Curse of Babel: Difference between revisions

* In one episode of ''[[Batman Beyond]]'', Shriek messes with soundwaves, preventing anyone in Gotham City from being able to communicate intelligibly.

* In ''[[Futurama]]'', Leela learns that some giant alien brains are rendering everyone on Earth into idiots... and then she falls under their power, too, and can barely talk well enough to explain the problem to the one person who can help.

'''Leela''': "Nooo!" }}

* In one episode of ''[[My Life as a Teenage Robot]]'', Jenny saves Tokyo from some monsters and comes back home after. Problem is, she had switched language discs from English to Japanese and lost her English disc in Tokyo. She suffers the majority of the episode--and half a battle with the Japanese monsters--speaking Japanese, even though [[Fridge Logic|one assumes her mother could've just burned her a new english disc]]. Luckily, a kid she saved back in Japan shows up with a tour group to give the English disc to her.
