 Hickory and Dickory, the two mice, overhear a news report that all black cats will be exterminated because it is Friday the 13th. Doc, who is a black cat, is being hounded by the police. They try to "help" him but their attempts cause more harm than good (they tell him to hide in Cecil the bulldog s doghouse and inside a running dishwasher). When he discovers he s being given the "run-around", he tries to get his revenge on them (and on Cecil the bulldog) but all his attempts fail miserably.
