Storyline
Daffy Duck is a stow-away on a ship commanded by a portly, Captain Bligh-like figure, who orders his First Mate, a parrot named Mr. Tristan, to locate any stowaways aboard his ship and to provide a rope to hang the unwanted passengers. Daffy is found and sentenced to hang but offers to entertain the Captain with magic if the Captain will spare his life. The Captain agrees to this proposition, but Daffy is not a magician, and each of his attempted tricks fail, destroying the Captain's precious watch and exploding the ship's powder magazine. Written by Kevin McCorry <mmccorry@nb.sympatico.ca>

A good script by David Detlige and a brisk pace of dialogue manages to overcome the barebones artwork in this late Looney Tunes.
I am not a fan of Robert McKimson, a competent cartoon director who was, I feel, the least of Termite Terrace's assorted geniuses. Instead of moving to subjects that were suitable to an increasingly restricted budget, he continued to knock out works whose poverty demonstrated that Warner Brothers' animation department did not have the money to make the cartoons it had in the 1930s and 1940s. But this story of Daffy trying to con his passage by doing magic tricks is pretty good. Mel Blanc's voice work is as good as ever and his imitation of Charles Laughton's voice -- straight out of the 1934 version of MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY -- is perfect.
