He had been watching the cartoon closely and realized that the humorous material was meant for adults as well as children.

He had been surprised when he realized that the script had been written on at least two levels, perhaps three. At the bottom-most level there were the sight gags for children and lesser mentalities. On the next level up, the jokes had been written for the troops of the time.
