Complete Record: Six Terrytoons: In "Wise Quacks," a duck wishes he could sing, but when he does, a fox exhibits him for money, making the duck wish to quack again. The duck escapes and, having learned his lesson, goes home to mother. In "Home Life," Sidney the Elephant wishes for something more interesting to do than counting coconuts, but realizes that more interesting jobs entail more risk. In "Honorable Paint in Neck," a Japanese mouse proprietor makes use of a cat hoodlum's protection racket. In "Mystery in the Moonlight," a cat defeats a mouse and a large DOG that apparently come from a horror movie the mouse was watching. In "Two Ton Baby Sitter," Sidney the elephant is running a babysitting service, but sneezes his charges away until he can keep their feathers out of his trunk. In "Klondike Strike Out," Hector Heathcoat is a "nothing" who finds gold by accident in the Klondike, but is claim-jumped by everyone else.
