Bunny hides in a clump of bushes, but Johnson spies him and fires. The rabbit is wounded. So is a girl who has been sketching on the other side of the bushes. When Johnson, holding the wounded rabbit triumphantly aloft comes bounding through the thicket, the girl forgets her own slight wound. She scolds and pleads with Johnson to give her the rabbit, which he does. After scolding Johnson roundly for what she calls his brutality, the girl takes the rabbit home and dresses its wounds. The brutality of man strikes the girl so forcibly that she is inspired to paint a picture on the subject, and calls it "The Brute." The tenderness of the girl in pleading for the rabbit's life so impresses Johnson that he is also inspired to paint a picture, and in return calls his canvas "The Appeal." Later, both paintings are hung at the same exhibition, where Johnson meets the girl. Although at first his efforts to gain her friendship are repulsed, he eventually wins out, and the rabbit, which the girl has made a pet, is taken to the spot of the event, and being freed, returns to his native woods.
