I thought the final episode was the episode with the vet and Courage's parents. Dang that show had the widest range of emotions, even wider than the simpsons, and that has 663 episodes.

[@perturbedbatman2009]

I thought the same. That is the only episode of Courage that legit made me cry at one point (having been a kid at the time, seeing Courage's parents being forcibly taken from him when he was so young made me think of what I would do if that happened to my own parents and that is what made me cry).

[@AestheticGamer]

It's part of the final episode, but not the "final" episode. Courage airs in 20 minute blocks with two 10 minute episodes (with two exceptions in its 52 episode run, as two episodes are the full 20 minutes), the final episode the "Remembrance of Courage" is the first half of the final episode, and "Perfect" was the second half of the final episode.
