Banished to his room until dinner because he has been lazy, an angry child takes his frustration out on the animals and objects around him. He throws the tea service around, tortures a squirrel and a cat, and rips up first the upholstery and then his books. Suddenly, as if by magic, his innocent victims come alive and decide to take their revenge.
