Description: Jerry hides behind a potato mound in a garden when he hears Spike the bulldog call to him. Spike has been caught by a dog catcher and locked in the back of his truck. Despite their differences, Jerry shows Spike mercy and frees him by removing a piece of wood that latches the cage shut. Tom sneaks around the fence and holds out two pieces of bread as the mouse heads towards him. Just as Tom starts to cut the bread in half with Jerry in it, Jerry whistles and Spike saves him by grabbing Tom in the neck.
