In the cartoon, Tom is a opera singer in Signor Thomasino Catti-Cazzaza Baritone. They brings Tom there in a limousine. When Tom enters to from the artist's entrance, he throws a rose with his coat hem. The people throws them shoes, glasses, hat and some more things. After than Tom enters the artist's entrace to stage. The people claps hands and Tom lift his hand up ("Stop!"). He moves up one of his sinistral finger ("Start the music!"), turns around and sets the air freshener to his mouth. Then he starts singing some songs in Italian. But Jerry lives under the stage and he can't sleep because Tom sings very loudly, so he takes the broom and knocks with its haft onto ceiling. Tom's eyes was closed, but because he moves some millimetres above, he open his eyes and stomps with his left leg onto floor. In Jerry's home all things moves up-down. On stage there was an open floorboard. Jerry takes the hammer, moves hammer up-down twice and hit the floorboard. Tom flies up with his suit. He hit his head with a bell and drops to his suit headfirst. After some seconds he woke and ran to the dressing room. Then he came back and stomps at every step. But when he was in the middle of the stage, he jumps up and when he fell down, Jerry's bed brokes.
