Season 2 episode 4 of Road Runner & Coyote is named Hopalong Casualty. The episode follows the same theme of the two animal characters engaging in their usual chase. In this episode, Coyote employs various tactics to catch Road Runner, but each attempt backfires, leaving him with multiple injuries.

The episode begins with Coyote devising a new plan to capture Road Runner. He constructs a catapult using rubber bands and a tree branch and places a brick with a sign that reads "Free Food" on it. Coyote hopes to entice Road Runner to step on the brick, sending him flying towards the catapult, and then trap him. However, Road Runner spots the trap and dodges the brick, making Coyote fly into the air and land face-first into a cactus.

Undeterred, Coyote decides to try another method to capture Road Runner. He disguises himself as a succulent plant, believing that Road Runner will come close to investigate the new item in the desert. Coyote waits patiently for Road Runner, but his cover is blown when he sneezes and reveals himself. Road Runner speeds away, leaving Coyote behind yet again.

Coyote becomes more and more desperate to capture Road Runner and comes up with one last idea. He climbs into his rocket, which he has parked inside a cave, to beat Road Runner to the other side of the mountain. However, the rocket malfunctions and shoots Coyote out of the cave and across the desert at an incredible speed. Coyote realizes he is headed straight for a canyon and tries to steer his rocket, but it's too late.

Meanwhile, Road Runner is running along the side of the canyon, minding his business when he sees Coyote whizzing past him in the rocket. Road Runner, always feeling responsible for Coyote's well-being, quickly jumps into action, grabbing onto the back of the rocket to prevent it from crashing.

The rest of the episode follows the rocket and the characters as they journey through the desert, with Coyote attempting to steer the rocket towards Road Runner, who is holding on for dear life. Coyote's repeated attempts to catch Road Runner result in multiple accidents, leaving him with bruises and bumps by the end of the episode.

The episode concludes with Coyote being catapulted into the distance, exhausted, and defeated. Meanwhile, Road Runner speeds off into the horizon, unscathed, and having successfully evaded Coyote once again.

In summary, Road Runner & Coyote season 2 episode 4, Hopalong Casualty, follows the usual theme of the animated series of the Road Runner outrunning Coyote. The episode is full of unexpected twists and turns, as Coyote tries repeatedly to catch Road Runner, but ends up injuring himself instead.
