Hong Kong Dub | |
| Eatin' on the Cuff / int_51a12a6f | comment |
Hong Kong Dub: While the piano player in the opening and ending is played by actor Leo White, Mel Blanc dubs over his dialogue, and its pretty easy to tell due to the lip sync being off. | |

| Eatin' on the Cuff / int_88cee6e2 | comment |
Abhorrent Admirer: The Black Widow Spider is in love the Moth, but the Moth has two very good reasons not to reciprocate her advances. One, he's already engaged with the Bee, and two, the Black Widow Spider is ugly as hell. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Eatin' on the Cuff / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: A caricature (without his face seen) of Eddie "Rochester" Anderson is seen early on. The Black Widow references the "Look, a man!" catchphrase of Cobina from The Bob Hope Show. She also disguises herself as Veronica Lake at one point. After she's defeated by the bee, she says "Confidentially, she stings!", a pun on a famous line "Confidentially, it stinks!" line from Frank Capra's You Can't Take It With You. | |
