Plot happens.


* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: While the Automatic Carrot Peeler does become famous at first, its popularity quickly declines once it's discovered to be highly flammable. It turns out Daffy never properly finished the device at all because he was too lazy to go beyond Step 3, leaving the device without a cooling system to keep it from overheating. Because of this, customers start demanding refunds from Daffy, with one buyer promising to sue him for all he's got.

* JerkassBall: While it's no secrect how unpleasent a person Daffy is in general to everyone, this is one of the episodes where he takes it up a notch and extends such antisocial behavior to his best friend Bugs. He stole his idea for the automatic carrot peeler purely for greed, without even giving him credit (as he would then have to give him some of the profits from the royalty check as law would demand), even though he gave him a room in his own house rent free, buys food for him, and basically takes care of him in general since he clearly couldn't do it himself.

* UnderestimatingBadassery: A rare example where someone underestimates the potential of their own invention. Bugs at first isn't worried about Daffy marketing his Automatic Carrot Peeler, since nobody else would eat so many carrots to justify the cost of the machine. Then it soon becomes more famous than his original carrot peeler, leaving Bugs broke. If Daffy had bothered to properly finish the carrot peeler, then he would have maintained his ill-gotten fame and fortune.

Since he can't give customers a refund because he spent all the money on his greedy wishes, constructions workers decide to destroy Daffy's house.

The eleventh episode of the first season of ''WesternAnimation/TheLooneyTunesShow''.

When Daffy finds out that Bugs is incredibly rich from inventing the carrot peeler, he steals Bugs' plans for an automatic carrot peeler so he can become rich as well. His plan works, and when Bugs goes broke, Daffy becomes mean and selfish to him when he lets him live at their house, eventually resulting in Bugs leaving. When Daffy's automatic carrot peeler backfires, he must beg Bugs to come back and help him fix his mistake.

This episode features the "We Are in Love" Merrie Melodies Music video and the ''[[WesternAnimation/WileECoyoteAndTheRoadRunner Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote]]'' short, "Heavy Metal".

----

* BadJobWorseUniform: When people stop buying regular carrot peelers, Bugs has to take a job at an ice cream parlor called The Inside Scoop where the uniform includes an ice cream cone hat.
* BaitAndSwitch: Daffy tries his hand at inventing. His speech indicates he's invented a time machine... but he's invented a suitcase.
* BrokeEpisode: In this episode, Bugs becomes broke when people stop buying his regular carrot peelers in favor of Daffy's automatic ones. He first tries to live with Daffy, but Daffy's mean and selfish behavior prompts him to move back into his old rabbit hole.
* BuildingIsWelding: PlayedForLaughs; there are flashes of arc welding from the garage and Daffy is shown wearing a welding mask just before he unveils his latest invention... sliced bread!
* DeusExMachina: Bugs builds a time machine in a matter of seconds and goes back in time to undo the events of this episode.
* {{Expy}}: The employee at The Inside Scoop bears a slight resemblance to Little John from the short "Rabbit Hood", except he has curly brown hair that sticks out like Larry Fine from ''Film/TheThreeStooges''.
* Fiction500: It is revealed in this episode that Bugs has invented the carrot peeler and lives off the very hefty royalties. He's able to buy extravagant things and never seems to be out of cash, especially when having Daffy mooch off him.
* FriendsRentControl: Addressed in this episode; Daffy asks where Bugs gets all his money and Bugs explains he invented the carrot peeler. We see him get a check for it in the mail during the episode, making it quickly obvious how Bugs can afford to not work and still buy whatever he wants when he wants. The same episode implies if he needs to, he could invent other things to cash in on.
* IWasYoungAndNeededTheMoney: This is Daffy's excuse for stealing Bugs' plans for the automatic carrot peeler.
* InventorOfTheMundane: Bugs' wealth comes from his invention of the carrot peeler.
* ItsBeenDone: Daffy tries to come up with an invention that will make him rich. His first three inventions are sliced bread, toilet paper and a suitcase, which Bugs notes have already been invented by other people.
* MissionImpossibleCableDrop: In the "We Are in Love" Merrie Melodies music video, Lola does it to break into Bugs' house.
* MoneyFetish: After becoming rich, Daffy is shown rolling around in a pile of cash on his bed.
* MythologyGag: After going broke, Bugs is forced to move back into his old rabbit hole from the original ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' theatrical shorts.
* ObsessionSong: The "We Are in Love" Merrie Melodies music video has Lola sing about how madly in love with Bugs she is.
* OneHourWorkWeek: Averted in a pretty amusing way; Bugs invented the carrot peeler and gets enough checks delivered every week to buy whatever he wants. (Daffy doesn't work because he keeps getting fired from jobs, so if the plot requires him to purchase anything, he steals from Bugs or Porky.) On occasion, Bugs will buy him things, if just to shut him up. He does this with Daffy's banana split at the end of this episode to prevent Daffy from stealing his plans for the automatic carrot peeler.
* OvercomplicatedMenuOrder: Daffy does this with a banana split at the The Inside Scoop ice cream parlor.
-->'''Daffy:''' I'll take a banana split. ''(cashier begins scooping)'' Uhp! One scoop vanilla. One scoop chocolate, one scoop strawberry. ''(cashier scoops again)'' Uhp! Put the strawberry in the middle! ''(cashier scoops one last time)'' And now hot fudge. Uhp! Only on the vanilla and chocolate! Put regular fudge on the strawberry. Now some whipped cream. ''(cashier begins spraying)'' Hey-Hey-Hey-He-ey, easy! Little more... Little more... Little more only on the vanilla! Kinda fill in that space right there. Stop! ''(cashier and sundae are both coated in whipped cream)'' Now some nuts! ''(cashier scoops nuts)'' Uhp. No nut dust. ''(cashier brushes away'' ''[[NoRespectGuy all]]'' ''the nuts)'' Now, this is the complicated part. No green sprinkles on the chocolate. Yes, green sprinkles on the strawberry. But both no red sprinkles. Except on the vanilla, which should receive exclusively red sprinkles!\\
'''Cashier:''' ''([[ApatheticClerk pours sprinkles indiscriminately]])'' That'll be $5.85...\\
'''Daffy:''' I've only got 16 cents. ''(drops coins; cashier looks confused)'' [[EntitledBastard Get the rest from your tip jar!]] ''(cashier hits Daffy [[PieInTheFace in the face with the banana split]])''
* PlagiarismInFiction: When Daffy learns Bugs lives off royalties from having invented the carrot peeler, he steals Bugs' plans for an automatic carrot peeler. At first, Bugs isn't worried because nobody other than him eats carrots often enough to need the automatic peeler (which was the reason Bugs never marketed it before) but it soon changed and Daffy was living the good life until a mechanical flaw caused the people who bought the automatic carrot peelers to demand a refund. Daffy could have avoided this trouble by following the project's seventh step but he was too lazy to read beyond step three. A ResetButtonEnding saves the day and Bugs, who remembers the whole mess, decides not to tell Daffy about the carrot peeler.
* ResetButtonEnding: This episode ends with Bugs using his time machine to go back in time and prevent this episode's events from happening.
* RuleOfThree: Daffy tries to invent three different things, only for Bugs to tell him that they've already been invented by other people; they are sliced bread, toilet paper, and a suitcase.
* StalkerWithACrush: The "We Are in Love" Merrie Melodies music video can best be described as "Stalker With a Crush: The Song". Among other tendencies of this trope, Lola stands outside Bugs' house in the rain while sporting a SlasherSmile.
* ShoutOut:
** This episode's title is a reference to ''Series/WheelOfFortune''.
** The ''Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote'' short, "Heavy Metal" features Wile E. building [[Film/IronMan1 a suit from a box of scraps deep inside a cave]].
* StrippingSnag: In this episode's prologue, Bugs and Daffy are at the mall, where Daffy wears a pair of "Mall Pants". Daffy's mall pants get caught in the escalator and sucked off just before the opening credits run.
* ThisIsMyBoomstick: In TheStinger, Daffy attempts to impress a group of cavemen with the miracle of toilet paper. It doesn't work. (Throwing the roll at their heads probably didn't help.)
* TimeMachine: Bugs invents one near the end of the episode to go back in time and undo the episode's events. Daffy uses it in TheStinger to go back to prehistoric times and show cavemen the miracle of toilet paper.
