The Potty", Chuckie has a nightmare where his potty-training is like death row, complete with screams of "Not the chair! NOT THE CHAIR!" Just to make it even creepier, the sequence features all of the babies-Phil and Lil appear as the prison guards that march Chuckie to the chair, and Tommy is an eerily calm priest who tries to console him. In the episode "Reptar on Ice" there was a creepy scene showing the lizard's point of view of how humans look, first Tommy's face up close, then Phil and Lil ◊, it is really horrifying. This video goes into more detail about the post office journey. That's just the most well known scene.note However, the skeleton could have just been an old Halloween prop.

If you’re familiar with the story of Moses, the Pharaoh orders the first-borns to be killed. The Passover special, with Angelica as the Pharaoh.The animation of Phil when he says, "A fish bowl? There's no fish in that thing, Lilian!".Chuckie and Angelica don't appear either. The worst part are the two characters who don't appear in the series proper, possibly being early versions of Betty and Howard, but very different-looking.
