Plot
In a desert during World War II, Elmer Fudd seeks gold for the Allied victory effort. He encounters Bugs Bunny, who plays pranks on him, including a dynamite exchange and a fake gold discovery. Elmer, oblivious to Bugs' antics, tries to retaliate but ends up buried by Bugs. Determined, Elmer retrieves what he believes is gold from Bugs' tooth by beginning to beat him up first, only to find it's his own. Unaware, he smiles triumphantly with a glimmer, hinting at his continued cluelessness.
