Synopsis

The Road Runner makes a sharp left turn, sending Wile E. Coyote sliding into the desert and off a cliff. The following nine attempts fail to catch the speedy bird: 1) Wile E. tries to trip the Road Runner with a false foot, which the Road Runner causes to spin out of control; 2) a dynamite stick on a lasso; 3) the coyote attempts his chase on roller skates, using a wind sail strapped to his back, propelled by an electric fan; 4) a large skyrocket (which blasts off with him); 5) using a lever to propel himself only causes a large boulder to smash the coyote; 6) dropping an anvil from a helium balloon, which smashes through a bridge, bounces upward on electric wires, and destroys the ledge that Wile E. is on; 7) a giant coil spring; 8) "Dehydrated Boulders," which crush the coyote; and 9) a "Junior Size Outboard Steam Roller," which chases the Road Runner to a detour into an "escape tunnel" (a disguised cannon which doesn't explode until Wile E. Coyote looks into it). The film ends as the Road Runner waves goodbye to the blasted coyote, who gets run over by the out-of control steamroller (he holds up a sign: "This is The End").
