Late at night in a bookshop, the characters of books come to life. From a “Looney Tunes” comic book leaps Daffy Duck, who assumes the guise of a zoot-suiter. Hip-cat Daffy warns the title character of “Little Red Riding Hood” about the Big Bad Wolf, and a chase begins when the wolf sets his sights and appetite on the duck.
After the wolf has been dispatched to “Dante’s Inferno,” the store’s characters celebrate in a jam session and dance... only to have the angry wolf complain from Hades, “Stop that dancing up there!!!... [and then, in a Joe Besser voice]... you sillies."
