"Tweet and Sour" is a Looney Tunes cartoon short featuring Sylvester and Tweety directed by Friz Freleng. The short was released March 24, 1956.Sylvester has tried one too many times to eat Tweety, and when Granny stops his latest attempt, she warns him not to do so again or she'll send him to be made into violin strings. Unfortunately, Sam the one-eyed alley cat is after Tweety as well and is uncaring Sylvester will be deemed responsible for the canary's disappearance, so Sylvester has to keep the little bird safe if he doesn't want pizzicatos played on him.

Implied Death Threat: Granny warns Sylvester that if he hurts one feather on Tweety's head, she'll sell him to the violin string factory, punctuating the threat by humming Chopin's "Funeral March" while pretending to play the violin. Tweety also reminds Sylvester of this threat shortly after Granny leaves. This plays on the myth that violin strings are made from cat gut. (They were actually made from sheep gut; modern strings are made of synthetic fabric.)

Chimney Entry: Sam tries to enter the house through the chimney, but Sylvester chases him out by way of a stick of dynamite tied to a balloon sent up the flue. Sam quickly escapes the chimney when he sees the dynamite, then when the balloon supposedly floats away, Sam reenters the chimney, but the balloon floats back down and he's blown up.

All for Nothing / Not What It Looks Like: Shortly after ousting Sam, Sylvester's attempts to avoid Granny's threat are in vain. When Granny sees Sylvester putting Tweety back in his cage, she assumes he was trying to eat him again and promises to make good on her threat.

Key Under the Doormat: Hoping to keep Sylvester out of the house when she is gone and away from Tweety, Granny hides the house key under the doormat. Unfortunately, she doesn't count on Sylvester already having hidden under the doormat himself!

You Wouldn't Believe Me If I Told You: Sylvester tried to explain what really happened after he was trying to put Tweety back in his cage as Granny returned home. Needless to say, it was no use.
