** Three flashbacks are shown of Sam using his pistols irresponsibly. In he first, he uses them to shoot at a button in the elevator to hold the door open for a customer. In the second, he shoots at a cutout of a minimum height requirement at the carnival because he wasn't tall enough to ride the roller coaster. The third has him at a restaurant, shooting at a waiter for not giving him dressing with his salad like he asked.

* NutritionalNightmare: When Speedy Gonzales is helping Daffy train to run a marathon, he questions Daffy's diet when Daffy drinks root beer sodas as his "energy drink". Daffy reveals he eats a hot dog with a ton of powdered sugar on it for breakfast, for lunch he eats a deep-fried turkey sandwich on wheat with powdered sugar on it, and for dinner he eats a casserole with powdered sugar on the top and bottom layer and baby back ribs and marshmallows in the center, and after cooking it in a microwave, he sprinkles more powdered sugar on it. Speedy is visually disgusted by Daffy's diet. Also, Daffy's idea for a "protein bar" is a tube of cookie dough. When Speedy tells Daffy to eat eggs for breakfast before his race, Daffy does so by placing the eggs on the bottom layer of his powdered sugar casserole.

Yosemite Sam even references this trope, which to him means stalking Bugs all day so that he'll be around to repay the favor saving Bugs' life.

Porky decides to run a marathon. When Daffy hears about this, he worries about his position in his circle of friends, so he decides to run in the marathon as well. Meanwhile, Yosemite Sam is determined to pay Bugs back for all the nice things he's done for him, even though Bugs isn't really asking for anything in return.

* GoneHorriblyWrong: Bugs asks Porky to hit him with his car so Sam can save his life and stop bothering him. Just as Sam is about to save Bugs, Daffy screams in pain when Speedy pulls his fingers towards his toes, resulting in Bugs, Porky, and Sam all getting distracted and Porky hitting Bugs for real, leading to Bugs getting hospitalized. To make matters worse, instead of deciding to stop trying to save Bugs' life, Sam tries ten times as hard.
* HonorBeforeReason: Yosemite Sam has a rather bizarre code of honor, always trying to return favors to people who help him.[[note]]Such as baking Bugs a cake when he takes the battery out of a malfunctioning smoke detector, which unfortunately leads to him go back into his burning house to [[SkewedPriorities retrieve it so he won't stay indebted to Bugs]].[[/note]] He even goes so far as to try to save Bugs' life when the latter saves him from a house fire, spending the entire episode tailing him and looking for danger to save him from, much to Bugs' annoyance.
* HopeSpot: After finding out that Daffy eats a hot dog with powdered sugar for breakfast and being disgusted by it, Speedy is relieved when Daffy says that he usually eats a turkey sandwich on wheat bread for lunch. Unfortunately, Daffy reveals that he deep-fries said turkey sandwich and sprinkles powdered sugar on it.
* HypocriticalHumor: Daffy calls Porky a buffoon for committing himself to training for the marathon. He says this as he eats a tube of cookie dough as a protein bar.
* IOweYouMyLife: Yosemite Sam makes it clear that he hates owing people favors, so he decides to simply repay Bugs for changing the batteries in his smoke detector by baking him a cake... which causes a fire that forces Bugs to save him from.

* ImmediateSelfContradiction: After Sam gets Bugs hospitalized, he tries ten times as hard to save his life, vowing never to let him leave his sight. Just then, Dr. Weisberg tells him and Porky that visiting hours are over, and Sam leaves, but not before trying unsuccessfully to get Porky to sign his petition.

In the second, he shoots at a cutout of a minimum height requirement at the carnival because he wasn't tall enough to ride the roller coaster. The third has him at a restaurant, shooting at a waiter for not giving him dressing with his salad like he asked.
** Three characters get hospitalized. First, Daffy when he becomes winded trying to train for the marathon, then Sam after Bugs saves him from a house fire, and finally Bugs after Porky accidentally hits him with his car in a botched attempt to get Sam to save him.
* SitcomCharacterArchetypes: Lampshaded; this episode has Daffy try to officially assign everyone their roles within his circle of friends. Needless to say, he both completely misidentifies them and changes their role each time he mentions them. Then Dr. Weisberg (of all people) gets in on it and starts referring to Daffy by those titles.
* SpeciesSurname: This episode's prologue has Daffy ask Bugs what Porky's surname is, to which Bugs tells him it's "Pig". Before, Daffy had assumed "Pig" was Porky's nickname, and that it was short for something like "Pigman" or "Pigstein".
* SpitTake:
** Daffy spits out his cheeseburger when Porky tells him that he's training for a marathon.
** Bugs spits out his coffee when he finds out that Daffy has decided to train for the marathon.
* StopHelpingMe: Bugs makes it very clear to Sam that he doesn't owe him anything and gets annoyed when Sam keeps trying to save him, not that any of this stops Sam.
* SureLetsGoWithThat: When the marathon is about to begin, Bugs is given the job of shooting the starter's pistol, which Sam mistakes for the judge trying to shoot him. Bugs tries to explain to Sam that the starter's pistol isn't a real gun before pretending that Sam saved his life so Sam will finally leave him alone.
* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome:
** Sam is ordered by the government not to use his pistols because he was using them irresponsibly. This episode's B-plot has him trying unsuccessfully to get people to sign a petition so he can get them back.
** As a result of his unhealthy diet, Daffy is unable to finish the marathon and gets stomach pain. Porky has to carry him the entire way.
* TreadmillTrauma: This episode's third act begins with Porky running on a treadmill when he gets a phone call from Bugs. When Bugs asks Porky to try to hit him with his car (so that Sam can save his life and stop bothering him), Porky stops in shock and falls off his treadmill.
* WithFriendsLikeThese: When Bugs wakes up in the hospital after getting hit by Porky's car, Dr. Weisberg tells Bugs that he needs to get some new friends, since Sam nearly got him killed in a house fire and Porky hit him with his car.
* YouMustBeThisTallToRide: One of the flashbacks of Sam using his pistols irresponsibly shows him shooting at a cutout of a minimum height requirement at the carnival because he wasn't tall enough to ride the roller coaster.
