Plot

Mexican mice attempt to enter the Guadalajara Food Processing Plant but are thwarted by Sylvester, who is guarding it. Hungry, they summon Speedy Gonzales for help.

Speedy successfully steals cheese, but Sylvester chases him. On a conveyor belt, Sylvester gets shaved by chopping blades. Speedy then spreads grease on a platform, causing Sylvester to skid into a vat of Tabasco Sauce, from which he recovers by melting a block of ice. On another conveyor belt, Sylvester gets a bottle cap pressed onto his head. He removes it with a bottle opener, but Speedy traps it back on by causing Sylvester to hit the ceiling and hides the opener.

Sylvester, now aimlessly wandering and trying to club Speedy, accidentally enters a dehydrator. He emerges in miniature size, finally removing the bottle cap, but flees in fright when the now larger Speedy greets him.
