Episode Title:
Long-Haired Hare.Episode Description:
On a hillside, Bugs is singing "A Rainy Night in Rio", accompanying himself on a banjo. In a nearby house, a burly, blond-haired opera singer named Giovanni Jones rehearses "Largo al Factotum" from The Barber of Seville. Overhearing Bugs, he absent-mindedly begins singing along in operatic style. Realizing his mistake, Giovanni loses his temper over his rehearsal being interrupted in this manner. He reacts by going to Bugs on the hill and grabbing the banjo from him, popping the strings, then splitting it in two. He crushes the neck into the banjo body, turns it over to dump out the neck pieces then slams it over Bugs' head. ("Music-hater," Bugs opines.) As Giovanni practices again, he overhears Bugs singing a variation on "My Gal is a High-Born Lady" on a harp. He tries to ignore Bugs, but he ends up both singing along in operatic style and dancing along. Becoming furious again, he retaliates by going to Bugs and resting his arm on the harp's center pole as he glares at Bugs and breathes heavily. When Bugs notices and asks what the problem is with his famous question: "Eh, what's up doc?" Giovanni sticks Bugs' neck between the harp's strings and then treats it like an accordion, pulling its bottom part close to the ground and its base, then pushing the bottom part back to crush the instrument with Bugs trapped in it. ("Hmm, also a rabbit-hater — oh, well," Bugs counters.)...
