Mewsette en París
Animation
La historia está ambientada en el cambio de siglo XIX-XX en Francia, predominantemente en París. Sin embargo, empieza en una granja en Provenza, donde la encantadora gata Mewsette está aburrida con su pretendiente (Jaune Tom, un experto pero tímido cazador de ratones). Inspirada por las historias de glamour y sofisticación de París ("Take My Hand, Paree"), Mewsette se escapa a la gran ciudad, donde se encuentra al hábil estafador Meowrice. Aprovechándose de la ingenuidad de la gata, la pone al cuidado de la sutil Madame Reubens-Chatte, quien promete convertir a Mewsette en una exquisita debutante. Meowrice está prometiendo a Mewsette sin que ella lo sepa con un rico gato americano de Pittsburgh, conocido como el "Dr. Phtt" ("El Gato del Dinero"). Mientras tanto, Jaune Tom y su compinche Robespierre llegan a París buscando a Mewsette.

Melody

Finally, an example of how a simple melody can be expanded into a symphony: an elaborate version of the simple tune that opened the lesson

Goofy's reflection "helps" him lose weight by refusing to let him eat. Geef thinks he can resist but is soon upset by all manner of temptations.
