6	''Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit'' has positively ''hilarious'' scenes, due to half of the cast [[RogerRabbitEffect being cartoon characters]].
7	----
8	* Pretty much the entire opening cartoon that starts the film, which is a master class in animated Rube Goldberg slapstick. The scene suddenly ends when Roger gets yelled at for going off-script by producing CirclingBirdies instead of stars after getting hit by a refrigerator. Roger then tries to convince the director that he ''can'' see stars, but he still can't get it right after repeatedly bashing himself over the head:
9	-->"I can give you stars! Look!" thunk ''(shapes)'' "LOOK!" thunk ''(bells)'' '''LOOOOOOOOOK!!!!'''" thunkthunkthunk ''(cuckoo clock, butterflies, alarm clock)''
10	** Also, a literal [[BrickJoke brick joke]] after Roger gets crushed by a literal ton of bricks:
11	--->'''Roger:''' Look! Stars! [[NonSequiturThud Ready when you are, Raoul.]]
12	* This line, coming from an otherwise-innocent Baby Herman who, a few seconds ago, was acting like a typical baby in the cartoon being filmed:
13	-->'''Baby Herman''': ''(deep, gravelly voice)'' ''WHAT THE HELL WAS WRONG WITH '''THAT''' TAKE?!''
14	* This moment after the ProsceniumReveal at the beginning.
15	-->'''Raoul:''' My stomach can't take this. This set is a mess. Clean this set up! Get [Roger] out of there! Or seal him up in it! Lose the lights! Say lunch!\
16	'''Cameraman:''' ''LUUUUUNCH!!!!''\
17	'''Raoul:''' That's lunch! We're on a half!
18	* When Eddie is leaving Maroon Cartoon studios, the hippo from ''WesternAnimation/{{Fantasia}}'' is sitting down on one end of a bench. The bench immediately breaks under her weight, sending the (live human) guy on the other end flying into the air. Also sort-of doubles as NightmareFuel when thought about afterward.
19	** The other ''Fantasia'' reference, when the jazz score abruptly cuts to "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" being played on a saxophone, showing a guy serenading a bunch of animated broomsticks cleaning the street with ''real-life'' brooms.
20	* [[{{Bathos}} Dolores' stone-faced, tearful read of "A toon killed his brother. Dropped a piano on his head," and the rest of the bar bowing their heads respectfully.]]
21	* The Ink and Paint Club scene! "Nice monkey suit,"[[note]]"Wiseass."[[/note]] "[[LiteralMinded Scotch on the rocks]]. AND I MEAN ''ICE''!"
22	** Then when Eddie gets his drink, it has ice and a single rock in it. They clearly just couldn't help themselves.
23	* The entire WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck vs. WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=prx4-erFlPc piano]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSIw0nD5GT0 duel]]. Animation's [[HairTriggerTemper shortest temper]] versus its biggest SmallNameBigEgo.
24	-->'''Daffy''': [[HypocriticalHumor Thith ith the latht time I work with thomeone with a thpeech impediment!]]\
25	'''Donald''': OH YEAH?!? ''(throws Daffy into his piano)''\
26	'''Daffy''': ''(beak sticking out)'' ''[[ThisMeansWar Thith... meanth... war.]]''
27	** At the very end, as the white piano falls over, Donald stands on it and salutes like a captain going down with his ship.
28	** Acme implies that these two have played 'Hungarian Rhapsody #2' at the Ink & Paint Club ''many'' times, and ''never'' been able to cooperate long enough to finish the piece.
29	--->"Those ducks are funny! They - they never get to finish the act!"
30	*** A DeletedScene reveals that this was actually AllPartOfTheShow. As Eddie sneaks in backstage, we see two piano movers coming in with a replacement piano. One of them laments that "it makes me sick to think of these beautiful pianos gettin' chopped into match sticks every night by those screwy ducks." Then when Eddie hides inside it, Donald and Daffy test out the new piano and interact quite amiably with each other as they try to figure out why it's out of tune.
31	** Zemeckis was able to sneak some of the era's casual racism past the censors in the scene. Daffy calls Donald (the ''white'' duck) a "quacker", and Donald's lisp is bad enough you can easily interpret [[https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/quacking-wise/ "doggone stubborn little..."]] as something else entirely.
32	* After Marvin Acme sprays (disappearing) ink onto Eddie's shirt with a fountain pen and starts giggling about it, Eddie responds with:
33	-->'''Eddie''': You think that's funny?\
34	'''Acme''': Oh, it's a panic!\
35	'''Eddie''': ''(seizes Acme's tie)'' You won't think it's funny when I ''stick that pen up your nose!''
36	* The fact that the very first thing we see of Jessica Rabbit is her big bosom pushing out from behind a curtain, especially since Eddie is under the impression that she's a rabbit when he does. The look on his face when he sees [[HeadTurningBeauty she's a (human) bombshell is incredulous]].
37	** Followed by this exchange:
38	--->'''Eddie:''' ''(staring in surprise, mouth gaping open)'' ''She's'' married to Roger?!\
39	'''Betty Boop:''' ''(Sighing happily.)'' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Yeahhh. What a lucky girl!]] ''(She then gently shuts Eddie's mouth for him.)''
40	** That small moment during Jessica's number when she's on Eddie's lap and her face is '''centimeters''' away from his, Eddie, completely hypnotized by Jessica's beauty, ''actually tries to kiss her'' before she quickly puts his fedora on his face. Jessica's expression implies this is a fairly common reaction for her audience.
41	** Jessica is [[HeadTurningBeauty a voluptuous toon beauty]] to where even ''humans'' lust for her. During her song number, she gently pushes one visibly enamored human man back into his seat. At the Acme Factory, right after she angrily slaps Eddie, the human cops all stop what they're doing and [[DistractedByTheSexy hypnotically gawk at her]] as she's leaving the warehouse.
42	*** As Eddie converses with WesternAnimation/BettyBoop, a crowd of human male patrons all rush to get a seat by the runway Jessica will perform on. Of course, once you see her, you understand why.
43	* Eddie mocking Bongo the Ink and Paint Club bouncer:
44	-->'''Bongo''': ''(taps shoulder while Eddie is eavesdropping at Jessica's door)'' Whaddya think you're doin', chump?\
45	'''Eddie''': Who you callin' a chump, '''chimp?'''\
46	(JumpCut to Eddie getting thrown into a pile of trash)\
47	'''Eddie''' ''(as he's thrown out)'': AAAAAAAAAH !! ''(he lands into the garbage)''\
48	'''Bongo''': And don't lemme catch your peepin' face around here again!! GOT IT?!\
49	'''Eddie''': ''(scratches right armpit with right hand)'' Ooga-booga!
50	* Roger [[MisspellingOutLoud can't spell.]]
51	-->'''Roger:''' We're gonna be happy again! Got that?! Happy! Capital H-A-P-P-I! ''(ImpactSilhouette)''
52	** Some of the foreign translations of the film manage to keep this joke relatively intact; in the Italian dub, Roger misspells "Felice" F-E-L-E-S-E.
53	** Alternatively, he does know how to spell, it's just that deliberately misspelling is funnier.
54	* The "Patty-Cake Pictures". We are, at first, meant to assume that "pattycake" is an UnusualEuphemism. Instead, it's ''[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin actual]]'' [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin patty-cake pictures]].
55	** Even funnier is how Roger rapidly flips through the photos like it was a tiny flip-book animation of Acme and Jessica playing patty-cake.
56	** When Eddie is first taking the photos, he's shocked and astonished at the sight he's seeing. At first, you might think it's because he can't believe a human is actually having intercourse with a toon (given the sounds Jessica was making), but then you see it's because Acme ''wasn't'' having sex and was just literally playing patty-cake with her. Eddie probably thought "he gets with a smoke show like her on the regular and ''that's'' what he does?". Part of what makes it hilarious was Jessica's moans; ''she was actually getting off from it''.
57	--->'''Jessica:''' Mr. Valiant? ''(Angrily slaps Eddie in the face)'' I HOPE YOU'RE PROUD OF YOURSELF! AND THOSE PICTURES YOU TOOK!
58	* Eddie and Baby Herman:
59	-->'''Eddie''': A ladies' man, huh?\
60	'''Herman''': The problem is I got a 50-year-old lust and a 3-year-old dinky.\
61	'''Eddie''': Yeah, must be tough.
62	* Baby Herman actually [[OcularGushers crying like a baby]] (albeit with his raspy voice) after Eddie causes him to drop his cigar. Eddie smiles as he turns to go into the office.
63	-->'''Baby Herman:''' ''My stogie!!''
64	* The [[https://images.propstore.com/698784.jpg newspaper]] that prints the picture of Jessica and Mr. Acme playing pattycake on their front page also found, God knows where, the only existing photograph of Roger ''looking sinister''.
65	** The paper also reads that Acme didn't leave his will to the toons as he promised, but the will [[https://content.propstore.com/auction/la2017/listings/71830/img02.jpg is clearly visible in his pocket]]. Quite the glaring oversight.
66	* Eddie wonders how Roger found out about his office.
67	-->'''Eddie:''' Anybody know you're here?\
68	'''Roger:''' No one! Not a soul! Except...\
69	'''Eddie:''' Who?\
70	'''Roger:''' Well, you see... I didn't know where your office was, so I asked the newsboy, he didn't know! So I asked the fireman, the greengrocer, the butcher, the baker, they didn't know! But the liquor store guy, ''he'' knew!\
71	'''Eddie:''' In other words, ''the whole damn town'' knows you're here!
72	** Because ''of course'' the liquor store guy would know where [[TheAlcoholic Eddie's]] office is.
73	** What's more is that the last two people in Roger's list before the liquor store guy are one person short for Roger to make it a [[GeniusBonus reference to]] a NurseryRhyme[[note]]a candlestick maker[[/note]].
74	* "Wait a minute, wait a minute. You're telling me that in a fit of jealousy, you ''wrote your wife a love letter?''"
75	-->'''Roger:''' (reading letter) "Dear Jessica: How do I love thee? Let me count the ways: One one-thousand, two one-thousand, three one-thousand, four one-thousand, five..."
76	* Roger enters Eddie's office, who of course, wants nothing to do with him. Eddie's trying very hard to pay no notice but then:
77	-->''(Roger was about to sit on Teddy's vacant chair.)''\
78	'''Eddie:''' ''GET OUTTA THAT CHAIR!!!''\
79	''(Roger freezes, terrified and places his hand on his heart.)''\
80	'''Eddie:''' It's my brother's chair.\
81	'''Roger:''' ''(looking at a picture of the brothers)'' Yeah, where ''is'' your brother anyway? He looks like a sensitive and ''(side-eyes Eddie)'''''sober''' fellow.\
82	'''Eddie:''' That's it, I'm calling the cops. ''(grabs a phone and starts dialing)''\
83	'''Roger:''' Go ahead! Call the cops! ''(heads towards a door)'' I came here for help and what do you do? You turn me in! [[DontYouDarePityMe No, no, don't feel guilty about me!]] ''(opens the door)'' So long, and thanks for '''nothin'!''' ''(slams the door, files fall to the floor)''\
84	'''Eddie:''' That's the ''closet!'' Stupe!
85	** Then when he opens the closet, a [[ComicStrip/DickTracy square-jawed]] Roger cuffs him!
86	--->'''Roger''': Eddie Valiant, you're UNDER arrest! Bl-bl-bl-bl--!
87	*** When Roger grabs Eddie's hand to cuff him, you can see Eddie exasperated. Clearly not in the mood for more of Roger's jokes.
88	** The start of the scene is also hilarious. Eddie gets into bed to have a nap and turns onto his side [[BedmateReveal only to find himself face-to-face with and inches away from Roger]]. Cue them both screaming and jumping away from each other.
89	* Roger hides in Teddy's desk, while he and Eddie are handcuffed together.
90	-->'''Roger:''' Hide me, Eddie! Pl-pl-pl-pl-please! ''[Jumps into the bottom side drawer. Then he sticks his head out of the top drawer.]'' Remember, you never saw me.\
91	'''Eddie:''' ''GET OUTTA THERE!!''
92	* The Weasels shoot their way into Eddie's office and find him at his sink.
93	--->'''Eddie:''' Hello boys. I didn't hear you come in.
94	** Also, Eddie's cover for Roger:
95	--->'''Smartass:''' ''(sniffs the sink)'' What's in there?\
96	'''Eddie:''' ''(holds up a dirty sock'') My lingerie.\
97	''(Smartass hastily covers his nose in disgust and backs off.)''
98	* "Dolores. Dolores! ''[[SayMyName DOLOOOOREEEESSS!!!!]]''"
99	** Well it couldn't be helped that the Red Car was drowning out his voice in the first place.
100	* Eddie, with Roger handcuffed to him, has to smuggle Roger to the diner by keeping him stuffed down his trench coat, but Roger can't breathe. So when the rabbit pushes his head out the collar for some air, Eddie manages to stuff him back down before anyone can see him, making a gigantic bulge in his crotch. Except for Dolores:
101	-->'''Dolores:''' So tell me, Eddie. Is that a rabbit in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?\
102	'''Eddie:''' Cut the comedy, Dolores, I've had a very hard day.
103	* Eddie keeps hitting his head on the ceiling lamp in the bar's secret room.
104	-->'''Roger:''' Jeepers, Eddie, that almost killed me!\
105	'''Eddie:''' ''[BONK]'' Ow!
106	** In the same scene, Roger trying out the spy-hole and knocking over a bottle with his eyes.
107	-->'''Eddie:''' ''[grabs Roger by the ears]'' Crazy toons! ''[BONK]'' Oof!\
108	'''Roger:''' Watch your head!\
109	'''Dolores:''' I thought you said you'd never take another toon case again, Eddie. What'd you have, a change of heart?\
110	'''Eddie:''' Nothing's changed! Somebody's made a patsy out of me and I'm gonna find out ''[BONK]'' why!
111	* The scene where Eddie, [[ChainedHeat handcuffed to Roger,]] takes a hacksaw to the handcuffs, and Roger slips out of the handcuffs to hold the table steady with both hands.
112	-->'''Eddie:''' Do you mean to tell me you could've taken your hand out of that cuff at any time?!\
113	'''Roger:''' No! Not ''any'' time, [[RuleOfFunny only when it was funny.]]
114	** Note that Roger is explaining this in total SincerityMode.
115	** The smug look on Roger's face when Eddie says "I got no keys for these cuffs!" While we find out Roger could get out when he feels like it, it looks as though Roger doesn't care if he'll be stuck with him forever.
116	* Roger doesn't quite know what Eddie and Dolores are talking about when she asks Eddie to check the probate for information on Marvin Acme's will:
117	-->'''Roger:''' Yeah, check the probate! Why, my uncle [[WesternAnimation/{{Bambi}} Thumper]] had a problem with ''his'' probate, so he had to take these big pills and drink lots of water...\
118	'''Eddie:''' Not "prostate", you idiot! "Probate"!
119	* This exchange:
120	-->'''Roger''': {{Let me get this straight}}. You think that my boss, R.K. Maroon, dropped a safe on Marvin Acme's head, so that he could get his hands on Toontown?!\
121	'''Eddie''' (as he finally gets out of the cuffs): Yep, that's my hunch. (to Dolores) Uh, can he stay here for a couple of days?\
122	'''Dolores''': He's not going to do anything crazy, is he? ''(pan to Roger, [[InOneEarOutTheOther who's cleaning his ears with a metal file]], giggling)''
123	* And when it comes to real actors:
124	--> '''Dolores''': (upon finding Eddie and Jessica together) Do you wanna tell me [[NotWhatItLooksLike what she was doing with her ARMS around you]]?!\
125	'''Eddie''': Probably looking for a good place to stick a knife!\
126	'''Dolores''': ''(scoffs)'' C'mon, Eddie, I caught you [[LiteralMetaphor with your pants down!]]
127	** Earlier, when he's picking up his pants, Eddie bumps his head on Jessica's breasts with a hilariously chagrined "Sorry." Even funnier in that Bob Hoskins ad-libbed that!
128	*** The "boingy"/timpani drum sound effect they make when Eddie's head collides with them or when she pressed them against his chest.
129	** And before that is Dolores' ''perfect'' one-liner when she first walks in on the situation:
130	---> '''Dolores:''' [[DeadpanSnarker Dabbling in watercolors, Eddie?]]
131	** This line:
132	--->'''Jessica''': You don't know how hard it is being [[SoBeautifulItsACurse a woman looking the way I do]].\
133	'''Eddie''': Yeah, well, you don't know [[DoubleEntendre how hard]] [[SomethingElseAlsoRises it is]] being a man...(says rapidly) ''looking at a woman looking the way you do''.
134	** This line, after Dolores storms out of Eddie's office in anger:
135	--->'''Eddie:''' Come on, Dolores, you don't really believe that painted hussy can turn my head? She's just trying to get her hands on the rabbit!\
136	'''Dolores:''' [[DoubleEntendre That's not all she's trying to get her hands on!]]\
137	''[In the background, Jessica is inside her car, smirking at Dolores' remark.]''
138	* The [[RepetitiveAudioGlitch record repeats itself]], causing Roger to keep smashing plates on his head. When Eddie stops it, Roger freezes and has a ridiculous expression on his face.
139	-->'''Roger:''' ''Look there is no pain- ''smash'' no pain- ''smash'' no pain- ''smash'' no pain- ''smash'' no pain- ''smash'' no pain-'' smash [Eddie stops record] ''no''- [Roger freezes]
140	** Dolores begs Eddie to stop Roger for the sake of her plates. An annoyed and furious Eddie instantly intervenes and pulls Roger off the counter, causing at least half of the plates to instantly crash on the ground. Her expression is just speechless horror.
141	*** The behind-the-scenes documentaries show more, when the other plates fell Eddie sighs and just tossed the plate he had in his hand.
142	** The part where Roger sings "''My buddy's Eddie V., a sourpuss, you see''", the camera pans to a stone-faced Eddie just standing there. Dolores smiles and nudges him in the ribs.
143	* When Judge Doom enters the bar in search of Roger, it sounds like Angelo (the drunk who made fun of Eddie earlier in the film) is about to give away his position, but:
144	-->'''Angelo''': Hey... I seen a rabbit.\
145	'''Judge Doom''': Where?\
146	'''Angelo''': He's right here in the bar. (He puts a hand around an invisible presence in the stool next to him) Say hello... Theatre/{{Harvey}}!\
147	''(Everyone but the Judge erupts into laughter)''
148	* Judge Doom taps out "Shave And a Haircut" on the wall, knowing that Roger won't be able to stop himself from finishing the song. Sure enough, Roger comes ''bursting through the wall''.
149	--> '''Roger''': ''TWOOOO BIIIITS!''
150	* [[DuckSeasonRabbitSeason Eddie convincing Roger to take a drink]] to save him from getting dipped. Just before Roger erupts, Eddie ducks down behind the bar, and a moment later reaches up and grabs the neckline of Dolores' dress to pull her down as well.
151	--> '''Roger''': LISTEN, WHEN I SAY I DO, THAT MEANS I DO!! drains the drink
152	* When [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nyu46d6RaM Benny instructs Eddie to pull a lever]] that'll enable the cab to dodge the oncoming Toon Patrol, Eddie and Roger can't find it, prompting a sign reading "[[ExpoLabel THIS LEVER, STUPID]]" to pop out and point to it.
153	** What makes it even funnier is that we get a view of Benny's dashboard during that moment, and there is literally just ''one'' lever. Roger and Eddie are obviously too panicked to think straight.
154	* "Hey Roger, what do you call the middle of a song?" "Gee I dunno, ''[about to crash into]'' [[OhCrap A BRIDGE!!!]]"
155	* Eddie and Roger are hiding out at a movie theater in the mezzanine... and Roger can't help but laugh out loud at the WesternAnimation/{{Goofy}} cartoon playing. Eddie has to remind him that they're supposed to be ''hiding''.
156	* The hilariously over-the-top face Roger makes to try to make Eddie laugh just a little. That he barely reacts to it says volumes about how he feels about Roger and toons in general.
157	** When Roger is saying "Is there nothing that can permeate your impervious puss?" beforehand, Eddie is wiping off the spittle from Roger popping his Ps.
158	* Eddie sneaks up on Maroon and startles him.
159	-->'''Eddie:''' [[WesternAnimation/BugsBunny What's up, Doc?]]\
160	'''Maroon:''' ''Valiant, what are you tryin' to do, gimme a heart attack?!''\
161	'''Eddie:''' You need a heart before you can have an attack.
162	** This dialogue:
163	--->'''Maroon:''' ''[pulls his gun out]'' Let me see that will.\
164	'''Eddie:''' ''[about to have a drink]'' I told you, I got it.\
165	'''Maroon:''' I wanna see it ''NOW''! ''[smacks the drink from his hand, Eddie quietly grabs the seltzer as Maroon reads]'' "How do I love thee, let me count the ways"? Is this supposed to be a joke!? ''[crumbles the paper and puts it in Eddie's pants]''\
166	'''Eddie:''' No! ''This'' is. ''[sprays water at his face]''
167	** [[RewatchBonus That WAS the will!]]
168	* The scene with the toon bullets:
169	--> '''Bullet 1''': Eddie Valiant! You're a sight for sore eyes!\
170	'''Bullet 2''': I ain't seen you for nigh onto five years!\
171	'''Bullet 1''': Where ya been?\
172	'''Eddie''': ...Drunk. Feelin' frisky tonight fellas?\
173	'''Bullets''': YEAH!\
174	'''Eddie''': Then let's go.
175	* {{Toontown}} could have a page all its own with the numerous {{Easter Egg}}s and gags to boot.
176	** The drive through the tunnel starts out ominously. Tense music plays as a nervous Eddie drives down the darkness towards a red glow at the end. Then he arrives at a red curtain that opens with a comical guitar slide to reveal a sunny SugarBowl world where everything is singing "Smile, Darn Ya, Smile". Eddie is nearly blinded by the change in lighting.
177	** A gag that is easy to miss is [[StealthPun the pie on the road with a cow's face on it]]. What's not so easy to miss is the loud "Splath!" it makes after it goes under Eddie's car.
178	** When Eddie arrives, he's greeted by hundreds of toons singing. Then the hummingbirds from the "Zip-a-Dee-Do-Dah" sequence in ''Film/SongOfTheSouth'' appear and say "Hi, Eddie!" three times, before saying "Bye, Eddie!" as he crashes into Jessica's parked car.
179	** The marquee at the movie theater reads "We change our ''shorts'' daily"; as in ''animated short'' films.
180	** ''[[BathroomStallGraffiti "For a good time, call ALLYSON "WONDERLAND", the best is yet to be"]]''
181	** The poster for "Porky's All-Beef Sausage".
182	** A cartoon dive bar building is all drowsy and drunk annoying the adjacent buildings while the toon police station next door glares at him.
183	*** A cartoon joke shop at the end of the street wearing goofy glasses and [[AsideGlance gives the audience]] a [[Creator/MarxBrothers Groucho Marx]]-style eyebrow raise.
184	** WesternAnimation/{{Droopy}}'s cameo as the elevator operator.
185	*** The ceiling of the elevator is very thoughtfully padded with cushions, since, apparently, screeching to a halt so fast it slams the passenger into the ceiling is its normal mode of operation.
186	*** Droopy being TheComicallySerious as always. He even looks at Eddie being squashed and remains totally unfazed.
187	** '''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-wWTQ70NKE Lena Hyena]]'''. Thinking Jessica Rabbit murdered R.K. Maroon, Eddie pursues her all the way into a Toontown hotel only to find not Jessica, but [[{{Butterface}} an ugly, goofy-looking hag]] [[AbhorrentAdmirer that pursues him obsessively]].
188	--->'''Lena:''' ... '''''[[SuddenlyShouting A MA-A-A-A-A-AN!!!]]'''''
189	*** Apart from her green pumps, Lena still has the same features as Jessica (purple eye shadow, green eyes, red hair, red lips; red, backless slit dress; and violet {{high class gloves}}). They're also both toon-human women with a SpeciesSurname, but while Jessica's is due to marrying a guy with the last name Rabbit, Lena's is probably for the sake of a {{Pun}}.
190	*** Eddie's OhCrap look when Lena reveals her face is quite amusing too.
191	*** It's a brief moment, but Lena is clearly trying to adjust her boobs to make them look stacked again, but they immediately sag and droop all the way to the floor for a second.
192	*** A very small, unnoticeable FreezeFrameBonus shows a CreepyChangingPainting of a toon rabbit in Lena's room. When Eddie peeps through the keyhole, the rabbit is happy and excited when Lena imitates Jessica, but after she reveals her face, the rabbit looks away in disgust.
193	*** In the same sequence, even Lena's bed has a repulsed expression.
194	*** Eddie tries to slam the door on Lena in order to escape getting kissed by her, but her lips simply smash through the door [[{{Determinator}} before she kicks it down with a single kick]].
195	*** After the exchange between Bugs and Mickey while plummeting down the building, Eddie ends up being saved from getting splattered on the pavement by Lena, who is still waiting for her kiss.
196	--->'''Lena:''' MY MAN!!! ''(kisses Eddie on the cheek very noisily)''
197	*** Just Eddie's disgusted face when Lena plants a big kiss on his cheek.
198	*** The recoil of Lena's kiss being powerful enough to send Eddie tumbling yards away along with the "steam locomotive" noises as she barrels towards Eddie at full speed.
199	---> '''Lena:''' [[LargeHam '''COME TO LENA!!!''']]
200	*** Eddie finally gets Lena off his tail by ''peeling and tearing'' a toon road surface marking like it were duct tape, placing a torn end towards a brick wall, and having Lena follow it full speed into the wall, flattening on impact, exposing her polka dot bloomers.
201	--->'''Eddie:''' [[BondOneLiner Toons, gets 'em every time!]]
202	** Eddie falling off the toon skyscraper and grabbing his hat who was floating mid-air.
203	--->'''Eddie:''' (''realizing there's no floor under him'') AAAAAAAAH !! [[ThisIsGonnaSuck Oh no !!]] (''he falls'') AAAAAAAAH !!
204	** WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse and WesternAnimation/BugsBunny encounter Eddie while he's falling to his doom (after escaping from Lena Hyena and ducking into the men's room, only to find the ENTIRE FLOOR was gone in it!). Eddie desperately asks if they have a spare. Mickey [[NotSoAboveItAll mentions that Bugs does.]] And Bugs concedes that he ''does'' have a spare - [[SarcasticConfession but he doesn't think Eddie will want it.]] Eddie assures them he does, accepts a large bag marked 'Spare' and the two cartoon characters pull their cords and vanish upward. Eddie pulls open the bag and discovers that [[WrongParachuteGag it contains a spare tire.]] [[ShaggyDogStory And continues falling to his doom.]]
205	--->'''Eddie''': [[OhCrap OH NO!]] ''AAAAAHHHHH!''
206	--->'''Mickey''': ''(sympathetically)'' Aw, poor fella.\
207	'''Bugs''': [[{{Troll}} Yeah. Ain't I a stinker?]]
208	*** The two are also parachuting. Just coincidentally.
209	*** Eddie's fall is pretty funny, too. When he realizes that he's not standing on anything, he screams as [[GravityIsAHarshMistress gravity kicks in]] and falls. And then goes back up for his hat, which was left spinning in the air, and resumes falling.
210	* Even Jessica Rabbit who isn't as loony as other toons expresses humor in her own way, like doing {{hammerspace}} gags such as hiding ''a bear trap'' into her bosom and fitting a frying pan into her small purse.
211	** The exact moment Jessica reveals that, for all her looks and sophisticated femme fatale wiles, [[NotSoAboveItAll she, deep down, has the personality of a toon]]:
212	--->'''Jessica:''' Oh no. Where's Roger?!\
213	'''Eddie:''' Roger? He chickened out on me back at the studio.\
214	'''Jessica:''' No he didn't. I hit him in the head with a frying pan and put him in the trunk. So he wouldn't get hurt.\
215	'''Eddie:''' [[DeadpanSnarker Makes perfect sense]].
216	** Her reaction to Doom revealing he's synthesized a massive vat of Dip that he plans to use to destroy Toontown is hysterically over-the-top:
217	--->'''Doom:''' Can you guess what this is? ''[opens valve to show Dip pouring]''\
218	'''Jessica:''' [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Oh. My. God.]] [[LargeHam IT'S DIIIIIIIIIP!]]
219	* Benny runs over a puddle of Dip during a car chase, damaging his tires and rendering him unable to drive... on his own wheels at least. So, instead, he climbs into the driver's seat of a ''different,'' real-world car and [[MetaMecha drives his way to Eddie]].
220	* One of the Weasels tries to frisk Jessica Rabbit, but all he gets from sticking his hand down [[VictoriasSecretCompartment her cleavage]] is his hand stuck in a bear trap. Eddie can't help but [[BoobBasedGag quip]], [[VisualPun "Nice booby-trap."]]
221	* The semi-RunningGag of Roger confirming Benny's identity, specifically, Benny's reactions to Roger's [[AskAStupidQuestion stupid questions]].
222	-->'''Roger''': Benny, is that you?\
223	'''Benny''': No! It's UsefulNotes/EleanorRoosevelt!\
224	'''Roger''': Benny, is that you?\
225	'''Benny''': No! It's Creator/ShirleyTemple!
226	* Jessica's declaration of love to Roger: "I want you to know I love you. I love you more than ''any woman's ever loved a rabbit''." [[ARareSentence We're not gonna argue that]]. Doubles as a hilarious ParentalBonus, given the ahem other meaning of '''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabbit_vibrator rabbit]]'''
227	* One of the great examples is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8iyYjvNgmo the singing scene]]:
228	** Eddie's second verse has him struggling with rhyming.
229	---> '''Eddie''': ''This singin' ain't my line''\
230	''It's tough to make a rhyme''\
231	''If I get stuck... I'm outta luck... uh...''\
232	'''Jessica''': ''I'M RUNNING OUT OF TIME!''\
233	'''Eddie''': Thanks!
234	** Followed by this:
235	---> '''Eddie''': ''I'm through with takin' falls''\
236	''and bouncin' off the walls!''\
237	''Without that gun, I'd have some fun!''\
238	''I'd kick you in the -'' ''[[CurseCutShort (vase hits him on the head)]]''\
239	'''Roger''': [[SubvertedRhymeEveryOccasion Nose]]!\
240	'''Smart Ass''': "Nose?" That don't rhyme with walls!\
241	'''Eddie''': No, but ''this'' does! (''[[GroinAttack kicks Smart Ass in the crotch]] so hard he goes flying into the dip'')
242	* Judge Doom's MotiveRant, while awesome, is hilarious in part because Eddie [[ItWillNeverCatchOn doesn't think very highly of the idea]] ("That lame-brained freeway idea could've only been cooked up by a toon!").
243	** Also, when the film played in Southern California itself, the line from Doom about "traffic jams becoming a thing of the past" got a lot of laughs from the audience. If anything, Doom was ''underestimating'' the levels of traffic you see on the 405.
244	* Confronted with a sword-wielding Judge Doom, Eddie seizes a nearby box labeled "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6u8wBfDtZkE ACME Singing Sword]]" and whips out [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin a cartoon singing sword]] (singing Music/FrankSinatra's "Witchcraft" no less). Doom is amused and continues to advance with his ''actual'' sword.
245	** Even better when, after staring in horror for about half a minute, Eddie angrily throws it away mid-lyric.
246	* Drained of its dip, Doom's doomsday machine breaks through the brick wall into Toontown [[AntiClimax and instantly gets rammed by a bullet train]].
247	** And seconds later a hand cart going the other direction on the same track.
248	** Watch it frame-by-frame. There's a different murder occurring in the windows of each car.
249	* Doom's high pitched scream as he's about to be hit by his own Dip. This is actually one of the few times (if not the only one) where he shows a bit of comedy.
250	!!Meta
251	* [[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants When you’re trying to deliver a love letter to your wonderful wife]] [[https://paddypadcake.tumblr.com/post/149622793344/when-youre-trying-to-deliver-a-love-letter-to only to find out you’ve been framed for murder.]].
252	* One from behind the scenes: As seen in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_VnHAy1Vdc this video]], the scene in which Eddie was kissed by Lena was accomplished by having a crew member pinch Bob Hoskins' cheek, with an [[TheComicallySerious incredibly serious]] look on his face as he does so.
