Looks like Gabe saw them durn Paparzzies in the second picture and they could tell by the look in his eyes that he wasn't too pleased with them, so they backed off a bit.

Tubby says "papa-who-zies? They better not come around here. I'll just have to remind them what I used to do to them micies back at grandma's place. They won't bother us anymore after that! Don't worry, sweet Samantha, we won't have any papa-who-zies following us around - and if they do we'll just take a nap and bore them to death."
