The film opens with footage from "Hare Lift" (1952) redubbed and restored. Bugs Bunny is inside a plane which bank robber Yosemite Sam hijacks as a getaway vehicle. The plane is going to crash, and Sam bails out, but his parachute doesn't work. Sam dies and is sent to Hell. The Devil gives him three chances to get Bugs down to the other place to take Sam's place. Then the Devil will send Sam back to earth to stay and continue his life of crime. After Yosemite Sam fails three times, he tells the Devil to "go get him yourself!"

Devil's Feud Cake

StormwindMay 24, 2002

This cartoon isn't one of the better ones. It's got footage stolen from both Roman Legion-Hare, and Sahara Hare, two previous Bugs/Yosemite Cartoons. It's also pretty easy to tell which the borrowed, and which the original footage is. Freleng usually does better work, and this one is a real disappointment.
