Little Runaway
0 views
A baby seal escapes from the circus and ends up in Jerry’s backyard pond. Tom finds out soon enough when Jerry grabs a fish from Tom’s plate, and when the circus offers a $10,000 reward, his goal is clear. After some straightforward chases, Tom disguises himself in an inner tube to lure the seal and gets caught by the circus’s own patrol.
★★★☆☆
Curator’s rating
Jerry hiding an escaped circus seal, with Tom trying to claim the reward. The hide-the-large-animal premise gives the animators a good physical problem to solve, and the seal is drawn with the sort of appeal usually reserved for the duckling.
