* Bombo, rather impressed by the wedding ring, surreptitiously asks Little how much it cost, guessing "three". Little smirks proudly and indicates ''six''. Bombo is downright awed. Also, like seemingly all cartoon characters of the time, Bombo just happens to be carrying a JewelersEyeLope.

* The ''Gabby'' shorts themselves were hilarious. In one, the title character decides to help out the fire department, though he does more damage then good [[UnwantedAssistance (and the other firemen couldn't care less about him)]]. At one point, he chops his way through a door with a bucket of water... [[ComicallyMissingThePoint to water the plants and put a log in the fireplace.]]

** After being shown the magnificent wedding cake, Bombo tries to sneak a taste, but looks to Little for permission. Little allows it.
--> '''Bombo''': Vanilla! WOO!
** On the topic of the cake, Gabby was hiding under the sheet covering the cake and had to be dragged out by one of the guards. It's a miracle the cake wasn't trashed in the struggle.

* When David sneaks onto the Lilliput castle grounds to see Glory, Gabby catches him. Since they're still at war with King Bombo, Gabby tries to fight him, but is completely outclassed - he has to be backed up by the castle guards to have a fighting chance, and keeps getting his sword knocked out of his hand, several times taking a few seconds to even notice as he keeps closing his eyes while swinging it around.
