Baby Clogging is a 1946 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes drawing directed by Bob Clampett and written past Warren Foster.[1] The drawing was released on March xvi, 1946, and stars Daffy Duck and Porky Pig.[ii] Tweety makes a cameo advent in the moving-picture show.
Plot [edit]
As the mail-World War Ii baby boom explodes, an overworked stork (patterned after comedian Jimmy Durante) gets drunk in the Stork Guild, complaining that he does all the work and the fathers get all the credit. Inexperienced animals; among them a dog with a propeller-powered tail carrying bundles of babies, 4 crows attempting to deliver an elephant, a pelican with elementary devices to help haul the babies in its bill, and a mouse dragging a baby rhino; are among those commissioned to handle the increased workload every bit they take the babies to their parents. Because of the inexperience of the substitutes, babies are getting sent to the wrong parents; a mother goose is disgusted by her baby skunk, a baby kitten refuses to swim for its mother duck, a babe gorilla rides uncomfortably in the pouch of a Kangaroo, a Scottie Domestic dog tries to rock his hippo to slumber, and two parents receive offspring that try to eat them—a kitten to a terrified mouse and an alligator to a pig.
Porky Pig is brought in to manage Storks Inc. and its assembly line, with Daffy Duck every bit his banana. While Daffy mans the phones, making quick references to Bing Crosby ("I'1000 sad, Bing, you've used upward your quota."), Eddie Cantor ("You say you oasis't got that male child yet?") and the Dionne Quintuplets' father ("Mr. Dionne, please!"), Porky runs the control room, contacting references to Roydan Stork, Jimmy Doolittle as Jimmy Doo-quite-a-piffling, and a B-xix. So a dog worker, obviously research and development, comes in through Porky's door and tells him that strapping a skyrocket to the back would speed things exponentially, but the rocket exploded earlier the transport-off. It's back to the drawing lath for that idea.
And so Daffy yells, "Fffull-speed alee!" and Porky pulled the switch equally the babies (among them Tweety in a cursory cameo) are seen going through a conveyor belt (to the tune of Raymond Scott'due south famous "Powerhouse") as they are diapered, fed milk and mechanically burped before they are sent past various animals, one of which is a baby hippo crying loudly and paused as it cutely said, "I'thou only 3½ seconds old," before resuming its wailing. Several minor mishaps happen along the associates line; the motorcar that diapers babies is presented with a baby turtle but works around information technology by taking the baby out their vanquish, then when the milk feeding machine tries to feed the turtle, it ends upwards flooding the shell, forcing the turtle to bond the milk out while badmouthing the car; when the milk feeding auto begins sprays milk over a puppy'due south diaper, it begins crying as an alarm all of a sudden sounds. In response, Porky pulls a lever that sends the puppy to be given a rather quick bathroom.
Issues, however, occur when Porky, reading the tags from the other babies, finds a stray egg is without an accost and decides to have Daffy sit on it until information technology hatches. However, Daffy refuses to sit around on pinnacle of an egg. Porky chases Daffy around the factory (complete with an imitation of Porky by Daffy) until they wind upwards trapped on the conveyor belt. The belt winds upwards stuffing both of them into one package (with Porky as the legs and Daffy every bit the acme one-half) and sends them off to Africa via a stork-shaped skyrocket (Patent Awaiting), where a gorilla is waiting for her arrival. When the gorilla looks at the "baby" she sees Daffy Duck crying, Porky peeks through the diaper, maxim, "Uh, boo...", causing the gorilla to cry on the telephone, "Mr. Anthony, I accept a problem!!" (a reference to John J. Anthony, who conducted a daily radio communication program at the fourth dimension called The Goodwill 60 minutes; its stock phrase was "I take a problem, Mr. Anthony").
Censorship [edit]
When the alligator is trying to get milk from Mrs. Sus scrofa, she starts to say something earlier it abruptly cuts. According to Bob Clampett, she says "Don't touch on that dial" (a common cliché when radio or television shows cut to commercial). It was cut out considering the Hays Office accounted it likewise risqué. No footage has surfaced of the original uncut scene.
Reception [edit]
Michael Barrier writes, "Baby Bottleneck, like Book Revue (1946), reveals merely how groovy Bob Clampett'south impact was on the Warner Bros. cartoons in the early 1940s... As so often in Clampett'south all-time cartoons, there is a prevailing air of hysteria and madness: The stork is drunk, inexperienced help is delivering babies to the incorrect mothers, everything is a mess — and all is bliss."[3]
