Brain's Bogie[]
Animation by Rough Draft
Plot[]
The Brain, disguised as famous actress-singer Cher, enters a celebrity golf tournament in order to steal star golfer Chico Gonzales' putter, with which he intends to tattoo "Property of Brain" onto the Earth. But in a fit of competitive anger, The Brain breaks the putter across his knee, thus thwarting yet another plan to take over the world.
Crew[]
- Written by Reid Harrison
- Directed by Nelson Recinos
Trivia[]
- Fitting for the episode, there are several references to Cher's life and career such as her acting role in Moonstruck as well as a tattoo showing her past relationships with Sonny Bono and Gregg Allman.
- When Cher shows where she put a tattoo of Ed Koch's name, the viewers only see the mice reacting in disgust as an unzipping sound is heard. This implies that the tattoo is located in a more taboo spot.
- In the golf tournament, the celebrities attending include Jay Leno, Whoopi Goldberg, and William Shatner.
- Chico Gonzales is a parody of professional golfer Chi-Chi Rodríguez.
- After the ending chorus is heard, the iris almost closes as a golf ball rolls into the iris before it finally closes.
Say What, Earth[]
Animation by Akom Film Production
Plot[]
When The Brain invents a machine that brings the Earth to life, the planet is so grateful that it grants The Brain his every wish. World leaders are forced to pledge their allegiance to The Brain or face the consequences of devastating natural disasters. But The Brain asks too much of the Earth, and the planet turns against him. Gentle Pinky finally convinces the Earth that killing is not in its nature, and the planet asks to return to its former, unconscious self.
Crew[]
- Written by Gene Laufenberg
