Windsor Hassle contains examples of:

...And Justice for Slappy contains examples of:

  • Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: After hearing Walter's greatly exaggerated testimony, Slappy asks him if he knows that he's under oath, that perjury is against the law, and if pita bread and warm root beer gives people gas.
  • For the Evulz: The evil Slappy in Walter's testimony torments others for absolutely no reason.
  • Jaw Drop: Walter and his lawyer and grandson Stephen do this when Slappy is declared not guilty.
  • Kangaroo Court: The trial is blatantly skewed in Walter's favor, for the judge and jury are all wolves. Slappy only wins because she has a "dynamite case". As in, she has cases of dynamite under the jury, who are too afraid of being blown up to rule against her.
  • "Rashomon"-Style: Walter, Skippy, and Slappy each have their own testimonies. Walter portrays himself as a Friend to All Living Things and Slappy as a sadistic monster who torments people for no reason, Skippy portrays Walter as the sadistic monster while praising his aunt Slappy and only witnesses the explosion, and Slappy gives the normal version of the story where she gladly admits to blowing up Walter.

Closing Tower Gag: "Speeeeeeew!"- Skippy
