One of the more interesting nonhumans in the show is Joanna, the prize $1,000 boa constrictor from the "Our Furry and Scaly Friends" pet store in the Lawndale Mall. From the way the snake is drawn, it looks like a Burmese python, about 8 feet long. Thanks to Quinn (and Joey), Joanna was able to make her escape from the store, and the conclusion of "It Happened One Nut" does not reveal if she was recaptured. What if she wasn't, and is still on the loose in Lawndale?
It would be interesting to toy with Joanna as intelligent, perhaps even magical and capable of speech. Maybe she is an offspring of Jörmungandr who came through the wormhole behind Good Time Chinese. Maybe she's from Harry Potter's universe, a lost or outcast mascot of Slytherin. Even without that, hunting (or avoiding) a live, large python creeping around Lawndale would make for an interesting adventure.
