Papa Wolf/Western Animation: Difference between revisions

* [[Archer]]'s way of handling folks who threaten his daughter... Well, maybe ''he'' can explain it better:

{{quote|Archer: "So here's the thing, Farooq. I don't know about any stories, but whatever badass shit that you heard I did? You really need some context, because pretty much my whole life, pretty much right up until this minute, my default setting has been half-assed." ''(cracks knuckles)'' "But that was before I had a child. A child you threatened to harm. A child, I just realized, who's probably on her way up to the roof so Aunt Pam can swat at biplanes! So imagine, as I literally beat you to death - Hang on… [[Not Hyperbole| Yeah, literally]] - that a giant hand has turned my dial from half-assed to quadruple-assed!}}

{{quote|'''Batman:''' I don't pass sentence. That's for the courts to decide. [[OOC Is Serious Business|But this time]], '''this time''', I am ''sorely'' tempted to do the job myself.}}

* ''[[The Secret Saturdays]]'': Solomon "Doc" Saturday is both [[Team Dad]] and [[Papa Wolf]].

* ''[[Darkwing Duck]]'', whose [[Tomboy]] daughter Gosalyn has a habit of getting into trouble like making a [[Deal with the Devil]] or releasing an evil [[Trickster]] spirit. He even finds himself unable to leave the [[Mirror Universe]] without [[Merged Reality|merging the two]] because he can't help thinking of Gosalyn's counterpart as his own daughter. And yes, he has worried about his enemies using her to get to him.

{{quote|'''Thug:''' ''"I thought that old guy inside was your daddy."''

'''Bobby:''' ''"No, no! This is my daddy! This one right here, the one with the golf club!"'' }}

* ''[[Danny Phantom]]'': Ever seen a [[Bumbling Dad]] battle and win against a 50-foot-[[Our Ghosts Are Different|ghost monster]]? Congratulations, you have been pwned by Jack Fenton. Now leave his kids alone.

* In ''[[The Fairly OddParents]]'', even an [[Adult Child]] [[Bumbling Dad]] like Mr. Turner is capable of fighting with teeth and paws to defend Timmy. Just watch the episode where Timmy wishes he could merge with dad's [[Cool Car]], then Vicky steals the car and he believes Timmy is stuck in it...

** Both of Timmy's parents, despite being [[Abusive Parents|comically irresponsible]] enough to leave him with an evil babysitter, have gone to crazy lengths to protect Timmy. This came to the fore when Timmy wishes they had superpowers, and he ends up using this to his advantage when convincing them to give up their powers.

** Don't forget the end of the Fairly Oddparents movie, where Papa Wolf dad and Mama Bear...mom double-team Mr. Crocker for abusing their son. Much ass kicking ensues.

{{quote|'''Mrs. Turner:''' I'll go for his teeth.

'''Mr. Turner:''' [[Heroic Sociopath|And]] ''[[Heroic Sociopath|I'll]]'' [[Eye Scream|claw out his eyes]]! }}

* ''[[Tom and Jerry]]'': We all know Jerry Mouse is no push-over in regards to Tom the Cat. But if Tom ever lays a paw on Nibbles/Tuffy, the local [[Heartwarming Orphan]] and Jerry's adoptive pup, he's in for ''even more'' of a pain in the tail than usual. Nibbles/Tuffy's introductory episode leaves the deal ''very'' clear; Tom spanks the little mouse and, after releasing himself from a trap and checking on the other's well-being, Jerry lets out an enraged ''lion's roar'' and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbHrcxtkEwU&t=5m45s brutally beats up Tom].

** You also don't mess with the local [[Bully Bulldog|neighborhood bulldog]] Spike's son, Tyke, in any fashion, though that really should be obvious.

* ''[[American Dad]]'' also does this. "Surro-Gate" is a good example, as it shows a [[Camp Gay]] who previously solved fights with dance moves out of ''[[West Side Story]]'' punching out Stan in one hit after he kidnaps the guy's daughter.

{{quote|'''Stan:''' That's not campy. That's not campy at all.}}

* Private of ''[[The Penguins of Madagascar]]'' has shown this. When the penguins are tasked with taking care of an egg in shifts, Private is so horrified by the other penguins' rough handling that he steals the egg away and snaps at Skipper.

* ''[[The Venture Brothers]]'': Brock Samson is the Alpha [[Papa Wolf]] whenever someone threatens the Venture family. See ''Victor. Echo. November.'' for the naked, murderous evidence.

* [[Mad Scientist|Dr. Doofenshmirtz]] of ''[[Phineas and Ferb]]'' may be an incompetent villain, but don't even try to hit on his underage daughter unless you want to quickly be teleported to another, monster-filled dimension.

** Perry the Platypus, especially when it comes to Phineas and Ferb. There was one time when [[Friendly Enemy]] Doofenshmirtz indirectly threatened Phineas and Ferb with his latest scheme, Perry quickly beat him up, handcuffed him, and called for backup all [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqry5YoR9Bo#t=5m within ten seconds.]

* The cartoon version of [[Beetlejuice (animation)|Beetlejuice]] is typically an easy-going prankster whose main interest is driving the rest of the Neitherworld crazy. But on those rare occasions when Lydia is in serious danger, Beetlejuice will show just how he got the title of Ghost With The Most. Insulting or humiliating Lydia is also a bad idea, as [[Alpha Bitch|Claire Brewster]] found out the hard way on more than one occasion.

* ''[[The Ren and Stimpy Show]]'' ... In "A Visit To Anthony," Ren and Stimpy are severely intimidated by Anthony's father. And they have every reason to be. He's very large, heavily muscled, despite his age, and unlike most of the "lummoxes" seen in the show, he is not only healthy-looking, but reasonably intelligent. Just getting a threatening speech from him puts the fear of god into you. His silent rage is even more frightening when coupled with his weeping when he thinks his son is in danger.

* Inverted in ''[[Godzilla: The Series]]'' where Godzilla Jr will go to crazy lengths to protect his adopted father Nick.

** But played straight with Nick. If you are human and you do something that harms Godzilla Jr, Nick will end you.
