Cambridge College Pranks End With Haircut Fiasco
A lively Cambridge college gathering devolves into a wild spree as Mr. Singleton Slipslop hosts a great go party. Pranks include table destruction, wine spills, disguises, shaving of heads, and a chaotic pursuit by proctors and bulldogs. Spunge and Spunge’s crew outwit authorities, end with a costly breakfast and a reprimand, concluding with Slipslop’s collapse in bed.
