Plot

Alice and Julius play bullfighters, selecting a peaceful old steer as their "bull". However, when Terrible Tom swaps the steer with a legitimate bull, Alice is forced to run for her life. Alice and Julius trap the bull in a pen, and Julius takes on the role of the bull. Their ruse is soon revealed when a dog pulls the bull skin off of Julius, and the crowd reacts angrily to the deception.
