Ain't That Ducky is a 1945 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon, directed by Friz Freleng.[2] The cartoon was released on May 19, 1945, and stars Daffy Duck.[3]

Plot

[edit]

Daffy Duck is interrupted during his bath by the distressing sobs of a yellow duckling carrying a satchel. Despite Daffy's attempts to inquire about the duckling's troubles, he is met with dismissive replies. Even the arrival of a hunter fails to deter the duckling's curt responses. As the hunter turns his attention to Daffy, the two engage in a familiar chase, with Daffy occasionally addressing the audience about missing elements in the scene.

Midway through, Daffy and the hunter briefly team up to obtain the satchel, but their efforts are thwarted when they encounter an obstacle on the road. After a series of mishaps, including Daffy's tumble down a mountainside, the hunter manages to grab the satchel. However, upon opening it, they discover only a piece of paper with the words "The End," leaving them as bewildered as the yellow duckling.
