Riff Raffy Daffy is a 1948 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon directed by Arthur Davis.[1] The cartoon was released on November 27, 1948, and stars Daffy Duck and Porky Pig.[2]

Plot

In a city park, Daffy Duck faces eviction from patrol officer Porky Pig for violating vagrancy laws. Desperate for shelter on a cold night, Daffy sneaks into a department store's window display, sparking a silent battle with Porky separated by glass. Daffy cleverly outwits Porky using tricks and distractions, but Porky eventually knocks him unconscious. Feeling guilty, Porky offers sympathy, recognizing Daffy's plight, and allows him to stay in the store, likening their situations as parents to wind-up toy offspring.
