Samurai Jack 2.11

XXIV: Jack Is Naked

- Jack bathes after getting muddy battling a swamp creature; his sword and clothes are stolen by a white rabbit; naked, he chases the rabbit but falls down a hole
- Jack unknowingly assumes the identity of a burglar after taking the man's clothes which leads to further complications when he is spotted by an angry mob who mistake him for the burglar; after another change of clothing Jack winds up on stage looking very much like Alice from Alice in Wonderland; later he winds up on a train after spotting the white rabbit boarding the train
- this is a wonderfully wacky episode; there are lots of little moments in  it that I like and I love the overall sense of whimsy; loved the desperation on Jack's face when he tries to control the flying train using the track ball
- Aku, or something that looks like Aku, make a brief appearance but other than that this episode has little to nothing to do with the central of the series; there is no magic portal that Jack is questing for; it is all about tracking down the white rabbit and getting back his sword and his clothes
