"Den Mother Johnny" is a Season 2 episode of Johnny Bravo.
Synopsis[]
Johnny gives Bunny schmutzweed (which she is allergic to), resulting in him taking over his mother's duties as den mother to Suzy's Buttercup scout troop.
Trivia[]
- It is revealed in this episode that the schmutzweed Johnny gives is a birthday gift, only for Bunny to point out her birthday's three months ago, he quickly switches to saying "Happy Take-Your-Chimp-To-Work Day" which she points out that it does not exist here. As he wonders today must be some sort of special day, she says to him it is been four years ago today (before this episode) she had her neck-flap reduction, he eventually says "Happy Neck-Flap-Reduction Day, Mama"
- This episode revealed that Johnny's brain is so small and dumb that after learning that Suzy and her troop sold his collection of Squint Ringo stuff, it took him 21 seconds to respond.
Cultural References[]
- As Johnny has a nightmare about chimps on horses, he gets caught in a net and references the film Planet of the Apes, yelling, "Get your hands off me, you darn dirty ape!"
- The same reference is also made in a later episode, "Back From The Future", albeit further from the original quote.
