Transcription
Plot
In the confines of Bedlam Manor, Yosemite Sam, Duke of Yosemite, discovers his dire financial situation, attributed to his uncle, the King, discontinuing his allowance due to frequent displays of anger. In a twist of fate, Bugs Bunny arrives at Sam's doorstep, offering a substantial sum of £1 million under a peculiar condition: Sam must maintain composure continuously to retain the entirety of the gift. Any lapse in temper results in a deduction, the severity determined by Bugs.
Bugs assumes the role of an irritating guest, testing Sam's patience through various antics. Despite initial tolerance, Sam succumbs to frustration, incurring deductions. His attempts to alleviate stress only exacerbate the situation, prompting him to seek solace outdoors. The provocation persists, with Bugs disrupting Sam's rest with raucous piano playing and relentless demands.
In a bid to rid himself of Bugs, Sam devises a scheme, inadvertently falling victim to his own trap. Despite repeated setbacks, Sam ultimately demonstrates restraint, subjecting himself to further indignities to prove his newfound temperance. Bugs, amused by Sam's efforts, reveals the fictitious nature of the promised reward, leaving Sam to confront his folly.
