A short gent, clad only in a bow tie, espies a lone apple high up on a branch. He wants it, so goes to fetch a ladder. The litter picker shows up so he has to abandon that idea. Then he brings an old jalopy, but that gets towed. An elephant gun? Really? Well a photographer puts paid to that idea. What next? Well I doubt you can predict just what does happen, but it is quite fun. The animation reminded me a little of the 1960s "Pink Panther" cartoons and the lively soundtrack helps to keep it jogging along nicely - if maybe not so memorably.
