 Col. Rimfire reads a newspaper ad announcing a $1,000 reward for a live tiger. He spots Cool Cat, and the chase is on again...this time the hunter herding the tiger to the circus. The two chase each other through a series of the usual acts (e.g., the Indian snake charmer, arcade games, the seal act, the human cannonball and sticking the head into the lion s mouth). Each time, Col. Rimfire gets the worst end of the act. However, he temporarily evens the score by calling Cool Cat s bluff as Asbesto, the Fire Eater (by forcing him to swallow fire). After a round on the trapeze, the ringmaster (who has been observing the goings-on) decides to hire both Col. Rimfire and Cool Cat for his upcoming shows, offering $500 to join the show. Both accept, but Cool Cat divides their first week s wages ("Four for you and one, two, three, four for me!").
