Tele-Trauma is the third part of the fifth episode of the third season in Dexter's Laboratory that aired on February 22, 2002. In this episode, Dexter invents a helmet that will prevent him from missing his shows. However, he later has television-based outbursts.
The episode name is a portmanteau of the words "television" and "trauma."
Plot
Dexter keeps on missing his favorite shows because of his studying, so he invents a helmet that will help him with that. However, problems arise when Dexter starts quoting off lines from his favorite TV shows.
Characters
Quotes
- Mr. Luzinsky: Hmm... odd?
- Mr. Luzinsky: Dexter, stop that immediately.
- Mr. Luzinsky: That's enough! I declare Herman the winner and Dexter go the principal's office.
- Principal: Well, Dexter, your behavior in that anotarium was totally appalling, outrageous, shocking and horrifying. So just what on earth have you got to say for yourself young man?
- Dexter: Well, sir. You see... All I can say is... This concludes our broadcast day, good night.
Trivia
Cultural References
- There was a reference to The Powerpuff Girls in this episode. One of the quotes Dexter got from the TV was "Townsville's in trouble!"
- There was a Seinfeld reference in this episode. When Phillips Luzinsky came up to Dexter, Dexter said "Newman".
- Dexter references Wheel of Fortune when he says "I think I'm ready to buy a vowel, now."
Production Notes
- Although this episode along with "If Memory Serves" and "A Mandark Cartoon" aired on February 22, 2002, it was actually made in 2001 according to the credits.
- This segment was the last to feature Christine Cavanaugh as the voice of Dexter; she retired from voice acting soon after, only to pass away from an undocumented illness in 2014. Her replacement for the rest of the series, Candi Milo, had already voiced Dexter in the previously-aired segments, "Poppa Wheely", "The Mock Side of the Moon", and "If Memory Serves". This most likely means that "Tele-Trauma" was produced before these other segments were, despite airing afterwards.
