Episode 26: Rocky & Bullwinkle - Jet Fuel (11) - A Creep in the Deep or Will Success Spoil Boris Badenov?
Boris has plenty of medals—for burning down orphanages, for kicking small dogs, for taking candy from babies—so why isn't he happier? He's forgotten something, he's certain, but can't remember what it is until he gets his orders: KILL MOOSE! So, of course, he and Natasha put the sub on autopilot, slip into breathing apparatus, and swim straight back to the U. S. of A. Meanwhile, our heroes are finding it tough to get to Frostbite Falls, so they head off to the nearest airfield to rent a cut-rate private plane, where they immediately find Ace Ricken-Boris, whose motto is *Fly Now, Pray Later.* Rocky wants to do some square business, but all Ace Ricken-Boris is offering are round trips for eighty-five cents per, which just happens to be all the money Rocky and Bullwinkle have. Is Ace really wild about flying them to Frostbite Falls, dollink, or is that vaguely familiar, vampy stewardess strapping our heroes into a flying casket?

The auto-controlled spy sub goes slightly out of control, blowing up an entire foreign port.
Meanwhile, after fastening Rocky and Bullwinkle into one-way seatbelts, stewardess Natasha bails out, while Boris gleefully smashes instruments in the pilot's compartment. It looks like a smash landing ahead.
Episode 25: Rocky & Bullwinkle - Jet Fuel (10) - Hello Out There! or There's No Place Like Space
Up and up they go, and then down and down: Cloyd and Gidney are out of fuel, or is that fudge cake? Because Boris and Natasha have absconded with their last fuel tank, the moon men have no choice but to tell Rocky the recipe, and they're just one ingredient short: mooseberry juice, which grows in only one place in the entire nation, and that hard-to-find spot just happens to be Rocky and Bullwinkle's hometown, *Frostbite Falls, Minnesota* (population twenty-three).
Meanwhile, Boris and Natasha, those two creeps in the deep, board a midget submarine.
Episode 31: Rocky & Bullwinkle - Jet Fuel (13) - The Back Seat Divers or Mashed Landing
A last-second reconsideration of orders from headquarters (the message didn't say KILL MOOSE; it actually read DON'T KILL MOOSE) means Boris has to save Rocky and Bullwinkle, whose brilliant idea to retrieve the last mooseberry bush on Mooseberry Island (SWIM THE RIVER!) has one tiny flaw (Bullwinkle doesn't know how to swim!).
Episode 24: Peabody's Improbable History - King Arthur

Episode 33: Bullwinkle's Corner - Taffy
Bullwinkle recites the poem "Taffy." However, in the telling of the story, Boris (in the role of Taffy) begins to "bend and ad-lib" his parts. For example, instead of stealing "a piece of beef," Taffy steals a whole cow. Bullwinkle gets upset as the poem is changed, and he thinks that he's got Boris with the last line of the poem. ("I went to Taffy's house, Taffy was in bed. I took a marrow bone and hit him on the head.") However, upon arriving, Boris takes the marrow bone and hits Bullwinkle in the head, giving the story an unhappy ending, much to Boris' delight.
