Synopsis

Bugs uses a slingshot to gain the advantage over Elmer in a footrace.

Bugs accidently sniffs Elmer?s experimental drag-racing fuel, and takes a wild ride on Fudd?s ?dwagster?.

Bugs is confounded by one strange sight after another, culminating with a ?turtle-with-wheels? challenging him to a race.

Sylvester accidently lands in a bathtub full of water - and likes it.

Daffy sells Elmer a large ceramic ?Magic Jar?, guaranteed to contain a genie.

Elmer gets away from it all by taking a cruise on a tramp steamer. Unfortunately for him, Bugs is the captain ? and the entire crew!
