Tom and Jerry are engaged in some Western-flavored cat-and-mouse games (props such as lassoes, spurs, prickly pear cactus, and revolver pistols are involved) when Tom spots a pretty cowgirl cat. Overcome with lust, Tom dresses up in his best cowboy duds and tries to impress the cowgirl, but Jerry sabotages his efforts. Tom takes out tobacco and rolls it up on a piece of paper, then uses Jerry's tongue to stick it closed, Tom smokes it and breathes out the smoke to spell "Howdy" as The cowgirl is flustered and giggly.
