- Quotes
Daffy Duck: [as Porky comes out of the police station] Well, how'd you make out, chum?
Porky Pig: He l-let me off easy. He only fined me t-t-two dollars.
Daffy Duck: Two dollars? Why that's an outrage! You wait right here. I'll fix it. I'll slap him with a habeas corpuscle.
[Goes inside, arguing heard]
Daffy Duck: Oh, he-he, looks like you'll have to cough up another fifty bucks. They slapped us with a reckless driving charge.
Porky Pig: I t-t-tried to tell you. Oh, d-drat that crazy duck anyhow!
Daffy Duck: [Get's kicked out] I hope you appreciate what I've done for you.
Porky Pig: Oooh... Oh, I do, I do. I really do. W-w-wait right here a minute.
[laughs evilly]
Daffy Duck: Now what's he doing in that gifty shoppe?
[Porky arrives with a present]
Daffy Duck: Well, what have we got here?
Porky Pig: Oh, it's j-j-just a little present for you in a-appreciation for all you've done for me.
Daffy Duck: A present for me? Oh, boy, give me my present! Give me my present, let me see what my present is! Come on, give me my present!
Porky Pig: Oh, n-n-no. It's a surprise for you. I'll j-just put it in here.
[Quickly puts present in trunk]
Porky Pig: And d-don't you dare peek.
Daffy Duck: Ooh, I hate not knowing what it is. I think I'll have a little peek.
[opens trunk, all the luggage comes flying out; Porky drives off laughing]
Daffy Duck: Ooh, the dirty double crosser!
[sees present]
Daffy Duck: My present. Oh, boy, I wonder what it is? I gotta see! Gotta see! Gotta see!
[Opens present; inside is an Acme Hitch-hiker Thumb, approved by AAA; cut to Daffy hitchhiking with fake thumb in the snow]
Daffy Duck: Oh, my aching thumb!

Anyhow, basically here Daffy Duck wants to go south for the winter but cannot be bothered to fly like the other birds. He reckons a good way to travel south is by hitch-hiking, so he begins to attempt hitch-hiking at the start. After a few cars pass him and do not let him ride, he manages to make his way into the car of none other than Porky Pig... Will he manage to travel down south by hitch-hiking...?
I recommend this episode to Daffy Duck fans, or fans of the crazy Daffy Duck, to Porky Pig fans and to those who like Looney Tunes in general. This episode has an interesting plot idea, which is the subject of hitch-hiking, something that I have not watched since in a Looney Tunes episode before or since I first saw this cartoon. Enjoy "Thumb Fun"! :-)
