What I liked about this scene was that even when he was drowning he still got the job he was told to do done. It's a blink if you miss moment, but essentially he was tasked to unclog the water jets in that hot tub. When he got thrown in, in a desperate attempt to reach for the edge he gets the jet unclogged. There was clothes stuck to it.
I think you're all missing the point of why Howard the Duck couldn't swim, it's explained both in the comic and this film that once ducks evolve from regular to anthropomorphic in their species, ducks lose their natural abilities to fly and swim. Since Howard is anthropomorphic, he lost these natural abilities, so if he wants to swim, he's got to learn how to swim like humans do.

@@jedijones Ask the script writers. This scene is probably one of the reasons why this film won Worst Picture and Worst Screenplay at the 1987 Raspberry Awards.
@@jedijones Not only that, but how did Howard even get the job? You need a social security number to qualify for employment, and he obviously wouldn't have one. He is the definition of "illegal alien".
Howard is a duck who can't fly or even swims. Some species of ducks can't fly at all likes the Peking duck, but so far there's no such species of duck that can't swim. A duck is known to be a waterfowl.
Man, the boss is an asshole. Good thing Howard serves him right :) Sidenote: What the heck is that mess tub supposed to be? It looks like it's made out of slime.
To bad there were no surveillance cameras Howard could've filed a complaint to the Spa's corporate about his boss throwing him in the pool and forcing him to work on his break.He could've had his boss fired easily with the footage.
"Hmmm..... must be mating season" 🤣
This movie was wonderfully goofy, dark, inventive, creative and odd...and it remains my favorite strange film of ALL time.
This film overall is just really awesome.
"Guess I slipped". 2:55

"Guess I Slipped! Just Came By To Tell Ya, I QUIT!"
"creepy little dude" 😄😄😄😄😄😄dead
Ilkvomit Right .. like as if he creepy !! Lol 😂
Yup 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Hahah when your almost 40 and feel like Howard 😂😂 I guess we are in mating season.. don’t mind me🤣🤣🤣🤣
My cousin and watched this movie over a hundred times when we were in middle school🤣
Me too hahahaha! I was in live with Howard! He seemed more relatable than most human boys at time haha
I watched this numerous times as a kid too, I have the DVD I can watch it some more
that lady at the beginning of this video reminds me a lot of Mammy Two-Shoes from Tom and Jerry.
My parents should not have shown me this when I was 3
"Just came by to tell you... I QUIT!! Hmph!"

wow i never noticed that before thank you lol. this movie is tops
I bet when Howard is working he was thinking of taking Beverly there 😂😍
That’s what I thinking like when he saw people having love he could’ve been jealously without Beverly not there since they fought.
0:18 Uncle Phil's mother on "Fresh Prince Of Bel Air".
Holy yeah
I love howard
Me too
I watched this film a lot as a kid and literally didn’t realize any of the shit they were talking about until rewatching it a week ago
2:35 whoa, what was that?!
Oh it's just some small, fully clothed, amperformorphic life form swimming in our hot tub...
Oh well (goes back to kissing)
Nostalgia Critic 😂
EPIC movie
Howard is the BEST!
That woman was in fresh Prince of Bel Air uncle Phil's Mom. She reminds me of one of my school teacher in second and third grade
What kind of duck can’t swim?! 😂😂
There are some species of ducks can't fly likes the Peking duck, but I don't know any species that can't swim. A duck is known to be a waterfowl.
Even here in Hawaii, there was native species of duck that was ABOUT THE SIZE of Howard the Duck! Give or take a couple inches!

@@retrofan4963 it was a joke, dude😂
Howard sure had the Right to get Him back after he threw him in that Pool
Ok one that was a *HOT TUB* and second of all I *AGREE*
Because Howard can't swims and he's a duck.

I loved this part of the movie as a kid.

@@jrcasselman Why is the government setting people up with jobs in illegal brothels?

He's a funky little feather-bearing waterfowl.
We need more Corramea's and send all the tax deadbeats to them.
Shit, they all gone 😢

It's Howard thank you and I'm taking a break
Oh! Pardon me your Lowness! But, we seem to have a plugged up Air jet! In #5! 😀
