Porky wants to be a writer, but can't think of anything to write about. Bugs and Cicero arrange for actors to give Porky a scare when he walks along the waterfront, but the actors back out. In a random meeting, Porky is given a mysterious pouch by a swami who is pursued by a sword-wielding count. After defeating the count, Porky finds that the pouch contains a salt that turns things to gold. Bugs decides to hide the gold salt in a salt shaker, but Petunia borrows it for her hamburger stand, resulting in gold hamburgers.
