Summary:

Matt the Rat is preparing some soup for his friend Sam the Ram, but when he tries to bring the pot to the table he slips on a banana peel and the soup goes flying out of the window. The pot lands on Ross the Cat's head and spills on his ears.  Ross is mad at first, but Sam rushes out with a rag and helps him clean up. The three friends decide to share the soup together and laugh about what happened.
