In a stereotypical | In a stereotypical 1947 cartoon, ''[[Somethin's Cookin']]'', [[Roger Rabbit]] messes up (he sees birds instead of seeing stars). Detective [[Eddie Valiant]] watches him blow his lines, and R.K. Maroon, Roger's boss, tells Eddie that he thinks Roger's wife, [[Jessica Rabbit]], has been making Roger suspicious that she is cheating on him. He sends Eddie to figure out if Jessica had been cheating, to which Eddie replies he will not work with Toons. (A Toon killed Eddie's brother.) R.K. convinces Eddie, and he finds out that Jessica has been playing patty-cake---literally---with Marvin Acme, the owner of Toontown. | ||
Eddie takes a few pictures of the patty-cake game and shows them to Roger. Roger gets drunk and storms off, declaring that him and Jessica will be happy no matter what. Heartbroken, Roger sits outside of the Acme Factory crying, wile looking at pictures of him and Jessica. The next day, Eddie finds out that Marvin has been killed by a safe dropped on his head.

Roger gets drunk and storms off, declaring that him and Jessica will be happy no matter what. Heartbroken, Roger sits outside of the Acme Factory crying, wile looking at pictures of him and Jessica. The next day, Eddie finds out that Marvin has been killed by a safe dropped on his head. Roger is the prime suspect, according to [[Judge Doom]], the Judge of Toontown. Doom says that when he catches Roger, he will kill him using the Dip, the only thing capable of killing a cartoon character. Doom has enlisted the help of the [[Toon Patrol]], a gang of weasels named [[Smartass]], [[Stupid]], [[Psycho]], [[Greasy]], and [[Wheezy]], to capture Roger. | ||
Eddie goes home and recieves a tip from Roger's co-star, [[Baby Herman]], that Roger did not kill Marvin. He said that whoever ''did'' kill him, however, must have been after Marvin's will, which supposedly left Toontown to the Toons. Without it, anyone could destroy Toontown. Eddie discovers Roger in his room, pleading innocent. Eddie decides to take his case, only because whoever set Roger up was also making Eddie look bad. He hides Roger in a bar, only to have Doom find him the next day. Now, Doom and the Patrol are after both Eddie ''and'' Roger. | Eddie goes home and recieves a tip from Roger's co-star, [[Baby Herman]], that Roger did not kill Marvin.

Roger comes by Benny, and Benny finds the strength to get up and drive Roger to where Doom is holding Eddie and Jessica. Roger grabs a gun and tells Benny to call the cops. Doom reveals that he is the boss of Cloverleaf, and that he will dip Toontown off the face of earth and put a freeway in it's place. Roger then comes and starts threatening Doom with a gun, until Greasy drops a pile of bricks on him. He sees stars, and becomes happy because he couldn't see stars at the beginning of the movie. Doom has Roger and Jessica tied up, and leaves the weasels alone to dip Roger and Jessica with a dip cannon. Eddie gets an idea and makes the weasels laugh themselves to death, except for Smartass, who falls in a pool of dip. | Roger comes by Benny, and Benny finds the strength to get up and drive Roger to where Doom is holding Eddie and Jessica.

Eddie then runs over Doom with a steamroller, but Doom survives, because he was a Toon. But not just ''any'' Toon---he killed Eddie's brother! After a long fight, Eddie reversed the dip cannon and fires all the dip left in the world at Doom, killing him. He lets Roger and Jessica down just as the cops show up, as well as a bunch of famous cartoon characters. Roger is proven innocent, and Toontown now belongs to the Toons! Anyone sings "Smile, Darn Ya, Smile" as [[Porky Pig]] closes the movie with his famous "Th-th-tha-th-th-th-that-th-that`s all, folks!" and [[Tinkerbell]] flies by. | ||
