Big House Bunny

 I. Freleng, Big House Bunny, USA, 1950


Second short of 1950 with Yosemite Sam, albeit this time he's Captain Sam Schultz. Not a ship captain this time; no, this time he's the meanest hombre that ever did a bed check. 


Bugs, on the run from some hunters, decides to seek sanctuary in the safest place he find; Namely Sing Song Prison and Sam is the number one guard. Sam mistakes Bugs for an inmate and decides to bring the hammer down (never mind that Bugs actually is guilty of trespassing, but never mind)


From there Sam learns that he isn't locked in with Bugs, Bugs is locked in with him. Good, with a perfect slowburn by Sam and his eventual fall all the sweeter.
