Oswald the Lucky Rabbit is a clown in Pete's circus. He's also fired from the cannon. Pete wants gymnast Kitty to sign a contract, but Oswald warns her against it. Will Pete get his revenge?
This one is handled as a melodrama with Pete uttering "Curses" and similar ejaculations. The gags are few in number, but well spaced and executed. The style of animation is still in the midst of the rubber-tube animation era, but this one is clearly in the sound era, not the "synchronized" era that eased cartoons into the talkies.
Other than those points and the fact that Pete appears in both Lantz and Disney cartoons in this period -- when Mintz grabbed the rights to Oswald from Disney, no one bothered to lock down the supporting characters -- this is an unremarkable cartoon.
