"The Mask", an episode from the animated series "Courage the Cowardly Dog", departs from the show's default horror-comedy blend, in favor of a more serious tone exploring themes such as oppression, abuse, friendship, and liberation. The character Bunny represents an oppressed individual who is caught in an abusive relationship with Mad Dog, a representation of an abusive, controlling figure. The act of forcefully being put into a flowerpot symbolizes confinement, limitation, and repression. It's a vivid metaphor for her limited freedom and choice. The flowerpot confines Bunny much like Mad Dog's abusive control restricts her movements and prevents her from reaching for her desires and freedom. The overall underlining theme in this episode is usually seen as a criticism of unhealthy, oppressive relations and a hopeful message for liberation and empowerment. The friendship and mutual aid between Bunny and Kitty (another main character in the episode) highlight the importance of solidarity and cooperation in the face of ordeals.
