Bo-bobo claims he found nothing wrong, but Rice starts screaming...[[ComicallyMissingThePoint because the x-ray shows some kind of growth on his ear]].

* Jof the cat from the ''WesternAnimation/WhatACartoonShow'' short "Help!" by Creator/BrunoBozzetto sees a doctor about a sore finger. The peculiar doctor wants an X-ray, and indicates a large container of disclosing fluid for Jof to drink. Jof downs all the fluid, which doubles his body mass, then stands behind the x-ray screen. At first, Jof's skeleton appears normal, but Jof develops hiccups that rearrange his bones into a spider-like pattern, then a Jolly Roger pattern, and lastly a hammer and sickle symbol. The last one makes the doctor forsake his oath to "above all, do no harm." Jof runs for his life.
