Daffy's Inn Trouble is a 1961 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes theatrical cartoon directed by Robert McKimson and written by David Detiege.[1] The short was released on September 23, 1961, and stars Daffy Duck and Porky Pig.[2]
In the film, Daffy and Porky own rival hotels in the western frontier.
On the western frontier, Daffy Duck and Porky Pig toil in the hotel industry. Disgruntled with his job, Daffy quits when Porky gifts him a broom. Daffy starts his own hotel across from Porky's, but struggles to attract guests despite flashy signs. After a failed robbery at his hotel, Daffy tries to compete with Porky's successful vaudeville show by impersonating a woman. His ruse fails, leading him to join forces with Porky, who refuses. In a botched attempt to intimidate Porky, Daffy accidentally destroys his own hotel.
Seeing Porky's success due to an oil discovery beneath his hotel, Daffy tries to sabotage it with explosives but inadvertently helps Porky strike it rich. Porky relocates his hotel to a better site, offering Daffy a job. Accepting, Daffy is tasked with cleaning up, symbolized by a closet full of brooms. Daffy acknowledges Porky's resilience and determination, realizing that success comes not from deception but hard work and perseverance.
