Plot

Sylvester embarks on a clandestine mission to appropriate a bone from the doghouse, yet his endeavor is swiftly thwarted by the vigilant Barnyard Dawg. Following an altercation, Sylvester finds himself entangled in a series of misadventures involving Barnyard Dawg, Foghorn Leghorn, and Henery Hawk.

Subsequent to a failed attempt to liberate Barnyard Dawg's dish, Sylvester incurs the ire of his adversary and incites a pursuit. Amidst the chase, Foghorn intervenes, inadvertently exacerbating Sylvester's predicament. As tensions escalate, Sylvester retaliates against Foghorn, precipitating a cascade of confrontations. At one point, Henery Hawk, mistaking Foghorn for a chicken, ensnares him in a scheme to procure dinner. Employing subterfuge and misdirection, Foghorn implicates Sylvester as the intended prey, resulting in a succession of farcical incidents involving an egg and Sylvester's exaggerated response. His escalating frustration culminates in a confrontation with Henery Hawk, prompting a showdown to determine the true chicken. However, the resolution is fraught with further misdirection and irony, epitomized by Foghorn's utilization of ventriloquism to deceive Henery.
