The Blow Out
Directed by Tex Avery
Produced by Warner Bros. Cartoons, Leon Schlesinger Productions
A lighthearted 1930s cartoon that juggles a comedic bomber threat with Porky Pig's innocent quest for an ice cream soda, prioritizing slapstick fun and earnest charm over genuine menace.
A crazed bomber is terrorizing the city. Meanwhile, a young Porky Pig is a few cents shy of buying an ice cream soda; he starts earning it by picking up items people drop and handing them back to them.
