Yosemite Sam dies after being crushed by a falling safe during his evil scheme to matrimonially divest a widow of her money- and he goes to hell, where the devil promises to release Sam's spirit and give to Sam a new lease on life, provided that Sam bring to the devil a certain rabbit whom the devil has been trying for a long time to entrap in Hades. Sam is returned to Earth on a movie set, where a dictatorial director, who looks and talks like Emperor Nero, orders stagehand Sam to find a victim to feed to a hoard of lions. Sam dies again when he is feasted upon by the lions, and the devil allocates to him one more miscarried chance to catch the bunny, as a homeowner in the American Western frontier.
