* A pretty disturbing one from 1932's ''Film/WhatPriceHollywood''. Finding out that Lonnie doesn't like blondes actresses and is a general snob, Mary ignores his earnest pursuit of her. Having stood him up, he gets so angry that he ''breaks down her window'', gets ''into'' her house, ''takes'' her to his house while she’s still in her negligée, and ''forces'' her to eat the meal he prepared. We’re supposed to take this as romantic.

** However it also varies from cartoon to cartoon. In many cases the object of his affections ''does'' openly reciprocate, but only flees because of his smell. A very frequent ending in these cartoons is for Pepe's smell to be somehow eliminated, (perfume, water, his love interest catches cold, etc.) and ''he'' runs away from an aggressively amorous pursuer.
