fairy who whacks Jimminy on the head with a pipe wrench every time he whacks Ren.[3]
