DILBERT THE DUCK: Duck and Cover

Episode 3: Dilbert the Duck and Succulent try to weather a rain storm at night. Sleep eludes poor Dilbert– but his travel buddy Succulent seems to have fallen right to sleep. After a few hours of exhaustion, Dilbert finally manages to get in a little sleep– though it may not as restful as he’d hoped. A dream turned nightmare makes Dilbert’s night a little too much to take. 

Based on Dilbert the Duck by Debbie Houghton. Animated by Justin Harmon. 

Music by Bensounds. 
Sound Effects by ZapSplat.
*Parody Space Odyssey: 2001 Stanley Kubrick “Thus Spake Zarathustra” Pop Tarts kids cartoon, books on traveling and adventure, dreams, funny, sleeplessness, raining and thundering.

An original cartoon.  Check out his adventures in his book travels in the Store.

Easter Eggs (Did You Notice?):
  • Succulent’s napkin blanket says “Siesta Burger”.  Siesta in spanish means ‘sleep’
  • The Quak Tart’s first appearance in Dilbert’s dream looks remarkably like the monolith in “2001: Space Odyssey” (1968). 
  • It also uses the same classic music “Thus Spake Zarathustra”.
  • First dream sequence of Dilbert the Duck
  • The blanket Dilbert uses is his map featured in the books.
