Fortunately, Tom, who is nearby, immediately rushes to Jerry's rescue and subdues Butch by slamming a trash can lid into his face. Later, Jerry is taking a stroll outside, when Butch who happens to be scouring for food in trash cans, spots him and decides that he will make a delightful appetizer. They seat each other, lick the lid of the milk, drink the milk and then share a tooth pick for their teeth.
While Tom helps Jerry brush his teeth, Spike prepares the milk. Spike manages to stop the alarm clock and sneaks off to the kitchen. Jerry then closes Spike's mouth to stop him snoring. Tom, Jerry, and Spike take a nap after this, sharing a blanket, and a flower then falls from a tree near the house and that goes into Tom's mouth. He questions, " What's all this fighting gettin us, huh? Cats can love dogs, can't they? And mice can get along with cats, can't they?" The three animals agree to become friends in the future, they sign a peace treaty in the house. They start to fight, but Spike suddenly stops it. The mouse grabs a pipe, the cat grabs a frying pan and the dog grabs a baseball bat. Tom and Jerry were the two main characters of the 1821 novel Life in London, which was basically the Regency era version of I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell, and “Tom-and-Jerrying” became a slang term that meant “to drink and indulge in riotous behavior.Jerry is chased off the house by Tom and Spike. The names Tom and Jerry were decided by a random drawing of suggestions by studio personnel, but the employee who won was clearly playing a prank that nobody else understood. In their first short film, 1940’s Puss Gets the Boot, Tom was called Jasper and Jerry didn’t even have a name, though he was called Jinx behind the scenes. Tom and Jerry weren’t always called Tom and Jerry.
Of course, Tom and Jerry goes all the way back to 1940, and they starred in a feature film (no matter how poorly received) in 2021, so perhaps we are, in fact, all connected by cartoon violence. Say what you will about speech patterns or styles of jeans, but the real generational divide may very well be whether your childhood TV habits included friendly blobs demonstrating the value of teamwork and kindness or an idiot cat’s singleminded quest to murder an adorable mouse.
