Henery Hawk is talking with his father about wanting to get a chicken, but Henery's father dissuades him, as he'd get in the way. Notably, Henery's father lies about what a chicken looks like, leaving Henery in the dark as to what a chicken really is. Henery's father raids a chicken coop and walks out with a couple of chickens, but is stopped by Foghorn, who doesn't let Henery's father get a word in edgewise before kicking him out. When Henery asks his father if that was a chicken, his father claims Foghorn isn't a chicken but a "shnook" (walking away with a yellow stripe down his back). Henery goes over to Banyard Dawg's house, and knocks the dog out with a shovel. Foghorn stops them and asks Henery what he thinks he is - to which Henery replies that Foghorn is a "loud mouthed shnook." Foghorn isn't helped when the dog wakes up and kicks him, calling him a shnook.

It stars Bugs Bunny and introduces Marvin the Martian — although he is unnamed in this film — along with his Martian dog, K-9. All the voices are done by Mel Blanc. Marvin's nasal voice is similar to one that Blanc used for the emcee in What's Cookin' Doc?, for just one line, where the emcee says, "Shall we give it to him, folks?"
