With “Tom” in possession of what looks like a lifetime’s supply of dynamite, “Jerry” is besieged in his home and so sends for his no-nonsense cousin “Muscles”. He is a veritable terror when it comes to dealing with errant cats, so within five seconds of arrival he has firmly put “Tom” in his place. Determined to fight back, he enlists the help of some allies - or ought that to be “alleys” - of his own, but what chance they can defeat this formidable, bowler-hatted, champion?

Here, I just found myself feeling a little sorry for the cat. It’s a quickly paced, end-to-end, story with plenty of pyrotechnics and wreckage for the insurance man to sort out, but this wasn’t my favourite.
