Bugs Bunny, intending to go to Perth Amboy but getting lost, is ordered to entertain the Sultan. Bugs recounts his adventures, including outsmarting a bull, a monster named Rudolph, and Yosemite Sam. It is later revealed that the Sultan is actually Yosemite Sam himself. Bugs tricks Sam into falling into the crocodile pit and escapes, mocking Sam's misfortune.
