Line 11:
* [[Bedsheet Ladder]]: Used by the wolf to scale the prison walls.
* [[Behind a Stick]]: Parodied. After one of the Wolf's escape montages ends with him on a tiny island large enough for him, a rock and a pebble:
{{quote|'''Wolf:''' (snarkily) [[Genre Savvy|Yeah, I know.]] (points to the rock) He'll probably be right under that rock.
'''Droopy:''' (emerging from beneath the pebble that's smaller than his hat) Nope, under ''this'' one.
'''Wolf:''' (has nervous breakdown.) }}
* [[Born in the Theatre]]: Wolfie nearly runs off the very film on which the short was printed. Then he runs into a movie theater and watches the beginning of an MGM animated short, which turns out to be Droopy stalking him again.
Line 20:
* [[Driven to Suicide]]: "That's the last straw. I give up — I'm gonna throw myself to the lions!" And the wolf jumps into a lion's stomach.
{{quote|'''Droopy:''' Crowded, isn't it?}}
* [[Exaggerated Trope]]: At the end of the short, {{spoiler|the [[Twin Switch]] [[Doing inIn the Wizard|rationalization]] for [[Offscreen Teleportation]] is expanded to a whole platoon of Droopys}}.
* [[Got Volunteered]]: How Droopy is selected for the mission.
* [[Institutional Apparel]]: The Wolf's old-school black-and-white striped uniform.
Line 33:
* [[X Meets Y]]: It's "Dumb-Hounded" mixed with Tex's earlier [[Warner Bros]]. cartoon "Tortoise Beats Hare".
