While in Central City, Louisiana, orphans Andi (Emma Roberts) and Bruce (Jake T. Austin) manage to sell a rock in a box to a pawn shop to buy food for their dog, Friday, a Jack Russell Terrier. However, they are quickly caught and marched off to the police station, where their social worker, Bernie Wilkins (Don Cheadle) picks them up and takes them back to their foster parents, Lois and Carl Scudder (Lisa Kudrow and Kevin Dillon, respectively), who appear not to care for either Andi or Bruce. When the two demand to know where their foster children have been, Bernie covers for them, telling them that it was his fault they were late. Despite his sympathies towards the two siblings, he warns them that they are playing a dangerous game by deliberately getting into trouble in order to escape Carl and Lois, since they could get fostered separately, something that both orphans are desperate to avoid. During Bernie's visit, Friday returns home and Bruce quickly bustles Bernie out of the door, since Friday's presence is to be kept secret.

Peter Banning is a successful corporate lawyer who spends more time at work than with his wife Moira and children Jack and Maggie. The Bannings fly to London to visit Moira's grandmother, an older Wendy Darling, to celebrate her charity work for orphans, which once included Peter. During the visit, Peter is distracted by phone calls from his office and on one occasion, shouts at his children when they interrupt him, leading Moira to throw his cellphone out of an open window. Later, while Peter, Moira, and Wendy attend a banquet ceremony hosted by Great Ormond Street Hospital, a strange presence abducts Jack and Maggie. Tootles, another of Wendy's orphans who lives at her house, informs Peter that Captain Hook took the children to Neverland. Peter dismisses Tootles' warning and calls the police instead. With no sign of the children anywhere, Wendy informs Peter that he is actually Peter Pan and that he lost his memories of Neverland when he decided to stay in London with Wendy many years ago. Once again, Peter dismisses these claims and waits for the police to find his children.

Un chasseur noir marche en traînant et chantonne dans une forêt, à la recherche de gibier. Il découvre le terrier de Bugs Bunny et menace le lapin avec son fusil depuis son entrée. Bugs, toujours dans le terrier, agite le drapeau blanc et se rend en levant ses mains hors du trou. Le chasseur le pousse en avant, lui et son trou de terrier, en dépit de toutes les lois de la physique, jusqu'à ce que le trou « monte » le long d'un tronc d'arbre. Bugs provoque encore le chasseur. Le chasseur tire, détruit le tronc. Cependant, la fumée dissipée, Bugs se retrouve couché sur le canon de son fusil, tout sourire. Il enfonce le chapeau sur la tête du chasseur puis s'enfuit en « nageant » dans la terre. Le chasseur aveuglé s'affole et recherche son fusil. Bugs Buny le lui donne gentiment puis indique la direction dans laquelle le « maudit lapin » se serait enfui. Le naïf chasseur se précipite avant de s'apercevoir de son erreur. Bugs l'appelle depuis un terrier. En colère noire contre le lapin, le chasseur le déloge avec une ventouse. Bugs lui enfonce à nouveau son chapeau puis le chatouille ; il s'échappe avec la ventouse collée à l'arrière-train et plonge dans le terrier. Le chasseur attrape la ventouse, mais c'est un putois qu'il trouve au bout. Le lapin l'attire ensuite dans une grotte. Ils y découvrent la présence d'un ours. Le chasseur se réfugie dans le terrier. On découvre que Bugs l'y a suivi, ainsi que... l'ours. Bugs et le chasseur fuient encore, se cachent derrière un arbre. Bugs se retrouve sur les chaussures démesurément longues du noir qui déambule, où ses longues pattes de lapin logent à l'aise. Bugs s'en rend compte et fuit à nouveau. Le chasseur tire une volée de plombs en direction de Bugs. Ceux-ci forment une seule entité qui a sa vie propre, à la manière d'une nuée d'étourneaux. Elle poursuit Bugs de terrier en terrier et dans chacun de ses mouvements. Le lapin utilise un tronc creux au sol pour diriger le chasseur vers un précipice : il le tourne d'un demi-tour chaque fois que le chasseur se rend compte qu'il débouche sur le vide, jusqu'à la chute prévisible (cette scène sera reprise intégralement dans The Big Snooze (1946) de Bob Clampett, avec Elmer dans le rôle du chasseur). Le chasseur revient de sa chute en piteux état et complètement furieux. Bugs, menacé, tente de le calmer en lui montrant un jeu de dés. Enthousiaste, le chasseur l'emmène jouer aux dés derrière un buisson. Finalement, Bugs gagne tout ce que possède le chasseur noir et sort revêtu de ses vêtements, en imitant son chant et sa démarche traînante. Le chasseur malchanceux se retrouve nu comme Adam, une feuille de vigne pour seul habit. Cela ne suffit pas encore au lapin : alors que l'iris se referme, marquant ainsi la fin du cartoon, on revoit Bugs souriant et tenant la feuille à la main comme un trophée.
