In the first scene, Bugs and Casbah both rise up from their holes (on platforms) with flowers they each intend to give to Daisy Lou. Bugs notices Casbah’s bunch is bigger than his.
The rest of the scene contains fine expressions as the two rabbits go back into their holes to emerge with larger gifts, ending with the annoyed Bugs bringing up an anvil to drop on Casbah's head.
Bugs then spends a good deal of the cartoon pretending to be Daisy Lou to give the woiks to the dopey Casbah.
Bugs is on Daisy Lou's porch. He sees something.
There's a cut to Daisy Lou coming up the sidewalk. Bugs looks around then runs out of the scene.
Of course, Casbah thinks Daisy Lou is Bugs and she takes care of things (off-camera).
Virgil Ross, Gerry Chiniquy, Ken Champin and Manny Perez animated the cartoon, released in September 1948. This is the first Freleng cartoon with a solo story credit to Tedd Pierce after Mike Maltese moved to the Chuck Jones unit.
The music under the opening credits is Don’t Take Your Love From Me by Henry Nemo in a tempo a lot quicker than what you’d normally hear it sung in.
Incredible. How do people think to do that?
