Mom and Jerry (Dexter's Laboratory)

"Mom and Jerry" is the first part of the second episode in the second season of Dexter's Laboratory.

Plot
In a parody of Tom and Jerry, Dexter accidentally swaps his brain with a mouse's and must avoid his mother when she attacks him.

Why It Deserves Any Kind of Cheese

 * 1) The plot is very interesting, as it has Dexter accidentally swapping minds with a mouse's when Dee Dee distracts Monkey, and must avoid his mother.
 * 2) Dexter's mom managing to hold all those plates and dishes with only two hands is very impressive, along with mouse Dexter pretending to be a Russian doll.
 * 3) The chase between the mouse in Dexter's mind and his mother is great and top-notch to watch, and pays homage to the classic Tom & Jerry Cartoons by Hanna-Barbera/MGM, but with a mother instead of a cat.
 * 4) Even when Dexter is a mouse here, he still could access his laboratory by using his Major Glory catapult & pressing the red button on one of his books, and he also managed to get rid of his mother by launching a security code.
 * 5) Funny Ending: Although we never get to see Dexter and the mouse swap minds again, Dee Dee finds a cat thinking it's a "mouse" and so, it & Dee Dee start chasing both Dexter and the mouse - which pays full homage of Tom & Jerry.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) At the end when Dee Dee showed Dexter that she could catch the mouse, the pet she was holding was an orange cat, but we did get to see a cool chase parody as mentioned above.
 * 2) Although the ending wasn't too bad, we never get to see Dexter and the mouse swap minds to their normal bodies.

Reception

 * It holds a rating of 7/10 on IMDB.
