* DramaticallyDelayedDrug: Wile E. tries to get the Roadrunner by feeding it Acme Earthquake Pills. The Roadrunner eats them, then runs on its merry way with no effect. Wile E. looks at the bottle of pills, wondering if they're defective. He takes a few pills, then waits for them to take effect. Nothing happens. He laughs scornfully and then downs the entire bottleful, then waits again. Still nothing. He throws the empty bottle away, but as he does so, he notices some fine print on the label: it reads "CAUTION: Not effective on Road Runners." Wile E. gulps, then slowly stands up and starts to take a step... and ''that's'' when the pills take effect.

** Much like the ABC version, the Nickelodeon version also cut the part where Wile E. ingests the entire bottle of pills before throwing the bottle aside and reading the warning that the pills don't work on Roadrunners (contrast with "WesternAnimation/StopLookAndHasten" being edited on Nickelodeon for pill ingesting, where the only thing cut was the shot of the box that stated that there are vitamins in it). Unlike the ABC version, Nickelodeon kept in the scene of Wile E. tangled on the cactus with the dynamite.

The standard {{chase scene}} that opens the cartoon turns into a HopeSpot for the Coyote. When he thinks he’s finally captured his prey, he realizes that he has only a dust impression of him. After a pair of jump scares and getting flattened by the pole, he goes off to prepare for more.
The Coyote begins by lying in wait behind a walled formation… only to be greeted by another speeding truck. From there, it’s yet another collection of sight gags, with the usual results and no real surprises. They are: a boulder on a lanyard; a TNT load in a small tunnel; a Christmas present-making machine; another TNT stick on a fishing hook (which gets caught in the arm of a cactus); and finally, ACME Earthquake Pills, which he uses as birdseed — which, including the “canyon fall gag,” is the longest-running single scene in any Road Runner cartoon.
