In a 1920s vignette, Mrs Mouse serves cakes to Tingaling and others as a speaking tube interrupts. Janitor Mr Mouse answers, resolving a mix up about a handkerchief and a laundry issue. Mr Munchie confirms ice delivery while the fairyman laments the constant whistles.
In broad daylight the bold fox steals a plump chicken from Farmer Brown's boy. He flaunts his deed to prove his cleverness, strutting through the Green Forest and Meadows to boast of what he did.
Reddy Fox boasts about stealing a chicken in daylight prompting Peter Rabbit and Jimmy Skunk to fear his luck will run out. Farmer Brown’s Boy arms Bowser the Hound to track the fox as Bowser bays and the chase begins along the crooked path.
