 A mystical forested area with a purple hue is seen with insects flying around in the background. A white rabbit hops into frame, it's seen observing it's surroundings, it then goes to a nearby berry bush and starts nibbling at the berries. A pair of red eyes are seen in a different bush, we eventually go the perspective of the creature in the bush. It eventually attacks the rabbit, but before we see any bloodshed, it cuts to the bush the rabbit was at with leaves falling down. We zoom out of this shot to see a pair of feet enter the shot. We then zoom to the figure and pan up it's body, we stop the figure's head, who happens to be wearing goggles. A shot of the figure's entire body is shown, the creature that attacked the rabbit which turns out to be a fox appears into frame with the rabbit in it's mouth and eventually crawls up the figure's back and wraps itself around the neck of the figure. ''The figure takes the rabbit out of the fox's mouth and analyses it. He then pets the fox on his neck and leaves the area.'' CUT: A cabin in a forested area, the hunter is seen going past to a river next to it. We then cut to him at the river, who then takes the rabbit out of the fox's mouth and starts cleaning the rabbit's carcass. CUT: Inside of the cabin, the hunter is seen sitting next to a huge stew pot cooking what is supposedly rabbit stew. He is then seen taking a bowl and puts some of the stew in it and starts eating it. CUT: The exterior of the cabin, with the fox seen keeping watch. The opening credits run over this shot.
