Hammerspace: The fish actually pulls a hammer out of space—well, a mallet—to whack the cat on the head.

Ambiguous Syntax: The cat gets the fish on a pan and starts up the stove. The inattentive fish finally notices the smell and says "Who's cooking fish?" The cat shoots back with "You're cooking, fish."

Bait-and-Switch: After biting the cat on the finger, the fish feels sorry and appears to want to make it better. He takes out a doctor's bag, reaches inside and pulls out... a set of huge dentures to bite the cat even harder.

Eye Pop: The cat's eyes pop out of its head Tex Avery-style when it first sees the fish, and later when it sees the storm drain and realizes it can intercept the fish coming out.

Off-into-the-Distance Ending: The cat escapes from the attack dog that Andy has just bought. Then it comes back and joyfully babbles "I made it, I made it!" The cat hits itself in the head a bunch, then runs away as the cartoon ends.
