The Dipped Toon Shoe was a shoe who appeared in Who Framed Roger Rabbit. It was voiced by Nancy Cartwright.
Role in film[]
Innocent, mischievous, and playful by nature, the single Toon Shoe is first seen squeaking and rubbing against Judge Doom's leg like a lost puppy, unaware of his evil nature. It tries to playfully run off as Doom puts on a glove and reaches down to catch it as he gives his monologue about Toons respecting the law and such. When he catches the shoe, it starts comically squeaking and frantically struggling around, playfully trying to get away, still unaware of its upcoming fate. It would be the first toon killed onscreen as a demonstration of The Dip (Turpentine, Acetone, Benzine). When the shoe finally notices the Dip, it looks around bewildered then, realizing the situation, starts shaking and whimpering pleadingly, before squeaking in agony as it gets dissolved in front of a very appalled Eddie Valiant and Lt. Santino, who look away in horror. Afterwards, all that is left is a liquid mass of red gunk in chemicals when Doom withdraws his hand, sealing the poor shoe's fate.
Trivia[]
- Despite Eddie Valiant's past hatred towards toons since his brother was murder by one, The Shoe was the only toon Eddie felt sorry to see him get dip in front of him because he knows when not to let someone get executed when they are innocent, while he was begging him to save him from Doom at his mercy until it was too late since Eddie did nothing to prevent this because Doom was a Judge since he has the authority to do whatever he wants. But later at the end The Toon Shoe was avenged when Eddie turns Doom's own weapon on him in the exact same factory.
- It possible The Toon Shoe knew Doom is a toon and the murderer who killed Marvin Acme and not Roger Rabbit since he did live in the Acme Factory as eyewitness and tries to warn Eddie while begging to be saved until he was dipped only because he was unable to speak due to having a squeaky voice while Doom only executed him not as a test subject to demonstrate his creation ,but rather realized he knows too much that will jeopardized his scheme.
