Jerry and the Lion

[as this short starts, Tom is listening to a radio station, listening to dancing music, like the waltz, jitterbug and others. After Tom changed stations and lowered the radio volume, he heard Jerry raiding the refrigerator. After Jerry escaped, Tom walked back and listen to the radio]

Radio Announcer:
Attention! Attention, everyone! We interrupt this program to bring you this warning. A ferocious lion has just escaped from the circus. I repeat, a ferocious lion has just escaped from the circus. You are advised to bar your windows and doors immediately!

[Jerry overheard the warning and saw the lion's eye's in a shadow and shrieked. The lion then caught Jerry, just to ask him for favors, not threaten or scare him]

Lion:
Shh! Don't give me away, pal. Don't let 'em catch me. If they take me back to that circus, I'll go crazy! I can't stand that corny music! Or that "crackle, crackle crackle" of them popcorn bags. Say you'll help me get back to the jungle. Please? [Lion said please with bright white teeth, almost as if posing for a smile] . [Jerry then nodded his head, meaning yes] Gee. Thanks pal! Thanks! Uh, there's just one more little thing. [Lion opens and closes its mouth, after closing mouth] I'm hungry.

Jerry:
Shh. Shh. Shh.

[Jerry and the lion then went towards the refrigerator. Jerry stopped the lion, from being seen, then went to refrigerator and get an extra-large leg-quarter, of a drumstick and thigh. Tom sees Jerry as he was bringing the meat's leg-quarter to the lion. Tom takes it away, from Jerry, and raises it to where the hidden lion is, behind a curtain, then the lion sniffs the meat and quietly bit off 90% of the piece and started munching. Tom started to try to eat it, not knowing that was almost already consumed, by the hidden lion. Tom and Jerry then heard the lion's gulp, as it swallowed the meat and Tom was immediately scared and was starting to aim the rifle towards the curtain, Jerry quickly grabbed base of rifle and it went off, through the roof of the house, Jerry then pretended to be severely injured and die. As Jerry was opossum, pretending to be dead, Tom went to an emergency aid kit to patch up any wounds, that he thought were on Jerry, while Tom was gone, Jerry and the lion hide, again]

Lion:
Psst! [the lion was calling Jerry, to hide, in a closet]

[after Jerry and the lion escaped from Tom, they went to a shipping dock. The ship's name is S. S. Africa. Jerry then pushes and lifts the lion onboard the ship and the foghorn toots once]

Lion:
Good-Bye! So long! [lion then sheds a tear of joy, from Jerry's favors and assistance. Jerry also sheds a tear a sniffle, as the ship is almost out of sight]
