Squatsie - The name of a two-foot tall painted
ceramic garden gnome with a pointy red cap owned by gay lawyer Will Truman (Eric
McCormack) on the sitcom WILL & GRACE/NBC/1998-2006.
"Squatsie" was a beloved memento from Will's childhood that symbolized a happier
time in his life prior to his parent's divorce. Will and his brother bought the
gnome for their parents when Will was nine years old.
On episode No.90 "Went to
a Garden Party" Will gets excited about planting flowers in his apartment's
community garden area, and so he brings "Squatsie" to place next to his
garden plot.
Unfortunately, the gnome gets broken when Will's best friend Grace Adler (Debra
Messing) accidentally shatters the gnome when she swings at a buzzing bee with
her large shovel.
Frantic to cover up her mistake, Grace blames the broken gnome on a mean
neighbor (Peter Mackenzie) who also planted flowers at the site. When Will hears
about the Mean Guy, he returns to the garden at night and pees on the man's
flowers.
While Will is "Watering" his neighbor's garden, the alleged Mean Guy appears out
of nowhere, blows a whistle, accuses Will of misconduct and threatens to call
the cops. Fortunately, Grace arrives on the scene and confesses to being the
"Gnome Wrecker."
