Synopsis
Wile E. Coyote chases the Road Runner, a bird so fast that the highway curls up, bridges bunch up and cactus follows him flying. The coyote tries roller skates on skis (which work fine until he crashes into a mountainside); a giant bow, from which he tries to launch himself as an arrow; and dynamite sticks attached to several exploding darts, which he lets loose en masse from a hot air balloon- the only problem being that one dart pops his balloon, while another rips his parachute. Wile E. tries to hit the Road Runner with a jackhammer and shoot him with a rifle, but the darts show up and ruin everything. A boomerang and an anvil are also used, to no avail. The coyote falls off a cliff, with two darts landing near his head, which opens up to say, "The End."

Production notes
Fastius Tasty-Us Vs Apetitis Giganticus.
The opening music is reused from "Zip 'n Snort."
The only cartoon in which the joke is not always on Wile E. Coyote. At the end, after he thinks two sticks of dynamite were going to explode on him, they open up and say "The End" and he laughs at the camera.
