2_Looney Tunes: Back in Action
Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck are up to their feuding ways again. Tired of playing
second fiddle to Bugs, Daffy has decided to leave the Studio for good. He is
aided by Warner Bros.' humor impaired Vice President of Comedy, Kate Houghton,
who releases him from his contract and instructs WB security guard/aspiring

sidekick without a hero, the duck decides to ally himself with DJ, whether he
likes it or not. Consequently, Daffy is on the scene when DJ discovers that his
famous movie star father was Damian Drake, known for playing suave international
spies onscreen, is actually a suave international spy in real life--and has been
kidnapped by the evil insane nerdy, prancing villain known as Mr. Chairman of
the equally nefarious Acme Corporation. It seems that Damian knows the
whereabouts of the mysterious magical and powerful Blue Monkey Diamond
