Can anyone think of any particular plot outlines to episodes of cartoons that were used on different shows?
I was thinking about the plot idea of a bully coming to settle with one of the show's protagonists, and the protagonist thinks he's gonna get beat up, but it turns out, the former bully just wants to apologize some how. It's been used in at least 3 different cartoon shows, and perhaps maybe more.
-In the Catillac Cats episode "High Goon", Riff Raff gets word that Cleo's ex-boyfriend is coming to town to meet Riff Raff, and Riff thinks he's gonna get his butt kicked, but it turns out the guy just wants to apologize.
-In one of the "U.S. Acres" episodes from Garfield & Friends, Orson re-encounters a former bully who gives him back all the money he took from him in school.
-An episode of "Rocko's Modern Life" did the same plot, but satirized it. Rocko's former bully became a peacenik, but still asked for Rocko to punch him in the nose. Rocko does so, reluctantly. Later The former bully gets attacked by Heffer and Filbert.
Can anyone think of other plots that have been used on different shows?
