Couch Gag - Grape Ape.

Uh Oh! It's a Burglar!

  • Accidental Theft: Wally accidentally shoplifted a bowtie. He dressed like a burglar to sneak it back in the store at night.
  • Bedsheet Ghost: A sheet being put on Wally somehow makes everyone think he's a ghost.
  • The Cameo: Weirdly Gruesome from The Flintstones appears in the movie.
  • Continuity Nod: Many of the characters wear the same outfits they wore in "Spell Book".
  • Description Cut: Jabberjaw says that Magilla must be having fun at the movies. Cut to Magilla clearly not having fun at the movies.
  • The Ditherer: Wally Gator is unsure on what bowtie to wear, which really annoys Loopy.
  • Ladies and Germs: At the movie screening, Snagglepuss addresses the audience as "Boils, ghouls, and all night dwellers in between".
  • No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Despite Wally trying to return the bowtie to the store, Touche Turtle still arrests him for breaking and entering.
  • Overly Long Gag:
    • At the start of the episode, there's a pretty elongated gag of Wally Gator trying to pick out a bowtie.
    • Snagglepuss groaning spookily.
  • Police Are Useless: When the store is being robbed, Jabberjaw calls the cops. However, since the Goofy Guards are at the horror movie screening, they don't even bother to pick up their phone.
  • "Scooby-Doo" Hoax: There wasn't really a ghost, and Wally wasn't trying to rob the store. He was only trying to return the bowtie he accidentally shoplifted.
  • Tailfin Walking: Lampshaded when Jabberjaw gets caught in the bear trap she and Loopy set up and exclaims, "Ow! My tail slash foot!"
  • Voice-Only Cameo: Fred and Barney make voice-only cameos in the horror movie Magilla is watching. Barney warns Fred not to use the cursed toilet.
  • Whole Costume Reference: Snagglepuss wears an outfit of The Phantom of the Opera.

It's a Mad, Mad, Mad Rat Race
