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. An initially unseen creature - it is soon clear it is Bugs Bunny - pokes its eyes into the empty sockets of a bison skull. As Elmer passes, Bugs greets him; Elmer merely tips his hat in response and continues his trek. Bugs then falls into step with him, harmonizing on "Oh! Susanna". After 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 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. 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.
