- 1959–196229mTV EpisodeDavey Cricket Pie-N-Ear Pictures is offering $100,000 to anyone who can bring back Davey Cricket - the coonskin-capped, gun-toting hero of the west - so that they can star him in his own life story. The trouble is, the insect hates Hollywood. Captain Huffenpuff, Beany and Cecil search for him in the heart of Eight-Nine-Tennessee, right in the Davey Cricket thicket. But so does Dishonest John, the head of Citrus Pictures. ("If it's a Citrus picture, it's a lemon.") "I've made bee Pictures," says D.J., "but never cricket pictures." There's always a first time, and so Dishonest John takes his compact car to the Fly By-Nite airport, gets into the cockpit of an outdated plane and flies to Eight-Nine-Tennessee. Meanwhile, our heroes are at the edge of the forest. They come across a sign that says, "Get lost." It's signed, Davey Cricket. They see a wildcat, a bear and a redskin go in the forest. They all come out frightened out of their wits. It seems Davey Cricket is one tough cricket. D.J. flies over Davey Cricket's cabin, jumps out of his plane with only an umbrella for a parachute and enters the cabin through the chimney. He tries to convince Davey to sign his "con"-tract and agree to star in his motion picture. He promises the cricket fame and a Beverly Hills mansion. But they'll have to change his name. "Davey Cricket" isn't commercial enough. D.J. suggests "Davey Crackpot." D.J. powders Davey's face, applies lipstick to his little insect lips, and then attempts to film him for a screen test. Davey has had enough of this Hollywood phoney. He throws D.J. in front of the camera and powders the villain's face - only Davey uses gun powder. D.J.'s cigar ignites it, and the explosion leaves him tattered. But the cricket isn't finished with him yet. He puts a headdress on D.J., puts on a cavalryman's hat and stabs him in the behind with a sword. Davey, riding his bearskin rug, chases D.J. through the forest. He trees the villain, and then runs up the tree himself, slicing it up with his sword so that it becomes a totem pole with D.J. as the figure on top. "Makeup!" cries the cricket. Another hit with the gun-powdered powder puff causes another explosion, which topples D.J. from the totem pole. D.J. runs into a hollow log - causing a skunk to rush out holding its nose. The cricket chops the hollow log into slices. D.J. is forced into one of the slices, which Davey flicks with his fingers, causing it to roll down a rocky mountain. D.J. rolls past our heroes, causing Cecil to cry, "What the heck?" D.J. finally rolls past a sign that says, "To Hollywood." And then he rolls off a cliff, which has a sign pointing downwards. It say, "To oblivion." Our heroes encounter the cricket in the forest, and Captain Huffenpuff asks him to sign his contract. Davey insists that nothing could get him to come to Hollywood. He's wrong. Cecil introduces the cricket to his beautiful leading ladybug and Davey immediately signs. Cecil wonders aloud if the two will ever get married. "Never!" cries Davey. "Remember the alimony!" Strange Objects Beany, Cecil and Huffenpuff pay a visit to their "friendly enemy, Dishonest John" at the hospital. John, who is in traction and bandaged from head to foot, tells them the story of how he came to be in this state. "Well, it all started the day I read about a strange object straightening out the Leaning Tower of Pizza Pie, turning off Niagara Falls and filling up the Grand Canyon." D.J. figured that if he captured it, he could be famous. The scene dissolves into a flashback, showing D.J. in his submarine, the S.S. Pole-Aris Cat. Using his periscope, D.J. spots Beepin' Tom in his "rickety rocket ship." Beepin' Tom is a little green man, and his rocket ship is shaped like a flying saucer. Beepin' Tom speaks in beeps, and each time he does so, a speech balloon with a car horn appears above his head. He also speaks in half-unintelligible songs, which his word balloons decipher as rebuses. D.J. brings his ship to the surface and climbs out to try his first trick. He captures Beepin' Tom with a large magnet, which pulls the spaceship to him. But then Beepin' Tom pulls both D.J. and the magnet out of the ship and then spins his spaceship around, causing D.J. to spin with it. Then he presses his demagnetizer button, and D.J. is suddenly unstuck to the spinning ship. Centrifugal force causes D.J. to fly helplessly back to the submarine and hit the periscope with a bang. Next, D.J. tries his "long-range, handy-dandy rocket grabber," which looks exactly like a vacuum cleaner. Beepin' Tom drops a bomb into the machine. D.J. pulls it out, tears off the fuse and throws away the bomb. Unfortunately, the lone fuse explodes anyway, leaving poor D.J. a mess. This time, D.J. uses a cannon. But Beepin' Tom covers the hole with his ship. When D.J. triggers the cannon, the back of it explodes, leaving D.J. temporarily without a head. Now, D.J. tries to build his own spaceship. Beepin' Tom sabotages him by secretly altering the blueprint. D.J.'s first flight sends his machine falling into the ocean. D.J. rebuilds his ship and uses it to chase Beepin' Tom. But the space alien manages to destroy the villain's ship over and over. Finally, Beepin' Tom lures D.J. to a mountain. He flies through it by sawing out the middle with his ship, which he has just turned into a buzz saw. This leaves the top of the mountain temporarily suspended in midair. As D.J. tries to follow, the top of the mountain falls and crushes him. We return to the hospital, where D.J. declares how grateful he is that he'll never see Beepin' Tom again. But the space alien suddenly flies in and uses his spaceship to cut the wires holding up D.J.'s casts. A bottle of castor oil falls from a shelf and into D.J.'s mouth, leaving the villain no choice but to drink it all. Cecil laughs. "D.J. finally got a taste of his own medicine."
