Episode synopsis
A clown (who looks and speaks like the Jerry Lewis-esque Mr. Director) is hired by Mr. Plotz for Wakko's birthday party, but Plotz learns from Dr. Scratchansniff that, like Mr. Plotz, Wakko has a bad fear of clowns, resulting in the clown being battered and bruised. The skit has become somewhat of an internet meme.
About Animaniacs
The two Warner Brothers Yakko and Wakko and their Warner sister Dot had been (supposedly) created in the 1930's, but their cartoons were too screwy for the general public to handle. The three Warners were locked up in the studio water tower until they escaped in the 90's. There, they run wild, causing chaos everywhere!
