Dialogue
[edit]- Bugs Bunny: [as Daffy levels his rifle at Bugs] Er, uh, do I understand that you bear some sort of antipathy toward me?
- Daffy Duck: Antipathy, nothin'! I'm after that fur coat! [feels Bugs' fur] Say, that's the softest pelt I've ever felt!
- Bugs Bunny: Do you really like it? I get all my suits from the same tailor as the Duke of Windsor. I always get a good fit from him.
- Daffy Duck: [levels his gun at Bugs again] Never mind the sales pitch! Just skin the rabbit!
- Bugs Bunny: [pushing Daffy's gun away from him] Eh, give me a sporting chance, doc.
- Daffy Duck: [angry] Stop fiddling with my rifle! I want to shoot you where it won't show! [Bugs kisses him, plugs a carrot into his rifle, and runs off. He attempts to shoot, but the carrot blocks it; attempting to pull the carrot out] Dirtylittlecraddlefrajun... [the gun goes off as soon as he pulls the carrot out] [enraged and sarcastically] Ooh, I LOVE him!
- [last lines]
- Bugs Bunny: Well, I guess it's time to turn in for a long Winter's nap. [calls to a tree where some bears are sleeping] Ah, goodnight Daffy! Pleasant dreams!
- Daffy Duck: [holding onto the top of the tree, shivering] Pleasant dreams, yeah. Dirtylittlecraddlefrajun...
