The booming, city hip-hop beats of Jerry's wind-up car cause country farmer Tom's chicken to lay mass quantities of eggs which soon become too much of a good thing.
Plot[]
The episode begins in the city, where Jerry is listening to hip-hop music. Suddenly, jackhammering noise interrupts him. Jerry switches to disc player from the radio. This does not help in silencing the sound of jackhammer. Jerry peek outside and spots a construction drill, cars, and a dog barking. Jerry attempts to change the radio set to music again, but the jackhammering noise remains louder. Therefore, he elects to move into countryside.
At the farm, Tom is running out of eggs. The hen refuses to hatch eggs. The desperate feline farmer swings a pan at the farm bird, but he misses and hits himself instead. Meanwhile, Jerry's car arrives at the farm and causes the animals to be disturbed: a pig hides its head in mud and a cow puts on earbuds. Only the hen enjoys the music and dances to it. Once Jerry's car stops, Jerry starts dancing and jamming to his music. Having witnessed the change in bird's conduct, Tom turns off the speakers. Jerry turns them on again. The tuned in hen starts to lay eggs, which get thrown into Tom as he attempts to turn off the speakers and Jerry does his best to reset them. Tom gets mad because Jerry keeps playing loud music at his farm, but after a moment he realizes that his hen is laying eggs and dancing because of the music. Having turned the speakers off, the hen stops dancing and hatching eggs. Jerry then turns the speakers on once again, which makes the hen resume laying eggs again, then those are bombarding Tom.
The feline farmer finds the hen laying satisfying amounts of eggs, therefore he heads to take the eggs and put them in the fridge. At this stage, the music suddenly switches to guitar riffs. With enough eggs gathered, Tom turns off the speakers, but Jerry turns it on again. The constant music surge results in generating excessive amounts of eggs. Therefore, Tom hits the speaker with a bat. However, when he goes to sleep, the music is heard again, and the hen shoots eggs at him again. It turns out that Jerry brought more loudspeakers with himself, so the hen can lay more eggs. And Jerry also brought headphones with him, so he starts jamming to the hip-hop music. Soon, a pile of eggs appears. And Jerry turns up the music louder just so the hen can lay even more eggs. From this very reason, Tom chases Jerry into the top of an egg pile and the hen keeps firing eggs at him at the top of the egg pile.
As the chase continues, Jerry disappears, and Tom tries to locate him under the egg barrage. Jerry reveals himself having been hiding in one of the eggs, thus Tom tries to sink the eggs into the well or off a cliff. Later on, he fills them in some towers and launches them to Moon. With the eggs flooding the farm, Tom tries to abandon the farm it by riding Jerry's car and moves into city. This does not help, for he gets defecated by pigeons while relaxing.
