Tom and Jerry is an American animated television series that revolves around the events of a cat named Tom and a mouse named Jerry. The show's second season, episode 29, called Neapolitan Mouse, presents a series of events that take place when Jerry, the mouse, is in Italy.

The episode begins with Jerry enjoying the beautiful architecture and culture of Italy. As he strolls down the streets of the historic country filled with gelato stands, he spots an old-fashioned ice cream parlor run by an elderly Italian man. Jerry decides to step in to taste some delicious ice creams. The kind Italian owner gives Jerry a scoop of Neapolitan ice cream, which he finds absolutely divine. He finishes the ice cream and leaves the shop, only to find out that he cannot resist the irresistible taste for long.

Jerry returns to the shop to taste more of the Neapolitan ice cream, but he makes the mistake of going in through the front door. The moment he walks in, he realizes he's not alone. Tom, the cat, is also inside the shop and spots the mouse the moment he walks through the door. The chase begins as Tom tries to catch Jerry, who is set on having some more Neapolitan ice cream. Tom tries everything in his power to catch Jerry, but the clever mouse always manages to outsmart the cat.

As the chase continues, the ice cream parlor proprietor observes the scene from behind the counter. He starts to think of a way to help the poor little mouse escape from Tom's grasp. He decides to help Jerry by creating a distraction. He walks over to Tom and offers him a bowl filled with ice cream to distract him for a few moments while Jerry makes his escape.

Tom falls for the trick and gets lost in the ice cream world; eating and enjoying every scoop. Meanwhile, Jerry is busy having his fill of Neapolitan ice cream. The ice cream owner keeps Tom busy for as long as he can, and finally, Jerry is ready to leave.

As he is about to exit, Tom spots the mouse. The consequences are exactly what you'd expect. The chase and shenanigans continue as the two characters zigzag up and down staircases and slide down ropes. The chase culminates with both of them running through the kitchen of the ice cream parlor.

As they skid across the ice cream-covered floor, they find the ice cream owner, whom they accidentally fling onto a table. This creates commotion in the kitchen. The entire kitchen mess is turned into a huge mess as ingredients spill onto the floor. The resulting messy kitchen provides the perfect end to the comic and chaotic chase.
