* EscapeArtist: As Mr. Tristan provides the captain with some rope to hang Daffy, the duck snatches the rope away to use for a new trick: he has Mr. Tristan to tie his hands behind his back, and lock him into a wooden chest, from which he will escape in ten seconds. Mr. Tristan complies, telling the captain, "Simple trick; anybody can do it -- but ''he'' can't!" Indeed, Daffy is so inept at his stunt that it takes him ''ten days'', plus some assistance from Mr. Tristan, to escape. By now, Daffy is a ragged mess with sharp teeth.

* {{Bowdlerization}}: Given the cartoon's subject matter (not only Daffy being hanged, but also locked in a trunk for an extended period of time), it seldom, if ever, is shown on television, though Cartoon Network, Boomerang and now [=MeTV=] do show this uncut and uncensored. Nickelodeon and the now-defunct WB! network, on the other hand, have heavily censored this cartoon, with all scenes of Daffy in a noose and locked in a trunk being edited, resulting in a very short and incoherent cartoon.

-->'''Ship's captain'''
"Good Noose" is a 1962 WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes short staring WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck. It was directed by Creator/RobertMcKimson.
A ship's captain threatens to execute any stowaways on his ship by hanging them in a noose. He then sends out his parrot, Mr. Tristan, to track down any such stowaways. Eventually, Mr. Tristan does find one stowaway: Daffy Duck, who tries to elude death by hanging by posing as a StageMagician, with questionable results.
Also of note, this is officially the first Warner Bros. cartoon whose music was fully composed by William Lava. Lava had begun at Warners by finishing up the music for ''WesternAnimation/TheJetCage'' after composer Milt Franklyn died during production, leaving only the first third of the cartoon scored.

!!"Good Noose" provides examples of:
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: The ship's captain is clearly a caricature of Creator/CharlesLaughton as [[Film/MutinyOnTheBounty Captain Bligh]]. Incidentally, the real Laughton passed away just after this cartoon's release.
* PirateParrot: Not a ''pirate'' parrot, but Mr. Tristan does serve as the captain's aid in ferreting out any stragglers on the ship.
* StageMagician: How Daffy tries to act to avoid hanging. His efforts are of course dismal.
