Tease for Two is a Looney Tunes cartoon animated short starring Daffy Duck and the Goofy Gophers (in their final appearance). Released August 28, 1965, the cartoon is directed by Robert McKimson. The voices were performed by Mel Blanc.

The cartoon marked the final theatrical appearance of the Goofy Gophers during the original Golden Age of Animation era. Unlike previous Goofy Gophers cartoons where Stan Freberg voices Tosh, Blanc voices both Mac and Tosh.

The title is a play on the phrase "tea for two."

Plot

The map of fortune hunter Daffy Duck indicates that gold is located at precisely the spot where the Goofy Gophers live. When Mac and Tosh refuse to leave and defend their home, Daffy decides that violent means are needed to involuntarily remove what he considers pests. The Gophers fight back by giving Daffy first explosives, then ordinary rocks painted like gold, the latter of which fools Daffy into thinking he actually struck gold.
