Hilarity Ensues is now a redirect to Played For Laughs.


One night while Bugs Bunny is sleeping, a rain occurs and floods his hole, causing him to be carried out onto a river leading to the castle of an evil scientist, who captures him with the intent of removing the rabbit's brain and placing it in his recently-created robot. However, once Bugs wakes up and realizes where he is, he escapes in a panic, prompting the scientist to send in his assistant Rudolph to bring Bugs back to him. Soon enough, HilarityEnsues.
