At a picnic, Claude's impish tricks and pranks fool everyone so much that when he sees a man inadvertently scoop Doucette, George and Georgette up in a shopping bag he can't get the others to believe it really happened. When Doucette and the others do not return, Anatole takes Claude seriously. Luckily, Claude remembered enough about the man to trace his location - a local toy store. Anatole mounts a rescue operation while Doucette independently does the same from the store by posing as toys in the store window. Meanwhile, at the picnic area a dropped wallet is returned to its human owner through one of Claude's clever ruses, this time a trick that is helpful instead of a prank. Doucette is saved and Claude has learned his lesson.
