Despite his voice being heard throughout, Mickey Mouse himself does not physically appear onscreen, nor is he mentioned by name. He is only being heard from inside the carrier or from offscreen, though his silhouette is seen near the beginning.
In the Italian and Russian dubs of the episode, however, Mickey (known as "Topolino" in Italy) is mentioned by name by some of the characters in the episode, with his name even being used is in the Italian title.
The title may be a pun on the title of the 1934 song "I Oughta Be In Pictures"
Fall-Apart Rabbit had not appeared in this episode.
