After a brief second of shaking it, Herman swallows the rattle, prompting Roger to scream and call 911 and to rush the baby to the emergency room. Roger is overcome with guilt when he visits, but quickly realizes Herman wants to potable from a milk bottle in the room; after Roger burps Herman, he hiccups the rattle, but finds, that in Roger'south joyous commemoration he accidentally swallows it, causing Baby Herman to become upset he lost his toy. Roger begins to dance, and has his hips rattling with the toy and giving Infant Herman some amusement, but is stunned when a doctor bursts in and mistakes Roger for Baby Herman and preps him for emergency surgery.
While Roger is gone, Herman spies Jessica Rabbit pushing a cart of milk bottles and gives chase, somewhen following a delinquent milk bottle into the emergency room where Roger is strapped to the table while the surgeons had disappeared for a tiffin break. Herman mistakes a large surgical laser for a canteen and climbs upwardly onto it, nigh dissecting Roger in the process. The laser detaches itself from the ceiling and flings a tabular array of scalpels and hypodermic needles at Roger, who avoids them, but is electrocuted in the process. The light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation flies around the room and lodges itself under Roger'south stretcher and sends him and Herman both ejecting from the emergency room and causing Roger to gag upwardly the rattle, and when Baby Herman to once again swallow it before crashing into a wheelchair, they then fly down the hall and into an open elevator shaft due to wet floors causing the wheelchair they landed on to skid out of control. Baby Herman's diaper parachutes him safely to a floor while Roger ends up getting crushed by an elevator where Stan Lee is in while trying to catch Herman. Somewhen they end up in a room with piles of gas pumps which are ignited and ship them the pair launching miles into the air. As they fall, Herman coughs upwards the rattle, and causes Roger to swallow information technology again. As they crash dorsum into the hospital, Roger crashes through several floors before landing smack down on the receptionist floor in the hospital. Equally he recovers, Babe Herman lands on Roger, causing him to cough up the rattle again, finally ending their adventure. Simply when Roger'south celebration is short lived when he sees the neb for their rampant destruction and faints that he didn't win again, Herman then crawls over to the rattle and as the screen fades to black in that location is a gulping sound as he over again swallows the rattle.
During the stop credits, however, Herman spits the rattle out, and angrily threatens more than trouble if he has to swallow the rattle once again. After attempting to cool Baby Herman down, Roger is greeted by Jessica who seductively suggests they get home and play a footling patty cake, in which a love stricken Roger coos as they walk off.

She also reminds him not to mess it up once again. Roger reluctantly watches Baby Herman. Baby Herman loses his red airship and bursts into tears when Roger goes to go him a new i. Before he returns, even so, Baby Herman sees another red airship at a dart game and goes to try to get information technology. When Roger comes back to give Baby Herman his airship, he finds that he is gone, and sets off equally the chase begins. Kickoff, Baby Herman finds himself following the balloon into a field occupied by a grazing balderdash. Roger presently follows the youngster and falls in bull dung. Babe Herman walks directly underneath the bull. He notices a round balloon-similar object and grasps it; unknown to him, it is in fact the bull's scrotum. The grazing creature snaps. Roger picks up Baby Herman but just happens to be looking the bull in the eyes. The beast hurls Roger and Baby Herman into the air, sending them flying out of the field, and causing the 2 to country crashing into a roller coaster railroad vehicle which is traveling slowly up.
In the side by side stage of this brusk, the railroad vehicle continues to climb a tall colina in the track. The 2 attain the top of the drop which is exaggerated to reach beyond the clouds and into infinite. Roger looks downwardly and sees the world. Moments later the carriage drops down thousands of meters. The speed of the driblet is maintained throughout the residue of the chase. After a few twist and turns (in the track) a shot of Jessica Rabbit appears, where she is tied downwardly to the tracks, unable to move. She calls out to be saved before Roger and Baby Herman'south carriage crushes her. Every bit the cart draws near, it topples over and fortunately bounces over Jessica, avoiding her completely. The camera moves forth and abreast her appears Stan Lee for a quick 1-liner. The story then continues. Roger grasps onto Baby Herman, tumbling and losing their carriage, leaving Roger sliding forth the tracks with his feet, gradually gaining friction causing his feet to catch fire. The tracks run across a dark tunnel and then stumbles across a 'incorrect way sign'. Finally Herman and Roger crash through the sign and into a existent-life filming studio, a direct reference to the reality/cartoon crossover in the feature motion-picture show when Roger ruins the pic and refuses to go back to exercise the whole scene again.

Trouble begins when Baby Herman wanders off into the dangers of the wood and Roger has to go and save him, leading to multiple calamities; such as Roger panicking at the sight of a caterpillar and spraying so much insecticide (named Mink-Off) that many copse dice. Later, when Roger reads the diet on the box, Baby Herman follows a bee upwards to a beehive and goes to go some honey when Roger tries to save him. The beehive falls on Roger'southward head, causing him to go stung multiple times. The bees proceed to chase him, so Roger runs into a lake, where he panics at the sight of a shark's dorsal fin (which is actually controlled past Droopy Domestic dog).
Later, Baby Herman follows a beaver (mistaking him for a dog), and is followed by Roger, who chases after them. Baby Herman follows the beaver upwards a pile of logs, and is chased past Roger, who follows, simply to take the log that Baby Herman and the beaver are on taken to the sawmill. This ends up with Roger existence shredded by a sawmill (that of which the issue is 13 tiny Rogers, which then bring together again into a regular-sized Roger, who follows Infant Herman (withal following the beaver) onto a conveyor belt with logs). It ends upwardly with the logs being thrown downwardly a log flume, eventually landing in a river. The log, Roger, Baby Herman, and the beaver are on, crashes into a bear, who as well ends up on the log. Then the 4 fall off a waterfall. Roger's head gets stuck in a twig sticking out of the waterfall, and when he catches Babe Herman (holding on to the beaver), the bear grabs onto Roger'south legs. The combined weight rebounds, sending all four flying, landing on a large boulder.
The boulder proceeds to gyre downwardly a hill, knocking over a tree body (with the same sound effects as a bowling pin), and and then flying off a cliff. Eventually, Roger, the bear, the log, the beaver, the boulder, and Baby Herman all land on top of Old Anticipated Geyser in that guild. So, Old Predictable Geyser erupts, sending Roger, Herman, the Bear, the Beaver, the boulder and the log flying out of the studio, passing the Hollywood sign. The group flies over one-half of the country all the way to Mountain Rushmore and they end up crashing into the mountain, destroying all the carving of the presidents. Anybody is battered and beaten (except for Roger); as they walk away, Baby Herman yells at Roger for destroying a "national monument." Roger retorts that information technology'south "non equally if information technology's the terminate of the world," simply then sticks a US flag (made of his clothes) in the footing which punctures the World, making it deflate and accident away like a airship.
