Tom-ic Energy

Tom is chasing Jerry on top of a building and then through the building while during the chase two women first an older woman then a younger woman screaming until the duo reach a balcony. Tom pokes his head through the other window and yells at Jerry, scaring the spirit out of Jerry's body. Jerry's spirit then squeals at Tom, causing him to pale and age rapidly.

Tom chases Jerry up work steps in a zigzag pattern and into the air until Jerry stops him and points to the ground, after which Tom falls through the piped balcony, splitting himself into pieces in mid-air. Jerry jumps down a water duct, and as Tom, seeing him, sticks his mouth out to swallow him, but misses, Jerry bursts through Tom. The duo are then forced to stop for a traffic light before the light turns yellow and both prepare to run, but that's when Tom dashes off too early and gets run over by a large red truck.

Tom pursues Jerry around a corner, but is forced by Jerry to stop and fall into a manhole. Jerry flees, but as Tom pops out of another manhole under Jerry, Jerry spins on the manhole cover, twisting Tom's head before Tom stops it with his finger. Jerry, still going around in circles on the manhole, goes on the edge and hits Tom's nose repeatedly, before accidentally dropping it after clutching his nose, flattening Tom's toes and making him feel the pain and screaming.

Jerry offers to inflate Tom's toes with a bike pump, but instead ends up over inflating Tom into a ball before letting go, then sends him rocketing into the air. Tom falls into a pair of Long Johns and is thrown back up to the top of the building, catching a feather boa and a lady's hat on the way back up. A love crazed male cat pursues Tom and kisses him while reciting French poetry as Jerry taunts him by playing a romantic piece on a pretend violin. Tom eventually becomes so irritated that he attacks the love crazed cat and flees. Jerry briefly changes the tune to the William Tell Overture before heading down to the street with Tom giving chase.

As Jerry is able to run under a bulldog walking down the street, Tom runs into the bulldog. Tom kisses the bulldog to flee and kicks him in the face. The furious bulldog chases after the cat, missing him several times for trying to bite Tom. Annoyed, Jerry places a manhole cover between Tom and the bulldog, causing the bulldog to run into it and be shaped into a concertina before fleeing. The chase between Tom and Jerry then continues although Tom shakes Jerry's hand to thank him for taking care of the bulldog.
