Tom and Jerry (1940-1967)

Tom (Jasper) gets told that if he breaks one more thing he is getting thrown out, so Jerry (Jinx) tries his best to make Jasper "Get the Boot".

Jerry decides to have a midnight snack. And what better than to have some nice, fresh cheese! He takes some from the fridge, but before he can eat it, Tom chases him for it. After breaking a lot of things, when chasing Jerry, Mammy hears the noise and comes down in a huff. Scared, Tom throws Jerry into the fridge to hide him. A bit later, Mammy finds Jerry in the fridge. She gets really angry, and throws Tom of out of the house. While Mammy is doing that, Jerry grabs the cheese, and finally eats it.

Well, a mouse *is* stirring... And he's having fun playing with the toys, until he mistakes Tom for a stuffed toy and wakes him up.

On the radio, Tom listens to "The Witching Hour" that tells scary stories that almost give Tom a heart attack. After seeing Tom's reaction to the radio show, Jerry schemes a way to scare Tom. He moves everything in the house to make it seem like a ghost is in the house. Jerry does everything he can to give Tom a good spook. Tom gets so scared by all the strange things going on that he faints. Later, he finds out that Jerry was the one behind all this, so he chases him around the house. Accidentally, Tom attacks Mammy instead of Jerry, and she, once again, throws him out of the house.

Tom is chasing Jerry again, and they run into a bull dog. The bull dog gets angry, and starts to chase Tom AND Jerry.

Mammy brings home a cute little kitten who just happens to be a girl. Immediately when Tom sees the kitten, he is smitten. Tom tries to act cool around the kitten, and he gives her presents (such as fish). Jerry wants to ruin this.

Tom and Jerry are at the bowling alley. Tom, repeatedly, tries to run over Jerry with his ball. He misses Jerry every time he rolls. Jerry gets back at him by putting the bowling ball on his foot, tying it to his tail, making it hit him when it rolls, etc.

Tom chases Jerry on a farm, and Jerry hides by a hen. The hen is startled by Tom, so she hits him hard. Jerry dresses himself as a chick, and acts like he's one of the hen's. The rest of the chicks think Jerry is just another one of them. While Tom runs away from the hen, Jerry settles in by the mother and her chicks.

Jerry is being chased into an alley, and is seen by an alley cat. The alley cat wants to eat him, but Tom steps in, and says that's his mouse. The two cats fight each other for Jerry, as he runs away trying to hide. The alley cat says to share the mouse, but Tom wants Jerry all for himself. So, they race to see who will catch Jerry first.

After being framed by Jerry for breaking something, Tom is thrown out of the house by Mammy. Jerry is overjoyed that he has finally won. He sleeps in Tom's bed, drinks his milk, and makes himself comfortable in Tom's place. After a while, Jerry gets really bored and lonely over the fact that no one is chasing him. There's nothing to do. So, Jerry goes outside to find Tom, and Mammy screams for Tom to get the mouse out of the house. Tom chases Jerry all over the house for pretend to satisfy Mammy. Once Tom claims his territory again, Jerry comes back and makes Tom angry. And the chase starts all over again. Jerry is glad to have the excitement back.

Tom is attacking Jerry with everything that's in the house. He throws vases, paper airplanes, lamps, and anything he can get his hands on to get Jerry. Basically, it's like a war is going on. Jerry retaliates by using a cheese grater, and using fireworks to fight Tom back with. (I.E. Yankee Doodle Mouse) They do the same thing fighting back and forth for the rest of the episode. It ends with Jerry winning the battle, as he blows up Tom using the fireworks, turning him into an American Flag.

A little girl is dollying up Tom to make him look like a baby cat. Jerry laughs at him, prompting Tom to chase him around the house into a dollhouse. Jerry dresses up like a doll to escape from Tom, without him noticing. Jerry shows the alley cats from outside the way Tom looks, and they laugh and make fun of him. The alley cats come in the house, and dress Tom in diapers and REALLY make him look like a baby. That's when the little girl appears, and makes the alley cats leave in a hurry. The little girl continues to turn Tom into a baby cat, while Jerry and the alley cats watch while laughing at him.
