The Itchy & Scratchy Show Episode Information
|
"The Sounds of Silencers" is an episode of The Itchy & Scratchy Show. While Bart was working at the Legitimate Businessman's Social Club, he and the club's patrons saw the cartoon on the club's TV.
Plot[edit]
Police Officer Itchy is reviewing a lineup of cat suspects who are standing up against a wall. Itchy holds his billy club while he thinks, thumping it into the palm of his hand. Then he tosses the club aside, draws a tommygun, and starts blasting away at the lineup, riddling all of the suspects with bullets. The suspects all fall down dead. Then Itchy fires at the wall again, spelling out "THE END" with bullet holes. As Itchy makes the "D", one last cat suspect comes in and is hit with the bullets for the "D". The last suspect collapses and dies, revealing "THE END" written on the wall in bullet holes with a blood-smeared "D".
Reactions[edit]
Bart and the Legitimate Businessmen all enjoyed the cartoon. Fat Tony said, "It's funny because it's true."
Behind the Laughter[edit]
- Based on the Saint Valentine's Day Massacre of 1929.
- "The Sounds of Silencers" is a rare appearance of Itchy without Scratchy (none of the cat suspects in the lineup are identified as being Scratchy). Bugs Moran, the leader and intended target of the Saint Valentine's Day Massacre, was also not present as he stopped to get a haircut.
