As expected, the Sweeper takes the bait, rushes up to the second floor (allowing Bertie to escape), and jumps out the window where it too crashes to the ground. He does this by taking a large vase up to the house's second floor and tossing it out the window, where it crashes to the ground. Seeing this, Hubie comes up with a plan to rescue Bertie. Twice, Bertie peeks out, but the Sweeper sticks its head out as if to say "Oh, no you don't!" Bertie escapes the bin, but thinking that Bertie is "escaping refuse", the Sweeper comes back out, sweeps up Bertie again, sweeps him back into the bin, and returns to its closet. Again, the Sweeper comes out, sweeps up the mess and Bertie, sweeps them into the bin, and return to its closet. Straight after Hubie presses the button, another wheel of cheese flies out, but crashes on top of Bertie and the plate. To prevent losing the second wheel of cheese, Hubie arranges for Bertie to stand by to catch the cheese with a plate. When Hubie presses the button, a wheel of cheese flies out, but crashes to the floor, which summons the Sweeper to come out, sweep up the mess, and put it in the bin. The laundry incident is quickly forgotten when both mice spy a button labeled "Cheese Dispenser". As a result, Hubie slaps Bertie for putting him through that. The laundry is then returned all pressed and ironed, with Hubie (looking pressed and ironed himself) at the top. Bertie then cringes and shakes as, offscreen (and to the tune of " Here we go round the mulberry bush"), Hubie goes through the washing, rinsing, mangling, ironing, and folding processes. This makes a vacuum appear above a hamper, where Hubie just happens to be, and suck up Hubie and the laundry. Bertie presses a button, where a light next to it reveals it's the laundry button. Hubie gives in, but (out of fear that whatever button Bertie presses might hurt him) gets a safe distance away on the other side of the kitchen before giving Bertie the A-OK. As the mice go up onto the kitchen counter where some unlabeled buttons are, Bertie again requests to push a button. Impressed by what Hubie meant by the perfect house, Bertie insists on pushing the next button they come across, but Hubie slaps him and states that he himself will be pushing the buttons as Bertie isn't smart enough to do so. This summons the Robot Sweeper, a robot armed with a broom and having a dustpan near its wheels, that comes out, sweeps up the ash into its dustpan, sweeps it into the refuse bin, and returns to its closet. Upon pressing the button, a cigarette lighter lights a cigar, a robotic puffer puffs the cigar, and a robotic arm taps the cigar ash on to the floor. Hubie and Bertie then start dancing to the music that plays, until Hubie spies a button that demonstrates the Automatic Sweeper. At first, Bertie is scared by the recording and tries to run away, but Hubie stops him and points out that this is the perfect place for them as everything for them can be provided at the touch of a button.Īs a demonstration, Hubie pushes a button to the Automatic Record Player: the record player rises up out of the floor, a robotic arm on a table picks out a record disc from a collection of records and tosses it like a frisbee, and two robotic arms (one of them has a catcher's mitt) catch the record, put it on the turntable, and start playing the record. Upon entry, they step on the welcome mat, which activates an audio recording that welcomes visitors to the House of Tomorrow and invites them to try out the many gadgets the house provides. In the hopes of finding a home with plenty of food, the mice head on up to the House of Tomorrow. Outside a model " home of tomorrow" designed by Frank Lloyd Wrong, Hubie calls up Bertie and chides him for wearing a flower on his head. cartoon to have its color process in Cinecolor since Beauty and the Beast.
