Firehouse Frenzy is a 2020 Looney Tunes Cartoons short directed by Kenny Pittenger.

Plot[]

In the fire department, Daffy Duck is sound asleep until the fire bell begins to chime. He thinks it's his alarm clock, which has already turned off. Still hearing the bell, however, he throws the clock in his bedside table drawer. With the chiming stuck in his ears, he opens his blearily bloodshot eyes before the Daffy inside his head closes them like a curtain, after which he grabs a hatchet and destroys his entire bedside table, clock included. Porky Pig, having already woken up, alerts Daffy that he needs to get into his uniform, to which Daffy shrugs, leading the pig to try and pull him out of bed. After two failed attempts, he discovers a lever on Daffy's bed that ejects him onto the fireman's pole, finally waking him up.

Sliding down the pole, they ride on a carousel horse, get separated through many twists, bends, and turns, halt midway to allow a family of ducks to pass, and land in the fiery realm of Hell, where Satan informs them that the fire is upstairs before pricking them upward with his trident towards the North Pole, after which Daffy says that they should've "hung a Louie" at Poland. Santa Claus tells them the fire is downstairs before slamming them downward with his sackful of toys to the first floor. Daffy and Porky then battle over which uniform they should wear in the changing room, even wearing the same attire at one point. But eventually, they settle on wearing separate uniforms. Daffy lists that the last essential they need is a Dalmatian, so he kidnaps a man, names him "Man," paints him black and white, and stows him away in the fire truck. The pair finally head out after Daffy retrieves his coffee flask.

When they finally reach the fire, they realize it was always in the fire department. After the department burns, Daffy and Porky climb into their intact beds and go back to sleep, smashing the clock as they do so.
