Season 4
Season 4 is the fourth season of We Can Fix Pawbert, consisting of 24 episodes. It marks the series' most significant tonal shift, abandoning action for intimate slice-of-life character development as Pawbert is released from prison and begins rebuilding his life.
"I'm loud now. I'm determined. I'm... here. Really here." — Pawbert Lynxley
Overview
Eight months after the Lionheart incident, Pawbert completes his sentence at ZCF and is released. Luther reveals his full name—Luther Pawthorne—and invites Pawbert to move into the mansion. The season chronicles Pawbert's reintegration into society: obtaining identification, opening bank accounts, enrolling at GYU, choosing Social Work, finding employment at Snarlbucks, and building friendships outside the pack.
Key milestones include Nick and Judy's permanent move into the mansion, the establishment of the Pack Charter, the introduction of Luther's parents Maris and Harlan, and the creation of The Chart—Nick's comedic masterpiece tracking Luther's recovery from a ZSI injury.
