1

The Prize Pest is a 1951 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon directed by Robert McKimson, and written by Tedd Pierce. The cartoon was released on December 22, 1951, and stars Daffy Duck and Porky Pig.

Plot

After winning a prize from a radio show, Porky Pig receives an unexpected house guest — Daffy Duck — who refuses to leave. Daffy claims to have a split personality, turning sweet when treated kindly and monstrous when mistreated. Falling for Daffy's ruse, Porky agrees to serve him, but secretly plans to call the authorities. Daffy, however, outsmarts Porky by impersonating the phone. When Porky tries to scare Daffy out of the house by dressing up as a monster, Daffy's reaction is so extreme that he flees, hiding back in the gift box he arrived in. In a twist, Porky catches sight of himself in the mirror wearing the monster costume and frightens himself, realizing he is just as cowardly as he accused Daffy of being.
