In an Arabian palace, a band called Timbuk Two Plus 3 fails to impress the Sultan and ends up in a crocodile pit. An Elvis-like musician suffers the same fate. Bugs Bunny, intending to go to Perth Amboy but getting lost, is ordered to entertain the Sultan. Bugs recounts his adventures, including outsmarting a bull, a monster named Rudolph, and Yosemite Sam. It is later revealed that the Sultan is actually Yosemite Sam himself. Bugs tricks Sam into falling into the crocodile pit and escapes, mocking Sam's misfortune.
Hare-Abian Nights recycles footage from Bully for Bugs (1953), Water, Water Every Hare (1952) and Sahara Hare (1955).
