Riff Raffy Daffy

A homeless Daffy Duck is trying to find a place to sleep in a City Park. Daffy tries to sleep in a trash can, up a tree, and even in a gopher's hole, evicting the gopher, furniture and all. Porky Pig is a cop, who tells Daffy that sleeping in the park is against the law. After being kicked out of the park, Daffy complains that it is "the coldest night in sixty-four years" and wonders where he is going to sleep. Daffy spots a department store window with a comfortable living room-type display and goes inside. Porky sees him and comes in the store, using a skeleton key.

A series of chases ensues, with Daffy always outmaneuvering Porky, including twice where he tricks Porky into entering an empty elevator shaft. Daffy begs for sympathy from Porky for the sake of his two kids, which are actually wind-up toy ducks that look like Daffy. Porky takes pity, telling Daffy that he can stay at the store, and justifying it by saying to himself that he understands Daffy's situation because he has three kids of his own, which are actually wind-up toy pigs.

Censorship[]

On the ABC version of this short, two scenes were cut:^[2]
- The part where Daffy advances on Porky and Porky backs into and falls down an empty elevator shaft.
- The part after Porky captures Daffy in a hammock where Daffy steals some fireworks and lights them.

Goofs[]

When Porky Pig says, "Ble-ble-er-er with this!", his lips do not move.

Notes[]

This is the first cartoon to revive the Porky and Daffy head mugshots last used on "Angel Puss" in 1944, now redesigned and used until 1951.
- It is currently the only cartoon where these Porky and Daffy mugshots survive on restored prints since this cartoon was not reissued; all of the other cartoons that had these mugshots were reissued in the Blue Ribbon program and still retained their reissue titles when restored.
This is the only Arthur Davis-directed cartoon to have Daffy and Porky together.
This is one of only two Warner Bros. cartoons to which the original camera negatives do not survive, the other being the lost Private Snafu short "Secrets of the Caribbean". Due to this, it is the only cartoon to use inferior Cinecolor prints for TV airings and home media releases, unlike most other cartoons in which superior "dupe" Technicolor elements have been used since the 1980s.
- The latest restoration, which was used for Looney Tunes Collector's Choice: Volume 3, utilizes a Super Cinecolor 35mm print from the studio vault. Super Cinecolor was a three-strip color process which created a wider color spectrum, making it more advanced than regular Cinecolor (which utilized only two-strips).^[3]
