The episode revolves around Daffy Duck and his newfound career as a lawyer, which he decides to pursue after watching a courtroom drama on TV. Daffy is determined to become a successful attorney, despite having no legal education, training, or experience.
The episode begins with Daffy watching a legal drama on television, where he is fascinated by the work of a defense attorney. Inspired by what he sees, Daffy decides to become a lawyer himself, despite not having any formal education or training in the field. He starts carrying a briefcase around the house, dressing up in a suit, and reading law books, determined to become a success in the field.
Daffy's first case is that of Porky Pig, who has been given a parking ticket for parking his car in a no-parking zone. Daffy takes on the case, determined to win it for Porky. He starts studying the traffic regulations of the city, and comes up with a plan to argue in favor of Porky. However, his argument turns out to be a complete disaster, and he ends up getting Porky a much higher fine than what he got originally.
Meanwhile, Bugs Bunny is having trouble at work, as he cannot seem to make any progress on his latest project. He seeks the help of Lola Bunny, who advises him to take a break and relax for a while. Bugs agrees, and decides to go fishing for the day. Daffy, who is frustrated by his failed attempt at being a lawyer, decides to join Bugs on his fishing trip.
The two go fishing and start catching some fish. However, Daffy cannot stop thinking about his failed case, and continues to talk about it. Bugs tries to make him understand that he should not be so hard on himself, and that he should learn from his mistakes and move on. Daffy eventually realizes that he should not have taken on a case without any prior experience or knowledge of the law.
When the two return home, Daffy decides to give up his career as a lawyer. However, a surprise visitor arrives at their doorstep - it is none other than the judge who presided over Porky's case. The judge congratulates Daffy on his argument, which he claims was so bad that he decided to give Porky a reduced fine out of pity. The judge suggests that Daffy has a natural talent for law, and that he should attend law school to hone his skills.
Daffy is thrilled by the suggestion, and starts preparing for his law school applications. The episode ends with Daffy having set his sights on becoming a successful lawyer, and Bugs proud of his friend for never giving up on his dreams.
