Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Jerry's best friend is a goldfish--and his worst enemy, as always, is Tom. Listening to a radio cooking show in which the ebullient French chef describes an "exquisite" fish dinner, Tom is inspired to add the goldfish to his menu. But Jerry isn't about to let his pal be transformed into a blue plate special, so he grabs the goldfish and rushes off, with Tom in hot pursuit. Temporarily safe in a glass of water, the fish must somehow be returned to his bowl without Tom's interference. Until this cartoon came around, who would have guessed that there were so many different ways to cook a fish--and so many different ways for Jerry to cook Tom's goose? (And where does Jerry get all those dynamite sticks?)
