Born Unlucky: Foofle does things that go wrong for him. He tries to open a window to smell the fresh air, but gets broken. He tries to pull the emergency cord, but pulls it all the way to the point of going back in the train. He tries to get a drink of water, but gets water right through his clothes.

Water Is Dry: Foofle gets showered by a waterfall as part of a visual gag. Later in the short, he is back to being dry.
