Robert Clampett directed this very much wartime short where not only doesn't Bugs triumph over a mischievous gremlin, but the ending is a cop-out.  Still, it's mildly amusing, and a reminder that when this aired on television in the 1970s, we Gen-X kids (and of course our Baby Boom predecessors) were expected to get jokes that were well before our time, like "It ain't Vendell Villkie!"

(This is on a collection of eight cartoons, alphabetized under "Bugs" of course.)
