Cartoons in Wakko's Body 1

Animation by StarToons

Wakko complains of having a headache.
Yakko discovers that Wakko has a cartoon stuck in his ear.

Noah's Lark

Written by Shecky Hollander, Dr. Plotz Ruegger, and Boom-Boom Stoner
Directed by Greg Reyna

Animation by Akom Film Production

Synopsis

The Hip Hippos pester Noah on his ark, while believing it to be a cruise ship.

Trivia

• Noah's look, speech and mannerisms are a caricature of comedian Richard Lewis.
• When Noah asks what is an ark, Indiana Jones appears to explain the Ark of the Covenant, as well as giving away the ending to Raiders of the Lost Ark. The Indiana Jones films were also produced by Steven Spielberg.
• The comparison Indiana Jones makes to Noah's ark is accurate. Ark is Hebrew for "box" or "chest", not "ship".
• When Indiana Jones is being chased away by Hovito Indians, the music is an instrumental version of the theme song to Taz-Mania! ("Down in Tazmania")
• Buster and Babs Bunny (no relation) from Tiny Toon Adventures make a cameo appearance, as does the Wolverine from the same show. Pinky and the Brain also appear. The Warners also make a cameo at the end. Squit plays the role of the dove who brings back the olive tree leaf.
• The narrator is voiced by Ernie Anderson, who was best known for his time as announcer for the ABC network. He even parodies the way he announces "The Love Boat" as "the looooooooooove ark."

Trivia

• During the beginning of the short, caricatures of Macaulay Culkin, Joe Pesci, and Daniel Stern from Home Alone 2: Lost in New York can be spotted.
• In the end, Squit says the three are like The Three Musketeers, but due to the reference Pesto makes to The Mickey Mouse Club, he confuses it for "mouseketeers".
