A couple go out for the evening and leave their baby with a young baby-sitter, Jeannie. As soon as the parents have left, Jeannie gets on the telephone. Jerry, meanwhile, eats some cake, and Tom finishes off a watermelon. Tom and Jerry suddenly see the baby, who crawls across the sink and falls in. Tom catches him in the nick of time and puts him back in his bed. Jeannie continues her telephone conversation. The baby sets out again. He falls down into the cellar and starts crawling about amidst the pipes. He emerges completely black. Tom cleans him up, but Jeannie scolds Tom and throws a book at him, thinking that he's annoying the baby. The baby gets out of bed, climbs the staircase, goes prowling about on the curtain rod, and slides off. Jerry catches him. The baby gets out through the mail drop, into the big postbox in the street. Tom and Jerry open it with a can opener and retrieve the baby. They put him back in bed. The couple return. Jeannie declares that there's been no problem with the baby. Her only complaint is about Tom!
notes:
Music - "Love That Pup" (Bradley)
Filmed in CinemaScope
The characters of Jeannie, the negligent babysitter, and the roving baby appear for the first time in this film; they will be seen again in 'Tot Watchers" (1958).
The master and mistress of the house are completely visible; their faces are not hidden, as they had formerly been.
