* ForInconveniencePressOne: In "Almost There", Fox in Socks and Mr Knox have won a free vacation. However, they have to claim it at the travel center where they're confronted by a screen with a cheerful, computerized "Travel Poobah", who gives them 100 options to press, none of which are claiming free tickets. The last option is "If you would like to speak to a real person, press 0". Knox does, and she says "Well, why didn't you say so in the first place?" The entire screen then rises up to reveal that the real, decidedly uncheerful Travel Poobah has been standing behind it the entire time.

When they travel aboard a zeppelin piloted by Horton, they are in danger of crashing into a mountain and have to throw something overboard to make the zeppelin rise. At first, Sue, Fox, and Knox all turn their attention to Horton, since he's an elephant, but decide against tossing him overboard since he's the pilot. Horton instead tosses out the three 25-karat donuts in the box, much to Sue's dismay (he didn't find them very tasty). This results in the zeppelin flying over the mountain, but he unfortunately tosses out too much weight, causing the zeppelin to fly too high, and into thin air.
