Cruisin' for a Bruisin is the seventh episode of T.U.F.F. Puppy and the first season.
Synopsis
The episode starts off at the Petropolis shipping docks, where Dudley, Kitty, the Chief, and Keswick are boarding for a cruise. When Dudley asks if they should be doing this, Kitty assures him that T.U.F.F. and D.O.O.M. having an agreement that they both take a vacation on the last week of August.
Back at D.O.O.M. headquarters, however, Snaptrap reveals that he has no intention of fulfilling his part of the agreement, much to the disappointment of his henchmen. Snaptrap plans to use a mobile iceberg (powered by Larry, and which comes with a salad bar!) to smash the ship the T.U.F.F. Agents are on, so with them out of the way,they can take over the world.
Back on the cruise, Dudley annoys Kitty to no extent, so she lies to him and tells him that they're not really on vacation, they're on a stakeout, in the hopes that he will leave her alone... and later realizes that this was a mistake. Dudley ends up ruining Kitty's own personal vacation, causing the usual amount of destruction he does back home, and forcing Kitty to lie even more.
Meanwhile, in Snaptrap's iceberg lair, Snaptrap and his crew are having a moderately less bad time trying to reach the ship, with Larry trying to reach Acapulco, and Ollie accidentally giving his boss blue cheese, which he's allergic to.
On the cruise, Kitty is almost on the brink of severely injuring Dudley, when Dudley spots Snaptrap's iceberg. Kitty, however, can't see the iceberg due to a fogbank, then admits that she lied to Dudley just to get him away from her. Dudley, crestfallen, still decides to save the ship... and knocks the captain overboard, and gets the captain's hat. Kitty sees the iceberg and realizes that Dudley was telling the truth. Dudley then gets the idea to use Kitty's T.U.F.F. high tech tan mirror to melt Snaptrap's iceberg. Snaptrap and his goons are captured and Dudley decides to give them the ultimate punishment for them... listening to Keswick's bad karaoke.
Trivia
- This is the first episode in which Snaptrap's cheese allergy is brought up.
- This could be the second time, however. This episode was produced after Operation: Happy Birthday where it was brought up again, meaning this one may take place after Kitty's birthday.
- Ollie and Larry appear, and speak for the first time in the series.
- This episode is a parody of the 1997 film Titanic, primarily noting the fact that in one scene, the Chief can be seen on the dock spreading his arms wide, bellowing: "I'm Chief of the world!", in similarity to Leonardo DiCaprio's "I'm King of the world!"
- In this episode, the number of of injuries caused by Dudley is four, with three involving Kitty.
- Running Gag: Keswick annoying people by not finishing "Row Row Row Your Boat".
Goofs
- According to this episode, the Chief has Fabio-style hair, but he's supposed to be bald.
