Timothy Bateson stars as a timorous bank clerk who fancies himself a brilliant scientist. Experimenting with alchemy in his spare time, Bateson stumbles across a method of manufacturing gold. Naturally, a group of unscrupulous businessmen gets wind of Bateson's marvelous discovery, and do their best (or worst) to appropriate it for themselves. Before the picture is over, the nervous clerk is obliged to rescue his kidnaped girlfriend Maureen Beck. Featured in the cast of The Golden Rabbit is Willoughby Goddard, whom 1950s TV addicts will remember as Gessler on the weekly series William Tell.
