"Tree for Two" is a 1952 Looney Tunes short directed by Friz Freleng. Spike is a big tough bulldog, and Chester is his worshipful terrier sidekick. One day the two dogs, looking for something to do, decide to beat up a cat. They encounter Sylvester, here without Tweety, who runs and hides in an old junkyard. Spike goes into the junkyard to beat up Sylvester, but what he doesn't know is that a black panther that recently escaped from a zoo is also hiding there. Spike keeps getting beaten up by the panther, to the consternation of Chester, who finds Sylvester instead and beats him up. At the end, Spike, convinced that Chester is tougher than he is, is now Chester's worshipful sidekick. | |

Tempting Fate | |
| Tree for Two / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: When Spike sees Sylvester's pathetic attempt at clawing him, he challenges him to scratch him. Unfortunately, the panther is hiding nearby, and is all too happy to oblige. | |

One Free Hit: Seeing the cowering Sylvester timidly clawing at him, Spike dares Sylvester to scratch him. That's when the panther emerges from its hiding place and slices Spike to ribbons with one swipe. | |

Pint-Sized Powerhouse | |

Pint-Sized Powerhouse: Sylvester isn't as scary as the panther, but he's still bigger than little Chester, who throws Sylvester around with ease. | |

Metronomic Man Mashing: Chester gives Sylvester a round of metronomic feline mashing (pretty impressive given Sylvester's bigger than the dog) before throwing him into the trash. | |

Bowdlerization | |
| Tree for Two / int_a49914aa | comment |
Bowdlerization: The version shown on ABC's The Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show from 1994 to 2000 (prior to that, the short was uncut) was edited to remove two scenes of violence: Spike kicking the semi-conscious Sylvester to his feet. Chester slamming Sylvester into the ground twice and hurling him over the fence (this was edited by cutting to a shot of Spike peeking from behind the "Loans" building and having the audio play normally). | |

Oh, Crap!: Sylvester is walking along singing "Charleston" when he turns the corner and sees Spike. He immediately turns around and throws a spastic fit in the tune of "Charleston". | |

Nothing Is Scarier | |
| Tree for Two / int_cdfe12c3 | comment |
Nothing Is Scarier: For much of the short, the panther is never clearly seen, being either in shadow or showing just the tail. We finally get a good look at it when it slices Spike into pieces (as seen above), and it lives up the hype. | |

Aside Comment: Chester tells the camera "Spike is my hero, because he's so big and strong", Spike says the same thing at the end, and Spike tells the camera "the pussycat's gonna scratch me" when Sylvester is pathetically threatening with his claws. | |
