- After Yosemite Sam builds his house over Bugs Bunny's rabbit hole, the two of them try to determine who owns the land through the courts and other less legal means.
- Bugs is residing in his hole, playing a guitar and singing "Home on the Range". As he finishes, a group of construction workers suddenly begin building a home over his hole. They eventually finish, and the occupant, Yosemite Sam, moves in. His banjo playing annoys Bugs, who saws a hole in the floor and tries to exit. It turns out that a bearskin rug is right over the hole, and Bugs believes he is being attacked as does Sam, who shoots at the rug angrily, saying, "Playing possum for 20 years! That'll learn ya!"
Bugs thanks Sam for rescuing him, but Sam orders him to get out, not listening to Bugs' protests. Sam fires his pistols at Bugs, forcing him to leave. Bugs yells to Sam that he'll sue and take his case to "the highest court in the country". He keeps his promise, choosing a court 6,723 feet above sea level. The exhausted Bugs quips on his way in, "I should have picked a lower court."
The judge hears the case out, and rules that Sam and Bugs will share the property. If one of them dies, the surviving member inherits the property. Sam immediately begins plotting to kill Bugs, first by hitting him with a mallet while he sleeps. This is unsuccessful, as Bugs takes the mallet and hits him with it instead.
The next morning, Sam prepares carrot juice for him and Bugs. He puts poison in Bugs' drink and offers it to him. Bugs instead spins the table around, causing the two glasses to rotate around with no idea of which one is which. Sam stops the table, and forces Bugs to drink at gunpoint. However, Bugs demands that Sam drink his own juice first. Sam agrees, and the two drink their juice. When Bugs experiences no ill effects, Sam realizes he has drunk the poisoned juice, and rockets through the roof, crashing and exploding on the desert floor.
Sam makes one last attempt to kill Bugs after he dives into his hole by stuffing an endless amount of explosives down the hole. However, Bugs catches the explosives and puts them under the house's floor instead. The resulting explosion leaves Bugs and his home unharmed, but causes Sam's house to rocket into the sky. Sam, who is still inside, stumbles out and notices this. He is shocked and happy at the same time, remarking, "I've got a cabin in the sky!" Iris out.
