Skyscraper Caper is a 1968 Looney Tunes short directed by Alex Lovy.
Plot
Speedy Gonzales finds Daffy Duck sleepwalking one night and offers to guard him at night to keep him safe. Speedy rigs a bell on a string to the bed so he can nap instead of work, but Daffy gets up on the other side of the bed and sleepwalks out the window and into the ACME construction site.
Censorship
- On NBC's The Daffy and Speedy Show and Nickelodeon's Looney Tunes on Nickelodeon, the scene of Speedy Gonzales saving Daffy from falling off an I-beam at a construction site with a lasso, only for the lasso to wrap around Daffy's neck like a noose was cut.[1] Though this has never aired on Cartoon Network's American channel (mostly because of CN America's ban on Speedy Gonzales cartoons for racial stereotyping), Cartoon Network channels outside of America have aired this uncut (as evidenced by the video on this page).
Notes
- This is one of the few rare occasions that Daffy Duck and Speedy Gonzales are portrayed as friends instead of enemies.
