The Missing Mouse
Directed by Joseph Barbera, William Hanna
Produced by MGM Cartoon Studio
A frenetic, slapstick comedy built on mistaken identity and escalating physical gags, where Tom's paranoia about an explosive mouse drives relentless cartoon mayhem.
A moment after a bottle of white shoe polish pours on Jerry, Tom hears on the radio that a white mouse, having swallowed an explosive, has escaped from an experimental laboratory and that slightest jar of the mouse could cause it to explode and blow up the entire city. It is then that Tom notices now-white Jerry and concludes it's the escapee.
