[2] Elmer Fudd, initially in pursuit of Bugs Bunny with his hunting dogs, finds himself entangled in a peculiar situation upon receiving a telegram informing him of a substantial inheritance from his uncle Louie.

Bugs' inventive schemes further complicate matters, including feigning illness to manipulate Elmer's sympathies and exploiting his fears of losing the inheritance.

The dynamic between the two characters oscillates between moments of genuine concern and comedic absurdity, as Bugs continually outwits Elmer with his quick thinking and resourcefulness.

In a final twist, a postman delivers a giant Easter egg to Elmer, unleashing a horde of miniature Bugs Bunnys who wreak havoc on the scene.

The title of the short is a reference to the 1942 Warner Brothers film version of the 1939 George S. Kaufman Broadway comedy The Man Who Came to Dinner, in which an overbearing house-guest threatens to take over the lives of a small-town family.
