IMHO, this is one of Bugs Bunny's best cartoon shorts.
Bugs is tunneling underground on his way to visit his cousin, when he bumps hid head on a huge rock (maybe he should have taken that left turn in Albuquerque,
).
Upon discovering the rock to be solid gold, Bugs is ecstatic, but is soon tricked out of his treasure by an outlaw named Nasty Canasta.
Six months later, Canasta has turned his ill-gotten gains into a (crooked) gambling casino in San Francisco.
Bugs appears, disguised as a naive country boy, and with his shrewd intelligence (and a little dumb luck), manages to completely ruin Canasta's business, and the latter shoots himself in the belief that the revolver would yield gold coins (as it did for Bugs).
Ant the end, Bugs breaks the fourth wall and speaks the last line: "The moral of the story is: 'Don't try to take no 18 karats from no rabbit!' ".
I generally favor Bugs Bunny cartoons where his adversaries are other than the dim-witted Elmer Fudd, the hot-headed Yosemite Sam, or the smugly supercilious Daffy Duck.
