Officer O'Hara: The real cops are Irish, as is Bugs' impression of a cop. | |

| Bugs and Thugs / int_239e52c1 | comment |
Diminishing Villain Threat: Rocky and his goons were a sinister menace against Daffy Duck and Sylvester in previous shorts (and even won in "Golden Yeggs"). Naturally, against Bugs, Rocky quickly meets his match, especially paired with his far stupider mook, Mugsy. | |

| Bugs and Thugs / int_65acf9db | comment |
He Knows Too Much: Spoofed when Rocky asks Bugs what he knows, and Bugs rattles off a string of irrelevant trivia. Rocky concludes that "the rabbit knows too much" and decides to get rid of him. | |

Here We Go Again!: After Bugs pretends to talk to a policeman while Rocky and Mugsy hide in the stove (and Bugs lights it to "prove" Rocky is not there), the real police come and the entire exchange happens again... except this time Rocky and Mugsy break out and beg to be arrested. | |

Caught Up in a Robbery | |
| Bugs and Thugs / int_70bd07ef | comment |
Caught Up in a Robbery: Bugs visits a bank, where he keeps carrots in a safe deposit box. Upon leaving the bank, Bugs mistakes the getaway car of Rocky and Mugsy for a waiting taxicab. Rocky then leaves the bank, fires a couple of shots into the lobby, and tosses in some Stock Money Bags. The loot and the bunny get taken to the crooks' hideout. | |

Reaching Between the Lines: As Bugs calls the cops from a phone booth, Rocky drags him back into the car and drives off while Bugs is still holding the receiver. The cop on the other line is pulled through the booth and dragged down the road before the line snaps. | |

Stock Money Bag | |
| Bugs and Thugs / int_97293a99 | comment |
Stock Money Bag: The diminutive criminal Rocky robs the City Bank and emerges with about eight full cloth sacks, which he throws into the rear passenger area of his getaway car. None of the sacks have a dollar sign, though, which is why Bugs Bunny mistakes them for sacks of laundry. | |

In-Joke: Bugs Bunny, Private Eyeball, has a certificate on his wall awarded by the "Detectives' Guild Local 839". This is a nod to the Burbank, California chapter of what was then the Cartoonists Guild union (later dissolved and succeeded by the Animation Guild, but with the same chapter). | |

| Bugs and Thugs / int_aa0ed8a9 | comment |
Look Both Ways: At a railroad crossing, Rocky asks Bugs to see whether the train is approaching. Bugs looks both ways and gives the all clear. Rocky crosses... and is hit by the express train. He has Bugs fix the wrecked car, but when one of the wheels goes missing, Rocky makes Bugs take the place of the wheel. | |

Literal-Minded: When Rocky tells Mugsy to take Bugs into the other room and let him have it, Bugs convinces Mugsy that Rocky meant to let him have the gun. Also, when Rocky asks Bugs what he knows, Bugs answers, "Oh I know lots of things. Two and two is four, Carson City is the capital of Nevada, George Washington was the first President..." | |
