Scrappy is building a new house with the help -- if you can call it that, which you really can't -- of the irascible Pete the Parrot.
There are some good gags lhere involving thrown bricks that are fielded perfectly, a sort of gag that was perfected during the silent era, but which couldn't be done with film running in its normal course. There are also two sequences involving Ned Sparks, which makes me suspect that Sparks was working at Columbia at the time this was made, and that the cartoon was running shorr, and needed to be filled out by a minute.
