I'll go for Garden of Evil.
I think DOTR has some great dialogue in it, but it's nothing compared to the beauty and story of GoE.

Do the Rat Thing for me. Garden of Evil annoyed me to no end for some reason, probably because the "you humans hurt nature, you're evil" plot has never appealed to me.

| I'm not a big fan of that episode either, but when it's paired against "Do The Rat Thing", I'll break out the confetti in a second |

The Garden of Evil.
Jasmine learns that humans are chopping too much earth's resources and Aladdin comes in with a macheti chopping away the plants to rescue her. |

Garden of Evil. But that's the environmentalist in me talking.

I vote for Garden of Evil, because of the artistic moment. And I do feel sorry for Lord Arbutus, but someday he will return.

I don't like GoE as much as I once did, but I still prefer it over Do the Rat Thing. You all know how much I love morally ambigous characters, so of course I like the ep that shows Al's darker side.

Aww, who'd have known that the great Lord Mozenrath has a soft spot for flowers?

Garden of Evil is a very touching story, but I've seen it hundred times, and sometimes I'm in no mood to meditate on it's moral. And I just love Iago's splendid appearance in "DtRT"  .
BTW, if you mix "Garden of Evil" and "Beauty and the Beast", you'll have our falk tale "Alenkiy Tsvetochek" - "The Scarlet Flower" . There, daddy picked a forbidden flower, and his daughter had to pay for that. Only there SHE was the one who asked him to bring her that flower from his trip.

They definitely had BatB in mind when they wrote that episode; actually, I think the voice actor who played Arbutus was in a TV adaptation of BatB.

I had to go with Do The Rat Thing, because I didn't like how Garden of Evil ended. The tree (What was his name?) and Aladdin & Co. merely misunderstood one-another. The misunderstanding never got resolved. I know they re-planted the flower, but it didn't have to end that way.

Flowers are well..... artistic. But I like black dark roses mostly.
And Arbutus and I were sort of like friends, and I respect that plant lord.
