TV, ending with his Gold Fruit Tree. Felix explains how there is gold in ocean water, and that the roots of his tree are directly connected to it--once they pump water in from the ocean, the plant sucks up and extracts the gold, which is deposited in the fruit as 18k gold, and might turn into even more gold the longer it stays in the fruit. Professor and Rock immediately rush off to steal the tree.



* ArtisticLicenseBiology: Obviously, plants cannot grow ''minerals''. The cartoon is operating purely on RuleOfFunny, though.

* VisualPun: Felix's trees are used for quick visual gags. For example, a Southern Clutching Palm--or, in Felix's words, a Southpaw [[note]]a left-handed person, especially a boxer who leads with the right hand or a baseball pitcher[[/note]]--the tree is basically a giant hand that Felix throws a baseball into. Then there's a squirt plant (a plant with a pistol shaped orifice at the top) with a "little squirt" (a tiny version of the plant) nearby. Felix also crossed a Smoke Tree with a Chain Plant and got a Chain Smoker (a plant that heavily smokes cigarettes),. The Gold Fruit Tree is a literal case of "Money growing on trees".
