* Huey, Dewey and Louie from ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales1987'' briefly [[DemotedToExtra appear]] in the show, most to sing their "Wonderful Ways to Say No" song. So, why didn't Scrooge show up to talk about how much a waste of money (hard) drugs can be? Seriously, hardcore coke, heroine addicts spend all their money on drugs turning to petty crime or prostitution to get more. One guesses that "old cheap Scottish duck lecturing about money" wasn't the angle they were going for, but "you'll be richer if you don't do drugs" could be a persuasive argument (at least more than the singing).

** The reason why the toons were being such dicks to Mikey might be a parallel to drugs. At first, they seem to be helpful and good, but later down the line, they screw you over big time. It makes more sense if you accept the theory that the toons are hallucinations from the drugs.
*** FridgeHorror: The above brilliance is a double edged sword. At some extent, our classic childhood heroes ''know about drugs''. Doubly so for Alvin and the Chipmunks if you know even the slightest thing about celebrity scandals.

* Pooh staying behind makes sense when you consider he was the only toon present that's actually a toy, I.E. something Corey would need right now.
* Likely unintentional, but despite the ValuesDissonance, the toons ''are'' right, Michael can't buy weed since he's a minor.
