"This is da city. Twee miwwion people. Twee hundwed thousand puddy tats. Dat's where I come in. I'm a wittle bird. I live in a cage. My name...Tweety."
— Tweety, Opening
Tweety narrates his daily activities as he is spotted, then chased by Sylvester. Utilizing aJack Webb impression, Tweety delivers his signature "I tawt I taw a puddy tat" line (adding the line "I checked" in the middle of it), then describes his adversary in detail: "A bwack puddy tat, wed nose, white chest. Name...'Tilvester."
Tweety describes Sylvester's attempts, as follows:
The opening scene, where Sylvester simply crosses the street and walks up the stairs to the room Tweety is located in. An unseen woman roars "Go away! You alley cat! You hooligan! You troublemaker!" and throwsplates at him. Sylvester scurries down the stairs and out of the building.
Subsequently, Sylvester builds a makeshift bridge of wooden planks to get to the building across the way where Tweety is housed. The bridge collapses as the nails come loose at the base, due to the cat's weight and its poor construction.
Syvlester then uses a swing to get to Tweety's apartment, but smashes into a telephone pole.
Sylvester's fourth attempt involves the use of a pilot's ejector seat to get at the high story window where Tweety is, but it hurls him straight through overhead wires, splitting the cat into several lengthwise pieces.
Tweety feeds with the pigeons at the citylibrary. Sylvester stops by and chases his prey into anautomat. Tweety takes refuge behind awindow (conveniently labeled "Tweety Pie," right next to thelemonpie). Sylvester inserts a nickel into the slot, opens the door, and gets a spring-loaded pie thrown into his face.
Following amountain blizzard, Tweety puts spoons on his feet (as snowshoes) to search for food. Sylvester comes after him on skis, and it appears the speedy cat will catch his dinner...until he crashes into atree.
Tweety hides in a treetop in a mine field. Sylvester uses ametal detector to try to avoid the mines, but Tweety throws amagnet at the cat, which draws all the mines at him and results in an explosion.
A chase on a high woodenbridge inColorado, where Tweety hides beneath the deck, out of the cat's reach. A determined Sylvester saws a hole in the center of the bridge, but does not realize he is standing in the middle of the portion he is sawing off until well after he has begun his plummet to theriver below. Unseen by his predator, Tweety steps out of his way. ABritish-accented man in afishingboat spots the fallingprojectile headedstraight for him and takes note of the situation, using Tweety's catchphrase: "I tawt I taw a puddy tat!" Sylvester plunges straight through the boat's hull, causing thecat, the man and his boat to sink ("I did! I did! I did..." the man states, bubbling the last line "...taw a puddy tat!" as he sinks below the surface to end the cartoon).
