Water, Water Every Hare is a Looney Tunes cartoon made in 1952 featuring Bugs Bunny and Gossamer.

[edit] Plot

Much like in Hair-Raising Hare, Bugs finds himself trapped in the castle of an "evil scientist", who this time is a caricature of Boris Karloff and needs the rabbit's brain to complete an experiment. When Bugs makes a run for it, a big orange monster named 'Rudolph' (Gossamer) is sent out to retrieve him. Bugs keeps running while he is frightened until a door on the floor opens and a rock falls down there and there are crocodiles swimming around. While he is walking backwards and praying to jump over the crocodiles, he bumps into Rudolph. Bugs comes up with an idea and gave him a messy hair style, and gets some dynamite sticks and placed it on his hair. Then he ran to a chemical room, and when it exploded, Rudolph gets furious and goes to the chemical room. Then Bugs sees vanishing fluid and he puts it on himself. Bugs gets a trash can and dumps it on Rudolph .Then he gets a mallet and hits the trash can causing it to shake, and takes the rug Rudolph was standing on, causing him to fall on his bottom. Bugs gets the reducing oil and puts it on Rudolph. Then Rudolph shrinks. He dresses up and kicks a mouse out of his mousehole and closes the door and puts up sign that says I QUIT! And the mouse says "I quit too!" Bugs eats a carrot until the mad scientist puts hare restorer on Bugs. Then he throws the ax and Bugs ducks and ether gas got on both of them. The scientist and Bugs run down the stairs, Bugs tripped the scientist and the scientist fell asleep, and Bugs runs slowly to the stream which lead Bugs home and slept until he woke up and found out there was water in his hole, and said that must have been a nightmare. Then mini Rudolph appears on a tiny rowboat and says Oh yeah, that's what you think!.

[edit] Trivia

The cartoon's title is likely a reference to the line "Water, water, everywhere / Nor any drop to drink" from Samuel Taylor Coleridge's poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner.
