"Daffy Doodles" is a 1946 Looney Tunes cartoon starring Daffy Duck and Porky Pig, and directed by Robert McKimson, being his first full-length animated cartoon for a civilian audience (his first cartoon was "The Return of Mr. Hook", which was made for military audiences).In this cartoon, Daffy Duck is a "mustache fiend", terrorizing a city by painting mustaches on every advertisement and person he can find. Officer Porky Pig sets out to capture the fiend; unfortunately, his wily adversary tricks him at every turn, leaving him with egg (and a mustache) on his face. Can the determined police pig bring the diabolical duck to justice?

Stealth Pun: After Daffy chases Porky on a motorized vehicle, he crashes it into a nearby skylight. The result being Daffy being dazed in the wreckage and Porky having the vehicle's handlebars under his nose. In other words, Porky gets a handlebar mustache.

Stand-In Portrait: Porky poses as a poster to trap the "mustache fiend" by standing behind a barrel and holding a picture frame in front of him. Unfortunately, Daffy sees through the sting operation and, as mentioned under Schmuck Bait, sets a trap of his own.

Face Doodling: Daffy finds every opportunity to paint a mustache on Porky and other citizens. He even holds his brush aside a passing train to paint mustaches on all the passengers at once.

Human Mail: Daffy hides from Porky by sliding down the pneumatic mail tubes of a high-rise building. When Porky tries to fish him out, Daffy "arrests" him for trying to rob the mail.

Felony Misdemeanor
 Daffy Doodles / int_c59cfa2e
comment
Felony Misdemeanor: Drawing mustaches on posters is treated as Serious Businessnote in reality, vandalism is only a felony if the defaced property is worth a lot of money. The opening narration makes Daffy sound like a feared criminal.

Shout-Out
 Daffy Doodles / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: As Porky passes by a movie theater, there are mustaches painted on pictures of Alexis Smith, Ann Sheridan, Peter Lorre, Humphrey Bogart, Ida Lupino, and even Bugs Bunny! When Daffy pretends to arrest Porky for robbing the mail, he says "Wait'll J. Edgar Hoozit hears of this!" referring, of course to longtime FBI director J. Edgar Hoover. The members of the jury that declare Daffy not guilty are all look-alikes of comedian Jerry Colonna, famous for his handlebar mustache.

Schmuck Bait: While Porky poses as a picture, Daffy passes by and leaves a present with a "Don't Open Until Xmas" sticker on it. Since Porky won't be around at Christmas, he opens the present now. Inside the box is Daffy (somehow), who then paints a mustache on Porky's face.

Pet the Dog: As Porky chases Daffy along the eaves of a skyscraper, Porky almost loses his balance but is pulled back by Daffy. He hangs a lampshade on it by saying to the audience "Very sporting of the little black duck."
