Three Bears, afflicted by hunger pangs, devise a scheme to entice Goldilocks using carrot soup as bait due to their depleted porridge supply. Subsequently, they orchestrate a feigned departure, only to lurk within their domicile, anticipating Goldilocks's arrival. The savory aroma emanating from the simmering soup captivates Bugs Bunny, leading him into the Bears' abode, unwittingly assuming the role of the traditional trespasser in the Goldilocks and the Three Bears fable.
Bugs partakes of the Bears' culinary offering, prompting their attempted assault thwarted by Bugs's near detection. Following a brief respite, Bugs reclines in Junior's bed, precipitating the Bears' enactment of the Goldilocks tale culminating in a futile pursuit as Bugs eludes capture. Mama Bear, stirred by Bugs's flattery, momentarily suspends aggression, succumbing to infatuation and pursuing amorous overtures.
In his endeavor to evade Mama Bear's advances, Bugs traverses various chambers, encountering Mama Bear in progressively alluring guises, only to find himself ensnared in his own rabbit hole. Mama Bear, seizing the opportunity, indulges in affectionate exchanges with Bugs, culminating in a flurry of unseen embraces. Bugs emerges disheveled, bearing evidence of their encounter, and flees into the distance screaming, leaving Mama Bear adorned with crimson lipstick, basking in the afterglow of their liaison.
Mel Blanc provides the voices of Bugs and Papa Bear (for the latter using a raucous voice similar to Yosemite Sam only a little higher-pitched). Mama Bear is voiced by Bea Benaderet, while Kent Rogers voiced dim-witted Junior. The cartoon was released four months before Rogers' death in a crash during a training flight in Pensacola, Florida, while he was in the United States Navy during World War II; Stan Freberg would replace Rogers in future installments in the series.
