Funny / Wunschpunsch

• "Off the Walls": Maurizio and Jacob observe the scene, and Maurizio concludes that it seems very peaceful. He suggests going back home and continuing his knight film, but Jacob wants to sunbathe. While he's relaxing, he doesn't notice that some living drawings of hands are sneaking up behind Maurizio and giving him a massage. Maurizio thinks it's Jacob giving him the massage.
• "Once Upon a Potion": The Wizard of Oz telling Moe and Jake that they've "bumbled, big time".
• "Car Wars": Jacob's first try at driving is beyond normal levels of bad: he doesn't so much careen down the hill as wildly bounce fifty feet into the air over the other side of the hill and crash on top of other cars.
• "The Wild, Wild Pets":
  • Maurizio congratulates Jacob on saving him from a little dog who had attacked him in a fight (which Maurizio started because the dog was chasing Jacob).
    Maurizio: Boy, you could have been torn to shreds.
    Jacob: Yeah, torn to shreds. Excuse me. I, uh, have to faint now. [He pitches forward onto the ground]
    Maurizio (candidly): My hero. My friend.
  • How Jacob saves Maurizio is funny, too. The dog roars in his face and Jacob responds: "Chicken! Bawk-bawk-bawk-bawk-bawk!"
• "Lost Spell": In the German version, Maurizio thinks that Ravenia's nickname for Jacob, "Krakel-racker", sounds like "Kranker dackel" ("Sick dachshund").
• "Sand Witch": Maurizio accidentally whacks Jacob in the face with a shovel.
• "Bubonic Plague":
  • When Maurizio is taking Jacob to the botanical gardens:
  Maurizio: Don't worry, Jacob. I'll make sure you find a nice, quiet place to recover.
  Jacob: DO YOU HAVE TO BE SO LOUD?
  Maurizio: Sorry...
  • Jacob despairs the prospect of having to spend the rest of his life as a chicken. Maurizio quips, "You could always be a hamburger." Jacob gives him a dirty look, and Maurizio explains that he was just joking.
  • In the zoo, Chicken!Jacob whines like a child about how he used to be a wise raven.
  • Chicken!Jacob pretends to be drowning in a fountain so that one of the Tyrannia copies can save him. When that fails, he remarks, "What does a bird have to do to get noticed around here?"
• "Ghost Town":
  • Bubonic and Tyrannia set a trap to catch the ghost by bringing out a tray of food. The ghost snatches the tray and Tyrannia slams the urn against Bubonic's head.
  • While Maurizio and Jacob are dressing up in costumes as part of a plan to end the spell, Maurizio comments, "We really look scary! Worse than Tyrannia."
• "You Must Be Joking": Jacob and Maurizio wonder how to make people cry to break the spell.
  Maurizio: I'm not hurting anyone. It's against the heroes' code of honor.
  Jacob: Relax, Lancelot. There's more than one way to skin a cat. (Maurizio looks hurt) Sorry. Poor choice of words.
• "By a Hair's Breadth":
  • Maurizio loses all of his hair and is so embarrassed that he hides his exposed skin in a trash can, and keeps bumping everywhere. So they have to cut eyeholes in the can.
  • When Maurizio despairs about losing his hair, Jacob consoles him by assuring him that Bubonic didn't mean to strip him of all of his fur. Then he mutters to himself, "Jeez, you're glad to have feathers..." He then notices that Maurizio heard him.
  • To reverse the curse, Maurizio needs to pull a feather from Jacob's wing. As he reaches for the wing, Jacob suddenly yelps.
    Maurizio: I didn't pull it yet!
    Jacob: So? Can't a guy practice?
  • When Maurizio tries to pull a feather, he asks Jacob to think of a happy memory. Jacob remembers lying in a nest, his wings around two pretty robins, one feeding him a worm. Record Needle Scratch ensues when he hears Maurizio's voice say, "Ready?"
• "Goin' Garbanzo": Jacob tells a lightbulb joke to Meathead, who doesn't react to the joke.
  Jacob: If there's one thing I can't stand, it's a carnivorous plant with no sense of humor.
• "The Night of Wishes": Maggot coming to visit Bubonic and being disappointed with his sorcery record.
  Bubonic: But... Potion Ninety-Two is almost ready! And I guarantee that it is the nastiest...
  Maggot: POTION NINETY-TWO IS A PATHETIC PIECE OF CRAP!
• "Life with Maggot":
  • Bubonic wonders why all the pets they have are making noise. Tyrannia whispers to Bubonic that it's dinnertime. Bubonic repeats what she said, louder. Big Ball of Violence ensues.
  • Maurizio notes that Maggot showers with his briefcase.
• "Let's Break a Deal": When looking for answers, Jacob reads a fortune from a fortune telling machine. It says, "Your charming personality can really cast a spell". Maurizio remarks, "I know. What else is new?"
• "Slowly But Surely":
  • Maurizio goes flying off of a fire truck ladder and lands in a trash can. He seems to have fallen asleep again when Jacob comes running.
    Maurizio: I'm not asleep. I... am knocked out.
  • In the German version, when Oakfoot/Florian asks Jacob and Maurizio why they're making so much noise, Jacob replies "Intervention, Florian. Music versus magic!"
• "Gloom with a View":
  • Maggot unceremoniously appearing from beneath Tyrannia.
    Bubonic: I told you he never comes through the door.
  • Jacob and Maurizio spot the Cozies literally crying over spilled milk. Jacob wants to get over to Auntie Noah's but Maurizio tells him they can't just leave the milk there. Jacob gives him an angry glare. Moe gives the raven a nervous "Or, maybe not" smile and walks on behind him with a "You're no fun" look on his face.
• "Mayor for a Day": Jacob in Maurizio's body remarks to himself that it's a lucky thing a cat always lands on his feet... while he's just landed on his back.
• "Good for Nothing": Jacob appears to beat himself up again for allowing Tyrannia to find her half of the parchment.
  Maurizio: Don't start, Jacob. We'll find a way out of this!
  Jacob: I know. I was just trying to spur you into action.
• "Fancy Footwork":
  • Auntie Noah has to sing the riddle, because the spell involves music.
    Jacob: (desperately) I don't care if you have to recite it standing on your head! Just give it to us!
    Auntie Noah: My, aren't we pushy today.
  • She sings it very badly (not that Maurizio and Jacob are any better). And when she's done:
    Auntie Noah: Care for an encore?
    Jacob and Maurizio: No!
• "Drop Me a Line": Jacob asks Auntie Noah for the riddle. She replies, "Of course, and you won't have to wait in line". Cue unamused looks from Maurizio and Jacob.
• "Simply Irresistible": Jacob suggests that Maurizio kiss Tyrannia to break the spell. Maurizio is horrified to say the least. Even better, Rick Jones' voice cracks when he says the line, "Oh, yuck, yuck and triple yuck!"
• "The Pinocchio Syndrome": One of the ingredients for the liar spell is a book of political promises.
• "Perchance to Dream - Not":
  • Jacob comes to wake Maurizio up to tell him that the wizards are about to cast another spell. Maurizio - ever the heavy sleeper - is not enthusiastic about being woken up in the middle of the night.
    Jacob (sternly): Duty calls!
    Maurizio: Tell it to call back in the morning.
  • Tyrannia has Bubonic scan the Mayor's dream, and sees that he's dreaming of being admired by an adoring crowd.
    Tyrannia: Politicians!
  • After Jacob and Maurizio observe the wizards turning people's dreams into nightmares, Jacob decides to remove himself from the scene.
    Jacob: Let's go somewhere I can hear myself think. This spell is giving me a headache.
