Directed by Charles M. Jones. Produced by Edward Selzer. (uncredited) Story by Michael Maltese.

This cartoon was featured in The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Movie.

[First lines]

Bugs Bunny: Well, here I am. Hey, just a cotton-picking minute. This don't look like the Coachella Valley to me. [picks up a map] Hmm, I knew I should've taken that left turn at Albukoikee. Oh well, I'll just ask this gent in the fancy knickerbockers. Eh, I beg your par... [the matador runs right past him who chases him] Eh, pardon me, sir, but could you direct me to the shortest route to the Coachella Valley and the big carrot festival therein? [the matador climbs the fence] Eh, what's up, Doc?
