Countdown To Hunting Season[]
(The sketch begins with a view of Hamton playing the piano next to a clock about to reach the top. Above the clock is a banner that says, COUNTDOWN TO HUNTING SEASON. Plucky, dressed in a lavender tuxedo and a brown hairdo, walks past several silhouettes. As he walks onstage and picks up the microphone, the camera cuts to a view of him, focusing on him as he walks across the stage)
Plucky: "Good evening, ladies and germs, cats and kitties, senors and ritas! I'm Plucky Finelli, and welcome to Countdown to Hunting Season, here at Moose Liver Lodge! And hey, we got a couple of seconds left on the old tick-tock until..." (singing) "A hunting we will go," (Speaking as the camera zooms in on him) "Thank you! Thank you, thank you!" (Singing) "A hunting we will go," (Speaking as he moves in closer to the camera) "Jack! Ha ha!" (Singing as he backs up) "Dooby-dooby-dooby-whaa, a hunting we will go!"
(The camera cuts to a zoomed-out view of the silhouettes as they applaud. Plucky and Hamton both take a bow, then the camera cuts back to Plucky)
Plucky: "Thank you! And I mean that. On the ivories, ladies and jellybeans, my main man with the magic fingers, Ham-tone Jones!"
(The camera cuts to a view of Hamton)
Hamton: "You're beautiful, babe! Some kind of nutty, kooky, beautiful cat!"
(The camera cuts back to Plucky as the silhouettes stop applauding. Plucky has a shocked expression on his face)

(The audience laughs. The camera cuts to a zoomed-out view as Plucky walks offstage)
Plucky: "Say, now, what do you say we take a sec and meet some of our happy hunters-to-be? Hmmm?"
(Plucky jumps onto a table that Elmer Fudd is sitting at. The camera then cuts to a view of him and Elmer together)
Plucky: (as he puts his microphone into and out of Elmer's mouth) "Hey, you're Elmer Fudd, aren't you?"
(The audience laughs)
Plucky: "I thought you looked 'Fudd-miliar'!" (Plucky nudges Elmer, then laughs nervously) "Hey, a little joke, sports fans!"
(The camera cuts to Hamton)
Hamton: "Very little."
(The audience laughs as the camera cuts back to Plucky and Elmer)
Plucky: "Elmer, I don't know what you do for a day job, but," (Singing): "Oh, I've been workin'," (Speaking as he is applauded) "Oh, thank you, thank you" (Singing as he jumps into Elmer's arms): "On the railroad," (Speaking) "Oh, Jack!" (Singing as the audience laughs): "All the livelong gosh-darn-it's-hot day!"
(The camera cuts to Hamton as he plays the piano, then back to Plucky and Elmer. Plucky jumps up and sits on top of Elmer's head)
Plucky: "Hey, and speaking of livin' long,"
(The camera cuts to a view of the clock)
Plucky: "Our countdown to hunting season is gettin' close!"
(The camera cuts back to Elmer and Plucky. Elmer is starting to get "vewy vewy mad")
Plucky: "And from the looks on your faces, I'd say the pray doesn't have a prayer! And I mean that. Jack, let's count it down!"
(The camera cuts to a zoomed-out view of the stage, revealing the silhouettes belonged to Elmer Fudd Clones. They all pull out their rifle cases and unzip them as they count down)
Elmer Fudd Clones: "Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Fouw..."
(The camera cuts back to Plucky)
Plucky: "By the way, uh, just what is it hunting season for?"
(The camera cuts back to the Elmer Fudd Clones)
Elmer Fudd Clones: "Thwee, Two, One! Ha ha ha ha ha!"
(The camera cuts to an overhead view of Plucky as the Elmer Fudd Clones point their rifles at him)
Plucky: "Duck?"
(The audience laughs. The camera cuts to a view of Hamton playing the piano as the Elmer Fudd clones shoot Plucky, then to a view of a dazed Plucky with a defeathered scalp. The audience laughs)
Plucky (dazed): "Thank you. We'll be taking a short break now."

The Cornheads[]
(The sketch begins in a living room. Buster and Babs are dressed in corncob hats and purple capes. Buster is standing next to the table as Babs walks in and sets a plate of root beer bottles down on the table. The camera cuts to a zoomed-in view as she and Buster stand behind the table)
Babs (monotone voice): "The consumables are prepared, beloved corn man."
(Buster pulls out a fork and sticks it in the cork of one of the bottles. He removes the bottle and tosses it aside, then sniffs the cork)
Buster (monotone voice): "Yes, the cork emits strong, molecular, o-factory rays, which stimulate the digestive tract."
(The audience laughs as Buster puts the cork in his mouth and swallows it. He puts the fork inside his shirt as Babs picks up another bottle)

Buster and Babs (simultaneous monotone voices): "Her blind date."
Babs (monotone voice as she nudges Buster): "Jinx. Owe me a yoo-hoo!"

Elmyra (monotone voice): "Yoo-hoo. Here I come."
(Elmyra jumps onto the stair rail and slides down. The camera cuts to a view on stair rail, zooming in on Blard, then to a view of the living room as Elmyra crashes into him, emitting a cloud of dust. The audience laughs, and when the dust clears, a view of the four together can be seen. Babs picks up Elmyra and Buster picks up Blard)
Elmyra (monotone voice): "Thank you, Oh my Parental Units. The Earth's gravitational pull is mighty."
(Elmyra blushes)

Buster (monotone voice): "Her corn's a-poppin'. You know what we must do."
(The audience laughs as the camera cuts back to Elmyra. Her face is now red and the corn on her head pops off, turning into popcorn.

The camera cuts to a zoomed-out view of the living room as Buster and Babs are standing behind a pile of popcorn)
Babs (monotone voice): "Call Orville Redenbacher and fetch some butter?"
(The audience laughs as the camera zooms in and out on Buster and Babs as they use their corncob hats to emit another spark. The text, THE CORNHEADS appears above them. The audience applauds as the screen transitions to a view of Blard Simpleton onstage, waving to the viewers)
Blard: "Good night, man!"
