Any cartoon character who is not the "star," who sets a trap, will fall afoul of said trap, and likely be literally hoist on his own petard . . .
General Cartoon Laws:
1. The bigger they are, the stupider they are
2. Cartoons cannot die
3. Anger or spices create severe heat in the cranium that must be released through the ears
4. Any hard impact will cause instant flattening

Star Trek rule. Never be the only person wearing a red shirt.
Kirk, Spock, McCoy and some phaser-fodder in a red shirt beam down to a planet. That guy in the red shirt is gonna get fried, zapped, eaten or crushed by styrofoam boulders...
'Nuther ST rule: The drama is reaching its climax at such time as Bones feels obliged to remind his commander: "Damn it, Jim, I'm a doctor, not a miracle worker!"
Cheesy sci-fi movie rule: at climactic events, the main characters must stare meaningfully at some object.
cartoon rule: Anything falls faster than an anvil. Once a cartoon character falls past an anvil, said anvil will shift position so as to be directly above the falling character.
Cartoon mice plans to take over the world will always succeed, only to be foiled later on.
