Episode Segments
Real Kids Don't Eat Broccoli
The segment begins with Buster narrating about Acme Acres, in the Year 2038, where the city is covered in smog. One night while relaxing in his office with his assistant, Hamdroid (a robot version of Hamton) there is a knock at the door. Buster tells Hamdroid to open the door. As Hamdroid walks up to the door, he tries to open it, but after a few failed attempts, the door is finally opened, with the person on the inside opening it, who slams the door into Hamdroid's broken pieces. The person who enters the room is non other then Miss Bunny (played by Babs), a hot-pink bunny who comes saying she's looking for Buster Bunny, the Gum-shoot (which he replies to while getting a piece of gum out of his sole), and as he tells her he found him, he asks her to make herself at home, in which she turns a small part of his office into what seems to be a part of her home. After calling him a bunch of names for a detective (a shamus, a slout, a P.I. and a peeper, and he replies calling her a thesaurus), she comes to hire Buster to find her missing droids, to which he says he'll take the case, by which he means he'll take a case of carrots she has early, and then accepts the job. Just as he is about to go on the case, he tells Hamdroid to put himself back together and get the door for the lady, to which Hamdroid puts himself back together in the wrong places, then takes the door out and gives it to her.
In the next scene, we see Buster driving his hovercar as he narrates that not just Miss Bunny's, but all the droids in town are gone, and decides to head to the Acme Hologram Arcade, a place surrounded by a pack of losers, a guy with a hanging curveball, where he meets Plucky (with a mohawk), who was known as a stool pigeon who would sell information for money. We then see Plucky reaching down, trying to get a quarter that rolled under a game. Just as he is about to get it, Buster appears asking about the whereabouts of the droids. As Buster is seen tossing a coin up and down, Plucky tells him he'll tell him the information for the price of one game, to which Buster agrees and places the coin into the slot. Just before the game begins, Buster asks Plucky who the mastermind of the missing droids is, to which Plucky doesn't know who he is, but does say where the droids are; Club LaAcme. After giving out the information, Plucky begins to play his boxing game, where he goes against a large muscular robot and gets knock out. Just as Buster is about to leave to the club, he gives Plucky a free game on him, where an even larger muscular red robot comes, and Plucky runs away, saying he'll never play video games again.
In the next scene, Buster is now seen driving to the Club LaAcme, a club where the Acme elite used to meet, but now it's just a place where punks and junkies meet and he adds that the bodyguards are pushovers (in which case, he literally pushes them over).

After the dance, Fifi kisses Buster, which causes him to dance all silly-like, and then someone drops his car on him, knocking him out, and Buster dreams of a happy place of anthropomorphic Rabbits/Satyrs and Rabbits/Centaurs.
Later, Buster wakes up to see Miss Bunny (as he describe her as an angel) and the other toons as they surround him, while they are all eating broccoli and wearing colorful clothing. When Buster asks what happen, Miss Bunny explains that all of the droids have returned home and the case is over. Just then, Buster notices that something is strange about the toons.

Boo Ha Ha
Hamton and Plucky go to a country inn, or a mansion. They see ghosts everywhere. The manager of the hotel takes Hamton and Plucky to the presidential suite, and they are lucky. They get ready for bed, and they open the bathroom door and it happens to be similar to Hades. Hamton now realizes that it is just a regular bathroom. He brushes his teeth with toothpaste and it starts resembling a ghost. He washes his mouth out with Blisterine (a parody of Listerine). They go to bed, and Hamton feels scared because his pillow is starting to be a ghost. Both Hamton and Plucky are sent home, but not to their house. They are sent to the ghost manager's house, where it resembles Hades.
Duck Dodgers Jr.
An episode segment similar to Duck Dodgers. Plucky and Daffy are fighting with Marvin the Martian, and his niece Marcia the Martian. Marvin and Marsha are trying to take the world and they argue.
