** The redrawn-colorized version was heavily cut, shortening the part where Daffy holds up signs telling people to be quiet to remove the "Hush Yo' Mouf" sign and the sign with Hebrew writing which translates to "Silence is Foo!" when shaken; Daffy hitting himself with a mallet and consulting his three ghostly selves about Porky's "condition"; and the scene of Daffy and Porky tripping into the iron lung (though given the horrendous quality of the hand-drawn colorized versions, some of these may have been cuts done because the animators screwed up so badly that the scenes were unusable).

Daffy works at a hospital as a surgical assistant to Dr. Quack. When he gets thrown out of the operating room for fooling around, Daffy decides to prove himself by finding his own patient to operate on... and Porky Pig just happens to be walking by the hospital.



* BodyInflationGag: After getting his head stuck in the Iron Lung, Daffy's head starts expanding and contracting like a balloon. He tries to hold it still, but that just causes another part of his body to expand and contract. In the end of the cartoon, both Daffy and Porky get stuck in the Iron Lung again, causing their body parts to expand and contract again.
