Elmer likes it at first, but Daffy pushes a button and Elmer receives an aggressive massage, which dazes him. Daffy then guides Elmer to a massaging chair. Elmer sees that his house is different and asks Daffy what he's done, but Daffy quickly pushes a button and a machine removes Elmer's hat and coat. Daffy greets Elmer at the front door and welcomes him to his new future-antic push button home. Later that day, Elmer hitches a ride in a van from Duluth and returns home. Despite Elmer's protests that he has his own car, he is placed on a non-stop bus to Duluth. Elmer tries to speak but is repeatedly interrupted by Daffy, who grabs Elmer by the arm and escorts him to a bus to take him to the office. Daffy visits Elmer Fudd at his house as he is preparing to leave for work, and says that Acme has authorized him to install, at no cost, a complete line of ultra-modern automatic household appliances (on a 10-day free trial). Reprising a salesman role that Daffy previously played in Daffy Dilly (1948), The Stupor Salesman (1948) and Fool Coverage (1952), Design for Leaving opens with Daffy as a fast-talking door-to-door salesman from the Acme Future-Antic Push-Button Home of Tomorrow Household Appliance Company, Inc.
