The ninteenth episode of the second season of ''WesternAnimation/TheLooneyTunesShow''.

----

!! This episode provides examples of:

* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: Reconstructed; for most of the series, Taz is little more than a dog who doesn't speak and has no sentient intelligence. In this episode, not only does Taz speak, but he is back to his classic incarnation. This can be attributed to AnimalTalk to a degree, as the only ones he speaks prominently with are Sylvester and Tweety, who themselves only speak directly to Hugo and Beaky Buzzard but nobody else.
* AndCallHimGeorge: This trope is surprisingly not played by Hugo the Abominable Snowman, who was the TropeNamer and [[TropeCodifier Codifier]]. Instead, it's played straight by Junyer Bear, whom Pa implies has happened before.
* BigThinShortTrio:
** The main trio of pets consists of Taz (Big), Sylvester (Thin), and Tweety (Short).
** The Three Bears consist of Junyer (Big), Ma (Thin), and Pa (Short).
* CatsHateWater: Sylvester. When he, Taz, and Tweety escape from the river, Taz tells him he hates water, and Sylvester tells him "[[DeadpanSnarker Yeah, and cats really love it]]."
* CirclingVultures: Zig-zagged with Beaky Buzzard. When he finds Taz, Tweety, and Sylvester, they expect to be eaten by him, but he tells then that he's come to rescue them. When Sylvester asks Beaky how he sustains himself, Beaky tells them that he rides a slow moving hot-air balloon and he doesn't always get to the victims he tries to save in time.
* ADayInTheLimelight: This episode focuses on Taz, Sylvester, and Tweety as they try to make their way back home while evading Blacque Jacque Shellacque.
* DyingDeclarationOfLove: A non-romantic example; when Taz, Tweety, and Sylvester get captured by Jaccque and boxed, Sylvester confesses that if this is their final moments, he loves the both of them, especially Tweety.
* EgomaniacHunter: This is what Jacque appears to be.
* ExactWords: While changing his car's flat tire, Pa tells Ma not to start the car until after he says "Start the car". Upon hearing him, Ma starts the car, [[AshFace resulting in Pa getting a face full of soot]].
* ExplainExplainOhCrap: This line from Sylvester after he, Tweety, and Taz escape from Jacque by uncoupling the caboose from the rest of the train:
-->'''Sylvester:''' Now all we have to do is relax in our own private car as we roll down the tracks... out of control and in the wrong direction!
* ExtremeOmnivore: Taz. When Bugs feeds him a bowl of dog food, Taz pours out the dog food and eats the bowl instead.
* FormulaBreakingEpisode: This episode involves Taz, Sylvester, and Tweety journeying home a la ''Film/HomewardBoundTheIncredibleJourney'' while meeting other ''Looney Tunes'' characters that haven't been used on the show before, instead of the regular duo of Bugs and Daffy. This episode also lacks a B-story or Merrie Melodies music video to go with it.
* GooGooGetup: When Junyer decides to make Taz, Sylvester, and Tweety his new pets, he dresses them in bonnets and diapers.
* HandcarPursuit: Jacque uses a handcar to chase the pets after they hop aboard a freight train.
* ICantBelieveImSayingThis: This line from Tweety after Sylvester explains his plan for getting home to him and Taz.
-->'''Tweety:''' You're a genius, puddy tat! ''({{Beat}})'' Whoa! I can't believe I just said that!
* MythologyGag: After Taz escapes from the river, he says "[[WesternAnimation/TazMania Taz hate water.]]"
* NeverMyFault: This exchange when Taz, Tweety, and Sylvester are riding Beaky's hot air balloon:
-->'''Sylvester:''' You know, at times like this, I wonder why we ever fought at all.\\
'''Tweety:''' Well — it usuawwy as a wot to do with you twyin' to eat me, an' me twyin' not to be eaten.\\
'''Sylvester:''' Yeah, I can't remember either.
* NotNowKiddo: Pa Bear is trying to replace a flat tire on his car, and after he does so, he makes Ma and Junyer play a game where nobody talks until they get to the Grand Canyon. Ma tries to tell Pa something, but Pa insists that neither of them say anything. When he starts up the car, he pulls away before he gets the car off the jack, resulting in the car's front bumper coming loose. Ma then tells Pa this, and Junyer tells her "You lose, Ma!"
* PottyFailure: Invoked; to escape from the Three Bears, Tweety pours a bottle of milk down Junyer's diaper so that Pa will have to stop at a gas station to change Junyer.
* RailCarSeparation: At one point, Taz, Tweety, and Sylvester attempt to escape from Jacque by boarding a freight train. Jacque catches up to them, and chases them to the caboose. Taz bites the coupling between the caboose and the hopper, causing the caboose to roll away from the train. Taz, Tweety, and Sylvester escape from Jacque, but the caboose rolls down the mountain and sinks into a river.
* RailroadTracksOfDoom: While walking across a railway bridge, Sylvester gets his foot caught in the tracks, and a train approaches him. Tweety isn't strong enough to lift Sylvester out, so Taz has to do it before the train can run Sylvester over.
* ShaggyDogStory: Taz, Tweety, and Sylvester try to evade Jacque as they make their way back home. They get caught near the end of the episode, but it is soon revealed that the reason Jacque was trying to catch them was so he could take them home in exchange for the mechanical bull that Sam sent him.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: Taz, Tweety and Sylvester have to work together to get back home and evade Jacque, which isn't easy because Sylvester regularly tries to eat Tweety, and Taz will try to eat anything he comes across.
* WearingItAllWrong: After Taz, Tweety, and Sylvester escape from the Three Bears, they wear the diapers that Junyer put on them on their heads to protect them from the hot sun while roaming the desert.
* WhatTheHellHero: While onboard the train, Sylvester and Tweety fall asleep. As they sleep, Taz puts them on a plate and seasons them so he can eat them. When Sylvester and Tweety wake up, they call Taz out for trying to eat them, saying that now that they're a team, they're not supposed to eat their teammates.
