Tom is a crooked tax collector who finagles the poor mice of a village out of every coin they have, even Jerry. A band of Beatle-esque rats sets up at the outskirts of town and performs a rock song called "The Itch": (which only consists of the line "Swing around and curtsy. Diggin' in the dirtsy. Twitchin'. Stichin'.", "We all dance the Itch."). The song is about to play until Jerry tries to play flute with the band, but is booted unceremoniously offstage. When the song starts all the mice dance in a weird way. Jerry then realizes why the audience is dancing—the music is controlling swarms of fleas, making them move with frentic scratching. With some help from Tom and the band, Jerry convinces the villagers to leap off a nearby bluff into the lake, washing the pests off. Later the grateful band rocks on to an appreciative flealess crowd. Jerry is the featured floutist, and Tom is the ticket taker.
Tom er en korrupt skatteinnkrever som krever så mye fra de stakkars musene i landsbyen at de blir fattige, til og med Jerry. Et musikkband bestående av rotter holder konsert i utkanten av byen og spiller en sang de kaller "Kløen". Alle begynner å vrikke seg og klø på ordentlig. Jerry finner ut at en sverm med lopper er tiltrukket av musikken.
Tom est un percepteur d'impôts véreux qui arrache les pauvres souris d'un village à chaque pièce qu'ils ont, même Jerry. Un groupe de rats Beatle-esque s'installe à la périphérie de la ville et interprète une chanson rock intitulée "The Itch": (qui se compose uniquement de la ligne "Swing around and curtsy. Diggin' in the dirtysy. Twitchin'. Stichin'. ", "Nous dansons tous la démangeaison.").
Als eine Musikgruppe, die nur aus Ratten besteht, in die Stadt des Sheriffs Tom kommt, werden die Mäuse mit Flöhen angesetckt! Nun liegt es an Tom und Jerry, die Plage loszuwerden.
