Those Two Guys: Officers Ham and Cheats are a pair of bumbling and incompetent cops who, despite being called in to investigate Beary's disappearance, clearly of no use other than pure comic relief throughout the movie. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
| The Country Bears / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: Big Al's grass in the end. Towards the beginning of the movie, Dexter shows Beary his "birth certificate" (a tracking-collar and remote that park rangers used on him as a baby). Beary takes the collar with him when he runs away from home, but he didn't take the remote; this allows them to track down the bus after Thimble steals it. | |
