7* The entire "Granny, what big [insert facial quality here] you have!" exchange:
8-->'''The Wolf:''' So, you got the loot?\
9'''Red Puckett:''' Whoa, what big ''hands'' you have!\
10'''The Wolf:''' Oh! All the better to scratch my back with.\
11'''Red Puckett:''' And what big ''ears'' you have!\
12'''The Wolf:''' ''[increasing in irritation]'' All the better to hear your... ''many'' criticisms. Old people just have big ears, dear.\
13'''Red Puckett:''' ''[shaking her head in disbelief]'' And Granny... what big ''eyes'' you have!\
14'''The Wolf:''' ''[exploding]'' Are we just gonna sit around here and talk about how big I'm getting?! ''[leans in]'' You came here for a reason, didn't you? So tell old Granny what you've got in the basket!\
15'''Red Puckett:''' ''[angry, knowing that's obviously not Granny]'' Agh, Granny! What bad breath you have!\
16'''The Wolf:''' All right. ''[takes off the mask; Red screams and takes a step back]''\
17'''Red Puckett:''' You again?! What do I have to do, get a restraining order?!
18* Flippers and Red meet for the first time:
19-->'''Red Puckett:''' They've got us all wrong, Mr. Flippers.\
20'''Nicky Flippers:''' ''[notices Red and steps over to her]'' Oh, I don't know. You look pretty dangerous to me. What's your name?\
21'''Red Puckett:''' Red.\
22'''Nicky Flippers:''' And why do they call you that?\
23'''Red Puckett:''' Why do they call ''you'' "Flippers"?\
24''[Cuts to Flippers on the dance floor at a disco club in a flashy white suit. As the crowd chants "Go Flippers!" in the background, he does a backflip and lands in a splitz]''\
25'''Nicky Flippers:''' Ah, [[BlatantLies no reason]].\
26'''Red Puckett:''' They call me "Red" [[IconicItem because of this red hood I wear]].\
27'''Nicky Flippers:''' What about when you're not wearing it?\
28'''Red Puckett:''' ''[quietly]'' [[DeadpanSnarker I usually wear it.]]
29[[/folder]]

31[[folder:Red's Tale]]
32* Flippers is about to interview Red, who is still wearing handcuffs:
33-->'''Nicky Flippers:''' What's with the handcuffs on a little girl? Her wrists could slip right out! How about a cage?\
34'''Bill Stork:''' ''[on radio, eager]'' Bring in the cage!\
35'''Nicky Flippers:''' [[SarcasmMode I was being sarcastic.]]\
36'''Bill Stork:''' ''[on radio, dismayed]'' Sarcasm. Strike the cage...
37** And hearing the groaning moans of the others in the background.
38* In "Great Big World", one of the critters falls off a tree branch near the end.
39* A woodpecker finds Red reading a magazine in a treehouse:
40-->'''Woodpecker:''' Watcha readin', Red? ''(sees the magazine's cover)'' "Far Away Places"? Are you going somewhere far away?\
41'''Red Puckett:''' No. The world is too dangerous for me! ''[throws her hands up, exasperated, tossing the magazine away. By chance, it lands on the windshield of a passing car]''\
42'''Driver:''' Ahh! Can't see! Danger! Turn into the skid!\
43''(swerves wildly and revs his engine; the scene cuts back to a close-up of Red as we hear screeching tires and a loud crash. Red gives [[AsideGlance a very tense face]] to the audience.)''\
44'''Driver:''' I'm okay! I'll walk it off!
45** What makes it funny is that Red does not really show any reaction to the sound of the crash other than a brief AsideGlance towards the camera for a second.
46* After Red tells how she tricked the Wolf into going into the river:
47--> '''Wolf:''' You can't hold onto those recipes forever! [[AndYourLittleDogToo I'll get you and your little granny, too!]]\
48''(Present)''\
49'''Chief Ted Grizzly:''' Well, that settles it. We've got our bandit.\
50'''Nicky Flippers:''' Ah, could be. I'd like to count my chickens ''after'' they hatch.\
51'''Timmy:''' ''(oinks)'' Chickens?\
52'''Red Puckett:''' You've got to admit, a wolf? Stopping kids ''in the middle of the forest''? That's pretty creepy!\
53'''Nicky Flippers:''' Right, yes, yes. But we don't arrest people for being creepy.\
54''[[OhCrap (Two pigs go wide-eyed)]]''\
55'''Tommy:''' ''(on the radio)'' Yeah, Bruce, you know that guy we got in the tank?\
56'''Bruce:''' Uh, the creepy one?\
57'''Tommy:''' Yeah, better let him go.
58* "Be Prepared". (no, not [[WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994 THAT "Be Prepared"]]) (not [[Music/TomLehrer that one either]]) Japeth provides some comic relief for Red's story:
59-->'''Red Puckett:''' Hello! ''[She sees a mine shack across the meadow and runs towards it; Japeth is rocking on the porch as Red walks up the hill to the shack]'' Hello.\
60''[Japeth doesn't hear her and continues yodeling]''\
61'''Red Puckett:''' I'm looking for... Granny Puckett's house?\
62'''Japeth the Goat:''' ''[singing]'' Graaaaaaaanneeee Puckeeeett...\
63'''Red Puckett:''' Could you stop singing for one moment?\
64'''Japeth the Goat:''' ''[singing]'' No I can't, I wish I could, but a mountain witch done put a spell on me, 37 years agoooooooo, and now I gotta sing every thing I saaaaaaaaayyyyyy...\
65'''Red Puckett:''' ''[unimpressed]'' [[DeadpanSnarker Everything]]?\
66'''Japeth the Goat:''' ''[speaking]'' That's right.\
67'''Red Puckett:''' You just talked! Just now!\
68'''Japeth the Goat:''' Oh, did I? ''[singing]'' Did I? Dididididodadidididoooo...\
69''[Red gives a pissed off AsideGlance to the audience]''
70** Later, once Red's attempt at contacting Granny is cut short:
71--->'''Red Puckett:''' Mr. Goat, my granny's in trouble! I've gotta find a way around the mountain fast!\
72'''Japeth:''' ''[singing]'' Well you came to the right goat! ''[pops off his horns]''\
73'''Red Puckett:''' Oh, good. More singing.
74** Actually, the entire "Be Prepared" song is quite funny, when you consider how many horn sets Japeth goes through in the number, or how Red can't find a way to cut him off. Here are the horn sets he goes through in order:
75*** Bottle opener
76*** Keychain
77*** TV remote
78*** Pickle jar opener (made funnier since Red is holding out the jar that he opens with the set, and she gives an amazed look at the camera that makes the shot look like something out of a TV infomercial)
79*** A brunette wig and a pair of sunglasses
80*** A coat rack for his other horns
81*** Garden tools
82*** A clothesline (with two socks and a set of work trousers on it)
83*** What looks like an electrical generator (when this is shown, Red is standing on the left in such a way it looks like she's wearing a pair of curly long horns)
84*** A campfire that is roasting s'mores and wieners on the ends
85*** A Mohawk-style set
86* Combined with Awesome and Heartwarming, but Red seeing her Granny in the sky above her saying to "[[Franchise/StarWars Use the hood, Red! Use the hood!]]"
87* After the mine cart crashes, Red descends using her cloak as a parachute. As she comes out of the clouds, we suddenly hear the sound of a helicopter…
88-->'''Red Puckett:''' What?! ''[Japeth flies past, wearing a set of horns with helicopter rotor blades]''\
89'''Japeth:''' [[CrazyPrepared I WAS PREPARED!]] ''[flies up and away as Red looks on, bemused]''
90* Red reaches the part of her story where she finds the Wolf impersonating Granny:
91-->'''Red Puckett:''' Granny? It's me, Red. Is everything okay?\
92'''The Wolf:''' Oh. Oh yeah, sure thing. Come on in.\
93''[Cuts to Red being interviewed by Flippers]''\
94'''Nicky Flippers:''' So this Wolf, he was dressed as your grandma?\
95'''Red Puckett:''' Yes.\
96''[in flashback]''\
97'''The Wolf:''' I'm your grandma.\
98''[end flashback]''\
99'''Nicky Flippers:''' And you bought that?\
100'''Red Puckett:''' No. Not really.\
101'''Red Puckett (flashback):''' Whoa, what big ''hands'' you have! ''[cut]'' And what big ''ears'' you have! ''[cut]'' What bad ''breath'' you have! ''[cut]'' What big ''eyes'' you have!\
102'''The Wolf:''' Are we just gonna sit around here and talk about how big I'm getting?!\
103'''Nicky Flippers:''' Yes, yes, and then the fellow with the axe burst in? ''[Kirk bursts through the window and the Wolf starts saying "Whoa-whoa!", when Red waves her hands to indicate "halt"]''\
104'''Red Puckett:''' No, no! Not yet! ''[All of the action on the screen, with the exception of Red, rewinds, including the music; Kirk flies back out of the window and the glass repairs itself]'' First, I was attacked by that crazy wolf!\
105''[The Wolf corners Red in the living room with a fireplace poker]''\
106'''Red Puckett (flashback):''' Hi-yah! You crazy wolf!\
107'''Red Puckett:''' Then my Granny jumped out of the closet... ''[Granny bursts out of the closet and emits a battle cry]'' ...but she was tied up. ''[With an audible pop, Granny is bound and gagged]''\
108'''Nicky Flippers:''' And ''then'' [[Theatre/TheIcemanCometh the Axeman Cometh]]? ''[snickers]''\
109'''Red Puckett:''' You got it.\
110''[In the flashback, Kirk bursts back through the window]''\
111'''Red Puckett:''' Only, he was ''screaming''.\
112'''Kirk:''' ''[weakly]'' Aargh? ''[Red glares at him]''\
113'''Red Puckett:''' ''[angrily]'' Like a maniac! ''[Kirk starts waving his axe wildly and screaming accordingly]''\
114'''Chief Grizzly:''' Wow.\
115'''Det. Bill Stork:''' Hmm.\
116'''Nicky Flippers:''' Oh. So that was it?\
117'''Red Puckett:''' That wolf was gonna eat us all...

120[[folder:Wolf's Tale]]
121* Red and the Wolf's slow-motion [[DeathGlare stare-down]], complete with a sound-alike of [[Film/KillBill "Battle Without Honor or Humanity,"]] as they pass each other while the Wolf is heading towards the interrogation room.
122* Pretty much anything involving [[DeadpanSnarker the Wolf]], actually.
123-->'''Wolf:''' Don't I get a drink?\
124'''Chief:''' No!\
125'''Nicky Flippers:''' So, Mr. Wolf, may I call you "Wolf"?\
126'''Wolf:''' You can call me Sheila. I like long walks and fresh flowers.\
127'''Chief:''' Quit playing around, Wolf! You're looking at three to five in an old shoe with no windows! So, start singin'!\
128'''Nicky Flippers:''' Your face looks familiar.\
129'''Wolf:''' I get around the forest.\
130'''Nicky Flippers:''' What do you do for a living, Mister Wolf?\
131'''Wolf:''' I'm a shepherd. ''(Bill pounds the table, startling Wolf)'' Hey!
132** Or Twitchy, for that matter. When they find the cave exit after being chased part of the way there by bats.
133--->'''Twitchy:''' Heyboss, watchielookie!\
134'''Wolf:''' God as my witness, you will learn to speak. Hey look, a way out.\
135'''Twitchy:''' ...butthat'swhatI... ''[sighs]''
136* The way Flippers remembers the Wolf:
137-->'''Nicky Flippers:''' I remember you! Three years ago on the Stiltsken case, you were snooping around for a lead on his real name.\
138'''The Wolf:''' I was close. I was going to go with Greg. [[Literature/{{Rumpelstiltskin}} Greg Stiltsken]].\
139'''Chief Grizzly:''' Hey uh waitaminute, Flippers! You sayin' this guy's a cop?!\
140'''Nicky Flippers:''' Worse. He's a ''reporter.''
141* There is a moment during Wolf's version of the tale where what can only be called a glitch in the animation happens - While Wolf is playing basketball with a group of critters, the lighting in the animation seems to disappear for a moment, resulting in an example of bad re-reviewing the final product that would make any amateur animator chuckle.
142* The Wolf when he says Red flying hummingbirds is creepy.
143* The Wolf uses a radar gun intending to listen in on Red as she travels up the cable car. After passing over sounds of wildlife and a couple of bars of the yodeling chorus to the "Schnitzel Song", he gets a conversation between two men about one of their estranged girlfriends. Then one of them says "Shhh, up there." The camera cuts to two caterpillars having a conversation on a leaf underneath the radar dish and one of them asks the Wolf, "Do you mind?" Sheepishly, the Wolf apologizes.
144** What sells it is the confused look the Wolf has as he is listening in on their conversation.
145* Instead of pursuing Red on foot like a natural predator chasing prey, Wolf flags a taxi to chase Red in the forest.
146* According to Red, she got away from Wolf the first time by spraying him with pepper spray. In Wolf's version of the event, she sprayed him, then ''beat the ever-loving stuffing'' out of him with some well-placed karate moves.
147-->'''Flippers:''' So, you really took a ''beating''...from a little girl.\
148'''Wolf:''' ''(defensively)'' Hey!\
149''(Cut to Red standing next to a picture of herself as regional karate champ)''
150* In Wolf's side of the story, when Red used hummingbirds to carry her red hood around to trick Wolf into chasing that hood into the river, Wolf realizes that the hummingbirds lured him into running off a cliff over the river. As soon as Wolf realizes he was "hoodwinked" with literally a hood, he still keeps his composure remarking "Okay. Not cool" before falling.
151--> '''Wolf:''' ''(to Red)'' You can't hold onto those recipes forever! I'll get you and your little granny, too!\
152'''Fisherman:''' Well that's fishy.\
153'''Wolf:''' [[DefensiveWhat What?]] [[EntertaininglyWrong They're evil! I'll prove it!]]
154* Twitchy finds candles in the mine cart he and the Wolf are riding in. He holds up a stick of dynamite with a lit fuse.
155-->'''The Wolf:''' Wow, that's nice and bright. What kind of candles are those?\
156'''Twitchy:''' ''[flips the candle, says DYNAMITE]'' "[[DynamiteCandle Dee-Nah-Mee-Tay.]]" [[Film/AChristmasStory Hmm, must be Italian.]]\
157'''The Wolf:''' ''[gasps]'' [[OhCrap Lose the candle!]]
158* At the end of Wolf's tale, he reveals that Granny was already locked in the closet and tied up when he arrived.
159--> '''Chief Grizzly:''' Pretty thin, Wolf! You say the old lady was already tied up! How did ''that'' happen?!\
160'''The Wolf:''' I don't know! Maybe to make herself look innocent. I just write the news, Chief! I don't make it.\
161'''Red Puckett:''' For a reporter, you sure have a strange way of doing your job. ''[rolls her eyes]''\
162'''The Wolf:''' What can I say? I was [[RaisedByWolves raised by wolves]].\
163''(Cuts to a picture of the Wolf's sepia-toned family portrait, complete with a Ken Burns-esque iris fade onto baby Wolf)''\
164'''Chief Grizzly:''' You got a way to back this up?\
165'''Twitchy:''' ''[appears]'' I got these pictures developed, Mr. Flippers!\
166'''Nicky Flippers:''' That so? Let's have a look... ''[examines the photos]'' Hmmm... these are good... Ha... ''[shows a picture of Wolf mounted in a fish costume]'' Here's a nice one of you, Wolf.\
167'''Twitchy:''' I wanna do an expose' sometime; a gallery show. And maybe a coffee table book, 'course, I don't drink coffee. Maybe a chai tea latte book.\
168'''Nicky Flippers:''' Photos don't lie, Chief.\
169'''The Wolf:''' Good work, Twitchy.

171
172[[folder:Kirk's Tale]]
173* During Kirk's story, the lizard director who gives him his callback is presented in a circle wipe due to speaking over the phone. At the end of the conversation, he says that he has to be in a circle wipe across town. In other words, ''[[BreakingTheFourthWall he knows he's in a circle wipe]]''. The commentary mentions that only about 3 people per theater got that one.
174* When Kirk tries to "find his inner woodsman," he tries to cut down trees with an axe. Except he doesn't even know ''how'' to use it. After three attempts, he finally gets it by reading ''Chopping for Actors''.
175* As Kirk fells a bunch of trees, one nearly hits two turtles:
176-->'''Turtle:''' ''[shouting to his mate]'' RUN! ''[starts inching along with a strained neck]''
177* Flippers sums up Kirk's story as:
178-->'''Nicky Flippers:''' So, you didn't ''jump'' through the window, you were ''pushed.''\
179'''Kirk:''' Yes.\
180'''Nicky Flippers:''' By a ''tree.''\
181'''Kirk:''' Yes.\
182'''Nicky Flippers:''' Because you were ''pretending'' to be a woodsman.\
183'''Kirk:''' Uh, that's right!\
184'''Nicky Flippers:''' To sell ''foot cream.''\
185'''Kirk:''' I got the callback!\
186'''Nicky Flippers:''' And good for you. Well, I think it's safe to say our thespian friend here knows the least about anything of anyone in this room.\
187'''Kirk:''' Exactly! What does that mean?\
188'''Chief Grizzly:''' That it all points to Granny.
189[[/folder]]
190
191[[folder:Granny's Tale]]
192* The simple fact that the sweet, old Granny Puckett regularly competes in extreme sports is worth a few laughs.
193* When meeting her team for the skiing competition, Granny gives them some snickerdoodles.
194--> '''2-Tone:''' Yo!\
195'''P-Biggie:''' Tight! Give it up! Give it up!\
196'''2-Tone:''' Snickadeedoo!\
197''(Granny, Zorra, and P-Biggie all stare at 2-Tone)''
198[[/folder]]
199
200[[folder:Final Act]]
201* Two of the pig cops and Raccoon Jerry playing cards, which includes one of the pigs saying that a full house beats a flush and he knows this because "I'm a pig. I know about houses. I built mine out of straw; I'm not an idiot." Even funnier: [[ThrowItIn the conversation was just a bunch of ad-libs that got rearranged into an actual conversation, including the aforementioned "I'm not an idiot." line]].
202* After Wolf gives [[GenkiGirl Twitchy]] coffee: "[[MyGodWhatHaveIDone What have I done?]]"
203* "And Keith... Darn it, change your name! Please! That's not scary and I'm embarrassed to say it. Boris, try that. Keith, you know. Oh! Watch out for ''Keith''!"
204** That's funny in two ways: one, Andy Dick was improvising that line as he thought Keith was a bad name for a mook, and the irony is that the alternate name "Boris" is Slavic for what is in English the same thing that "Keith" is Scots-Gaelic for.
205* Just Boingo's VillainSong, "Top of the Woods", along with Wolf's commentary on it.
206-->'''The Wolf:''' I know. The song was catchy, but the choreography was terrible.
207** In all fairness, it was. The evil ski team have completely deadpan expressions the entire time, even through the multiple uses of jazz hands.
208* When the police are stopped by Twitchy and can't understand d him due to him being hyped up on coffee, eventually resorting to have him speak into a tape deck that they can play at quarter speed:
209-->'''Twitchy:''' ''(extremely fast)'' Thecriminalyouarelookingforcannotbefoundatthebottomofthemountainheresidesatthetopinacavefortresswheremycompanionsaretryingtodetainhim!\
210'''Bill Stork:''' What is it, boy? Is there trouble at the old mill? Is the barn on fire? The- the well! ''Timmy's stuck in the well!''\
211'''Chief Grizzly:''' Wait! He seems to be speaking... ''words'' of some kind.\
212'''Twitchy:''' ''({{Facepalm}}s in frustration)''
213** When played at quarter speed, Twitchy sounds ''exactly'' like an automated phone message.
214* Boingo's last words before he and his mooks are taken to jail:
215--> '''Boingo:''' [[RapidFireNo No no no no no]], not prison!\
216''' Twitchy:''' Say parchessi! ''[takes a picture of Boingo]''\
217'''Boingo:''' NOT PRISON! NOT FOR A CUTE LITTLE BUNNY RABBIT!
218[[/folder]]
219
220[[folder:Ending]]
221* The NonSequitur cut at the end.
222-->'''The Wolf:''' So, how about that new delivery system?\
223'''Red Puckett:''' Well, it beats riding a bike, that's for sure.\
224''[cut to Japeth on a mine cart]''\
225'''Japeth:''' ''[singing]'' Oh, I got horns to hold the muffins, and I got horns to hold the pies.
