Mr. Biltybux visits the circus he owns. He tells Bombo that he wants to look around, incognito. Tippy arranges for Biltybux to become a member of the clown troupe. Circus boss Snark throws Biltybux out but apologises when Bombo informs him that the new "clown" is the owner. Biltybux agrees not to fire Snark but forces him to endure abuse as a temporary clown to learn humility.
