Grandpa and his two friends are having a playful shootout with toy guns when Grandpa’s dad arrives in his ancient, clattering car—only to have it sputter to a halt right outside the scrapyard.

Minnie The Minx and her dad set off for a toothpaste commercial audition, hoping to land the part of a "nice little girl"—but things take a funny turn when they end up in a slapstick slipper ad instead.
