In this one, as usual, Sylvester--actually called "Thomas"--is trying to eat Tweety. Syl--uh, "Thomas" first catches Tweety outside on a cold, snowy day, but Tweety is saved by Thomas's owner, an attractive young woman (as opposed to Granny from the later shorts). The woman takes pity on cute little Tweety and takes him inside. Thomas constructs several elaborate towers to get to Tweety's cage, which is hanging on the ceiling. Tweety always cuts them down, however, and Thomas's owner whacks him with a broom for trying to eat Tweety. Eventually, Thomas constructs an elaborate Rube Goldberg trap with which to lure Tweety out of his cage.
