The cartoon opens with the RoadRunner (Accelerati Incredibilus) being chased by the Coyote (Carnivorous Vulgaris), the action pausing while these taxon captions are displayed. Wile E. chases after the RoadRunner with a knife and fork, striking and missing, and sticking the utensils into the road as the RoadRunner accelerates away. He slumps on the ground and soon comes up with a new plan.
