-->'''Sam:''' Fifteen men on a dead man's chest, yo-ho-ho and a bottle of... Ma's old-fashioned cider! Ma's old-fashioned cider!

* {{Bowdlerise}}: The WB! channel edited this cartoon to remove the part where Bugs tells Sam that "Dead men tell no tales," and Sam almost shoots himself in the head before realizing he's been tricked. This scene was also edited when shown on Cartoon Network's Latin American channel (but left intact on other Cartoon Network channels, including ones in the United States, Australia, and United Kingdom, and on Cartoon Network's spin-off channel, Boomerang, both in the United States and overseas) and the Latin American cartoon channel Tooncast. In contrast to the WB! version, Tooncast and Cartoon Network Latin America left in the scene of Bugs telling Sam "Dead men tell no tales" and Sam realizing that Bugs is right, but cut the scene of Sam saying, "Well, doggone it, I reckon I ain't got no alternative," and pointing a gun on his head before realizing he's been tricked (making it obvious that there's something missing).

!!Tropes:

-->'''Bugs''': Eh, didn't make it?

-->'''Sam''': Why you crazy doggone idjit, whatcha trying to do, blow us to smithereens?!

* EverythingExplodesEnding: For the climax, Bugs throws a lit match down the gunpowder room. Sam quickly retrieves it, only for Bugs to throw another and send Sam scrambling after it again. He warns Bugs that if the tries it [[RuleOfThree a third time]], he won't go after it... so Bugs throws another match. Sam tries to not go after it, even distracting himself with a game of jacks, but eventually he caves and runs after it, but it's too late. The ship explodes, and Sam and Bugs land on the beach with the remains of the deck.

-->'''Bugs:''' What, sword again?! ''(Sam tries to stab Bugs, but got his sword stuck on a pole and tries to get it out)'' What a nasty disposition!

* InstantRoast: Bugs gives Sam's parrot a large firecracker, which blows all of its feathers off when it explodes.

While burying his treasure, Sea-Goin' Sam ends up digging into Bugs' hole. To keep the location of his treasure secret, Sam intends to shoot Bugs (saying "Dead rabbits tell no tales"), until Bugs tricks him into almost shoot himself ("Now, just a minute, Red. Ain't you got that wrong? You mean dead ''men'' tell no tales") resulting in Sam chasing Bugs across his entire pirate ship, with Bugs getting the best of him at every turn.

** Bugs' closing line - "I have not yet even begun to fight!" - paraphrases a famous quote attributed to John Paul Jones.

** When Sam is burying the treasure, he's singing "Dead Man's Chest", which then transitions to a conga beat and a parody of a popular 1940s jingle for "Pa's Old-Fashioned Root Beer".

* PirateParrot: Sam's parrot [[StoolPigeon keeps giving away Bugs' hiding places]], until Bugs has enough and gives the parrot a cracker ([[ExactWords firecracker]], that is). Bugs then pretends to be the parrot and tricks Sam into going inside a cannon, which Bugs then fires.
