* ContrivedCoincidence: This is how Mr. Magoo manages to get on a flight despite not having a ticket. He boards the plane thinking it's a movieplex and tells the stewardess "orchestra," meaning the orchestra section of a theater...and just so happens to be standing among members of an ''actual'' orchestra. The stewardess naturally thinks he's declaring that he's part of the group and waves him aboard.

It stars, you guessed it, WesternAnimation/MrMagoo. In this cartoon, Magoo, voiced as usual by Jim Backus, goes out to see a movie, specifically a UsefulNotes/ThreeDMovie. Magoo, being basically blind, walks right past the movie theater and instead winds up at the airport. He gets a "ticket" from a guess-your-weight machine and blunders his way onto a plane, still thinking that he's in a movie theater. A RealLife drama then plays out as Magoo finds himself sitting next to a bank robber.
