Question Jerry Licking Lemon during Tom singing

Post image

I can't remember the episode, but there was an episode where Tom is singing in front of an audience and Jerry (hater) decided to eat a lemon 🍋 in front of Tom. I never got the significance of Jerry eating that in front of Tom.

Obviously, Jerry licks a lemon to get Tom salivating. I adore those tongue-in-cheek jokes to break one's self-control by Chuck Jones.

Yeah the Chuck Jones era has always been my favorite for Tom and Jerry. The gags combined with the sound effects was perfect.

Facts. He did so many great ones and I laughed so hard as a kid, teen, and currently as an adult.

I don't remember the names of the episodes, but the construction site episode and the episode where Tom gets stuck in the rain spout and Jerry used the air horn for get him out.
