Fat Elmer would wear a girdle with his underwear again in ' Fresh Hare'.Much like ' Wabbit Twouble' directed by Bob Clampett the previous year, this cartoon features Bugs as the aggressor provoking Elmer for no apparent reason.A short clip from the cartoon can be seen in the opening credits of the Futurama episode ' Love's Labour Lost in Space'.DVD - Looney Tunes Golden Collection: Volume 5, Disc 3Īdditionally, since the cartoon has fallen into the public domain, it can be found on various unauthorized VHS tapes and DVDs in varying quality.Laserdisc - The Golden Age of Looney Tunes, Vol.VHS - Cartoon Moviestars: Elmer!, and Hollywood Cartoon Superstars - Volume 4.Elmer remains oblivious, however, as the camera irises out with a glimmer.

When he smiles, it is clear the tooth is his own and it is also clear Bugs' tooth is still intact. After a skirmish, Elmer emerges with a gold tooth in hand. He is determined to get the gold he came for and now targets Bug's tooth. Bugs ambles off but meets up with Elmer, who has dug himself out and is now livid. 'Too bad,' Bugs says and proceeds to unapologetically bury Elmer ('Ain't I a stinker?'). Elmer breaks the fourth wall and says to the audience watching the scene, 'Don't waugh! I'll bet pwenty of you men would wear one of these!' After pulling his clothes back on he declares, 'That's the wast stwaw.' He dives into the hole as Bugs pops out of the ground beside it.īugs calls down asking Elmer where he is we see Elmer's eyes, looking distressed, as he indicates he is at the bottom of the hole. Bugs wolf-whistles at Elmer's attire and ducks back into the hole. Using scissors, Bugs cuts off Elmer's shirt and suspenders, revealing his yellow and red polka-dotted boxers and a girdle. When Bugs pops up, he sees the failed tactic. Elmer does not realize this has occurred as he tries desperately to swing it down on Bugs. But when he swings it over his shoulder, it gets stuck in the wall behind him. He prepares to 'greet' Bugs with the pick axe. Bugs makes like a swimmer as he enters a hole Elmer adopts a sweet tone, trying to coax the rabbit out. Elmer naïvely dismisses the amount as inconsequential, as he also has a gold filling, then begins to lose his temper. Bugs intercepts him and begins excitedly declaring that gold has been discovered, then reveals it is a gold filling in one of his teeth. The dynamite fizzles out harmlessly, but Bugs shrieks 'BAM!' places a roasting pan lid on Elmer's head and bashes it with a ladle, then runs away.Įlmer grabs his rifle and gives chase. He cowers against the cactus and Bugs stands with a finger in one ear. Bugs approaches from behind Elmer, taps him on the rear, reveals he is holding the dynamite, and asks, 'Did you lose this?' Elmer reaches for the stick then recoils, realizing what it is. He then runs off and shelters behind a cactus, awaiting the expected blast. Bugs immediately throws it back out, then the two engage in a 'toss it in/throw it out' battle until Elmer uses a zipper to close the hole. With a pick axe, Elmer digs a hole and drops in a lit stick of dynamite. After running off in fear (with the paint inside his outline somehow coming out as he dashes off), he returns and says, 'That's that scwewy wabbit.' He shrugs this off and continues his search for gold. As Elmer is checking out the hole and pondering the strangeness of the situation, Bugs - once again wearing the skull - walks up behind him and utters, 'What's up, Doc?' Elmer starts to explain what is bothering him but is suddenly scared by the proximity of the skull. Bugs then falls into step with him, harmonizing on 'Oh! Susanna'.Īfter a big finish to the song, Bugs does a flourish and disappears into a hole in the ground, leaving Elmer stunned that only the skull remains. As Elmer passes, Bugs greets him Elmer merely tips his hat in response and continues his trek. An initially unseen creature - it is soon clear it is Bugs Bunny - pokes its eyes into the empty sockets of a bison skull.

Singing a modified version of ' Oh! Susanna,' Elmer Fudd trudges into the desert looking for gold to support the World War II Allied victory effort. It stars Bugs Bunny (Voice by Mel Blanc) and Elmer Fudd (voiced by Arthur Quirk Bryan). The Wacky Wabbit is a 1942 Merrie Melodies cartoon directed by Bob Clampett.
