Bugs is the Masked Marauder, a carrot thief whom Brooklyn's Red Hot Ryder must try to bring to justice.

[instrumental music]

(male narrator)
Our story, begins
when the west was young.

And early pioneers settled down
to never more roam.

And made the sand
Fernando valley their home.

[woman screaming]

[gunfire]

'The Masked Marauder,
strikes again!'

- 'There he goes!'
- 'Catch him!'

(female #1)
- He punched me.
- Stop him.

- 'Around that corner.'
- 'He got away with everything''



(male #2)
'What did he get?
All the money from the bank?'

(male #3)
'No! All the carrots,
from our victory garden.'

(male #3)
'The side winding
bush whacker!'

The Masked Marauder,
strikes again!

How long will
this fair-weather fiend

The Masked Marauder,
be allowed to roam at will?

Dragging in the mud, the name
of justice and decency.

There is one man..

...and he alone can and will
challenge and destroy

the name and person
of the Masked Marauder.

Yes, one man
and one man only.

Who can single-handed
rid us of this rodent.

Out of the West..

...Brooklyn's famous
fighting cowboy
