Wish List

Synopsis

An angry Elmer Fudd berates safari guide Daffy since they haven't seen any game all day. The duck points out Bugs' rabbit hole just in time to avoid questions about a refund. To Daffy's and Elmer's surprise, Bugs emerges dressed as a fairy complete with robe, wings, and wand. Bugs claims to be Elmer's fairy godmother, and Elmer is so taken by the idea that he can't see past the disguise even with Daffy pointing it out. Bugs even has explanations for the hole and his tail.

The duck suggests the granting of three wish as proof of Bugs being a fairy godmother, and Bugs agrees to this. Elmer's first wish is granted instantly since he all he wants is a cold drink. The duck counsels Elmer before a second wish can happen. This time Fudd asks for a million bucks. Bugs obliges and sounds a horn. A moment later a large number of deer, all with antlers, trample Daffy.

Daffy takes Elmer aside and coaches him again. The third wish seems to be a problem. Elmer wish to finally shoot a rabbit. Bugs launches into a strange series of moves ending with the wand touching Fudd's gun. The gun, Bugs claims, now has a magic touch and can't miss a rabbit. Daffy is quick to point out that they need a rabbit to try it. Fairy Bugs solves that with a touch of the wand. Daffy suddenly has a pair of rabbit ears which don't come off, despite his efforts. Elmer chases after Daffy Rabbit, as Bugs, who is holding a can of glue, asides that it's amazing what is being done with fairy dust today.

The Mouse Was A Louse

Credits

Synopsis

Porky chases after a mouse which is running off with a drumstick. There's a snap and the mouse is on a trap. Claiming it's his first offense, the mouse begs to be let go. Porky points out that he's been stealing food every day, but decides to be nice and let the mouse go. The pig finds that the mouse wasn't even caught in the trap, but just sitting on it. Yelling "Sucker!" the mouse hits him over the head with the drumstick.

Porky reaches into a hole in the wall to try to grab the mouse. Instead of the mouse, he grabs a stuffed mouse as the real one makes noises. The real mouse also cut the head off of the stuffed version, leaving to Porky to think he has decapitated the rodent. Reappearing on a windowsill, the mouse again calls the pig a sucker. When Porky rushes at him, he threatens to jump. The mouse does jump, but only on to a vine, where he calls Porky a sucker again as he slams the window closed on the pig.

The mouse, now wearing a police uniform, shows up at door and asks what all the noise is about. Porky says that he's been bothered by a pest he can't remove. The policeman-impersonating mouse tells the big to wait outside while he checks on things. When Porky wonders what's taking so long, the mouse yells out the mail slot to call him a sucker again. Porky tries to get away but as he walks along people keep offering him suckers, or talking about suckers as he walks by. Porky cracks and is taken away by men in white coats while the mouse brags he's gotten rid of many homeowners that way.

Seeing Stars

Credits

Synopsis

While being chased after by Wile E. Coyote, Road Runner suddenly stops and the coyote crashes into him and falls over, stunned. The bird zips off again and the coyote gives chase, only to realize he's in mid-air. Just before he falls, a billboard for a movie gives him an idea.

The coyote sets himself up as an agent and signs Road Runner up. Wile E. also is the director, and the first scene calls for Road Runner to kiss another bird, which happens to be a bomb. Annoyed that Road Runner hasn't done the kiss right and set off the charge, Wile E. makes the mistake of demonstrating. The coyote tries again with camera that is a cannon, but the trick turns on him. Another try has the coyote rig a set of railroad tracks with a female road runner doll and a weight as a trap. Road Runner does a fast rescue and the trap improbably falls on Wile E.

Wile E. follows Road Runner into a cave for the supposed premiere showing of his movie. A crowd of enthusiastic fans carries Road Runner over them, and leaves a trampled Wile E. behind. As he gets up, the coyote is pleased to be in the spotlight, at least until he find that the light is from a truck driven by Road Runner.
