comment
Little Quacker is a 1950 Tom and Jerry cartoon directed by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. It is notable for being the debut of Quacker the duckling, who would later go on to be a recurring character in the franchise.A mother duck living in the countryside goes out to swim in a pond, leaving behind her single egg in the nest. Tom, who is in the mood for breakfast, snatches the egg and takes it into the kitchen to cook it, but instead of white and yolk, the egg reveals a living and breathing duckling named Quacker. Initially irritated, Tom decides to go with roast duck instead and tries to kill the duckling, who escapes and befriends Jerry. Soon, Quacker and Jerry try to escape Tom and search for the former's mother.

Papa Wolf: Henry, Quacker's father and the husband of Quacker's mother, is just as protective of his son as his wife is, and immediately proceeds to assault Tom with the lawnmower to teach him a lesson for trying to kill the little duckling.

Smashed Eggs Hatching: Expecting white and yolk, Tom cracks the egg into the pan, but instead gets a fully born Quacker. He doesn't realize it until he starts sprinkling salt and pepper on the duckling.

Off with His Head!: Subverted. When Jerry walks out of his mouse hole to check for Tom, the cat swings his cleaver down on him, seemingly decapitating him. A panicked Quacker then pulls him out, and it's revealed that the cleaver only caught Jerry by his whiskers.

Intelligible Unintelligible: Quacker's Donald Duck-esque voice is barely comprehensible, yet Jerry and his mother are able to understand him just fine. Henry is also able to comprehend his wife's mostly garbled rant at Tom.

Hammered into the Ground: Tom tries to decapitate Jerry, who is hiding in a telephone pole, with his cleaver repeatedly. Quacker comes to the mouse's rescue by chopping the pole with an ax, narrowly missing Tom every time. Tom then eventually realizes that the pole is about to fall on him and tries to flee, but said pole lands on his head and drives him into the ground like a nail.
