"Porky Pig's Feat" is a 1943 Looney Tunes short, directed by Frank Tashlin, his first short following his return to Termite Terrace in 1943, having left for a five-year stint at Disney and Screen Gems studios.The cartoon centers around Porky Pig and Daffy Duck's attempts to escape the Broken Arms Hotel manager without paying their bill, Daffy having gambled away all their money in a game of craps. Despite numerous methods to elude the hotel manager (from using the elevator, sending the manager down a large spiral staircase, or going out of the window), he eventually gets the upper hand and locks them up in their hotel room until they pay up.This is marked as the only cameo appearance from Bugs Bunny in a black and white Looney Tunes short. | |

All Men Are Perverts | |
| Porky Pig's Feat / int_129749df | comment |
All Men Are Perverts: When sliding down bedsheets to get out of the hotel, Daffy stops to look and whistle at an image of a pin-up girl (which, if he hadn't, might have been enough time for them to prevent the manager setting fire to Porky's feet). And when Porky and Daffy both go back up the sheets (the results of the manager secretly lighting matches on Porky's feet and Daffy running up to not get hit), Daffy again stops to whistle at the image. | |

Missing Steps Plan | |
| Porky Pig's Feat / int_30e6200f | comment |
Missing Steps Plan: The manager imprisons Daffy and Porky in their hotel room until they can pay their bill, with the end of the short showing that he's kept them trapped there for months. A glaring issue with the manager's plan that isn't acknowledged in the short is that the duo have no way of obtaining money to earn their freedom and the manager is losing money by keeping the room unavailable to be rented out to other customers. | |

Never Recycle Your Schemes | |
| Porky Pig's Feat / int_35129b4f | comment |
Never Recycle Your Schemes: Averted. Daffy pulls the rug from under the hotel manager, causing him to fall down the stairs, screaming. However, he quickly runs back up, causing Daffy and Porky to run into their hotel rooms and Daffy to once again pull the rug. They hear the manager making the same screaming sounds he made previously, but it turns out he didn't actually fall - his painful reactions were just a ploy to make them think they had succeeded again. | |

| Porky Pig's Feat / int_35543514 | comment |
Just Eat Gilligan: Porky and Daffy are broke and can't leave the hotel to get a job to earn the money they need to pay the bill, because the manager won't let them leave until they've paid the bill. The problem could have been solved much quicker if the manager had either: Let them leave to get the money they owed him, then called the police if he wasn't paid within a certain timeframe. Made them Work Off the Debt. | |

Grey-and-Grey Morality: The Broken Arms Hotel manager is painted as something of a greedy Jerkass who orders ridiculous prices for his rooms (including charging heavily for luxuries such as "Goodwill", "Sunshine" and "Air for breathing"), however Daffy and Porky have no intent on paying any fee and go to increasingly violent measures to leave the hotel free of charge. | |

Escalating War: Compared to most Looney Tunes shorts which were known for lopsided fares, both sides take turns trading blows throughout the short, the only consistency is that, no matter what the duo throw at the hotel manager, he still always outfoxes their attempts to escape the hotel. | |

Standard Snippet: This was the first cartoon to utilize Raymond Scott's music. First, "The Penguin" is heard when Porky and Daffy make a run for the elevator. Then, the iconic "Powerhouse" is played when the manager attempts to open the locked door, before being tossed down the stairs. Also, the Dubin-Warren song "Latin Quarter" plays when Porky reads the bill, and after Daffy loses his money gambling, he saunters out of the elevator to "Blues in the Night" (aka "My mama dun tol' me, when I was in kneepants...") | |

My Card: After being insulted by Daffy, the manager presents him with his card. Daffy takes a hole puncher and makes it into a paper doll chain, saying "You've had your coffee ration for the week, Robespierre." note a reference to the food rationing program then in effect due to World War II He then presents the manager with his own card, a sheet of flypaper which he sticks to his face. Later on, he takes it back. | |

Catch-22 Dilemma | |
| Porky Pig's Feat / int_ba8b13ad | comment |
Catch-22 Dilemma: After Daffy loses the last of the money in a craps game, Porky and Daffy still have a massive bill to pay off, which they can't because they're confined to their hotel room. Meanwhile, as long as Porky and Daffy are confined to their room (and unable to go out and get jobs), the manager won't be receiving any money from Porky and Daffy, and he'll still have an unpaid bill on his hands and one less room to rent out to paying customers. | |

Hope Spot: In the last scene Porky and Daffy decide to call Bugs Bunny for advice, since he's usually able to get out of inescapable dilemmas. Bugs asks them if they tried several specific tactics, they say they did, then the door next to the phone opens with Bugs Bunny locked up in chains, observing "Ahh, don't work, do they?" | |

Shout-Out | |
| Porky Pig's Feat / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The plot where Porky and Daffy are trapped in a hotel room until they can pay their hotel bill resembles the Marx Brothers' 1938 film Room Service, where the Marxes are stuck in a hotel room until they can pay their outstanding hotel bill. When Daffy ends up scrunching the manager's face, he compares him to a Dick Tracy character, specifically, Pruneface. When the manager rapidly babbles the bill, Daffy replies, "SOLD TO AN AMERICAN!!!", a reference to the radio ads for the American Tobacco Company. | |

Writers Cannot Do Math: Porky reads the hotel bill which shows a total of $152.50. A second look and some quick adding shows that the total should be $175.50. | |

Pulling the Rug Out: When the manager tries to knock the door down, Porky and Daffy pull on the rug, causing the manager to fall down the staircase. They later try it a second time, but the manager is onto them and pretends to be falling to lure them out. | |

Determinator: The hotel manager takes every trick Daffy and Porky can pull and still keeps them in the hotel until they pay their fee. It is later revealed his persistence foiled even Bugs Bunny after he tried to avoid paying. | |

Easily Forgiven | |
| Porky Pig's Feat / int_f36c4f98 | comment |
Easily Forgiven: Daffy loses their money in a game of dice and Daffy clearly tries to get out of them paying the bill. While Porky does not know why, he does go along with Daffy's plan to escape without paying, never questioning or getting mad at Daffy for losing the money to pay the bill. | |
