** One similar, but not quite the same, ''Looney Tunes'' scenario, ''Show Biz Bugs'', has Daffy, tired of being consistently one-upped by Bugs in a vaudeville act, pull together the most incredible drink ever; ingredients include nitroglycerin, gasoline, and gunpowder, and topped off with uranium 238. He drinks it down, jumps up and down to shake, then drops in a match.... After the ensuing explosion, an impressed Bugs tells Daffy that the audience wants more, to which Daffy's ghost replies "I know, I know, but I can only do it once!"
** This is a recycled gag from an earlier cartoon: a Porky Pig cartoon titled ''Curtain Razor''. Porky is screening prospects for a talent agency, and a RunningGag involves one character constantly barging in to talk about a "super-colossal" act. When he finally gets to perform the act, he undergoes pretty much the same act (including the devil costume), and while the ingredients may not be exactly the same, the match and result are identical. Porky is stunned in amazement for the first and only time in the cartoon. Then, the ghost of the character walks back in and, like Daffy, says, "I can only do it once."
** Yet another Daffy example occurs in the cartoon ''Mexican Joyride''. Daffy enters a Mexican bar, and, after an [[FireBreathingDiner encounter with some of the local cuisine]] demands something to put the fire out. The bartender hands Daffy a glass of tequila, which he quickly downs - and then stiffens into a rigor mortis like state. The bartender picks Daffy up and chucks him into a nearby pile of similarly frozen patrons.
