Butch searches for food in a dirty alleyway and puts whatever he likes into the item he's carrying it in. He spots a bottle of milk on someone's doorstep and sneaks over to steal it. But he incidentally swipes an empty bottle after Tom opens the door and switches the two. He then sees a ham on the window seal and attempts to get it, only for Tom to take it and slam the window on his fingers and put it into the fridge.

Butch watches before an idea forms. He picks some items out of the trashcan nearby, including a bassinet, baby hat, and a big white shirt. He turns the shirt into a diaper and puts the hat on. He then pulls the bassinet over to the door. He then pulls the blanket over himself and knocks on the door after he takes the note he wrote out. Tom brings him inside and has him wait a moment. Once he's gone, Butch gets up and quickly runs to the kitchen to grab the ham from earlier. By the time he returns to the bassinet however, Tom is also returning so he tosses it aside and gets back into the bassinet. When Tom returns he gives Butch a bottle of milk. When he drinks it, Butch acts disgusted and spits it out, until remembering he's supposed to be a baby and quickly covers it up.

Summary

Butch searches for food in a dirty alleyway and puts whatever he likes into the shopping basket. He spots a bottle of milk on someone's doorstep and sneaks over to steal it. But Tom switches the bottle with a used one prior to Butch grabbing the milk. He then sees a ham on the window seal and attempts to get it, only for Tom to take it and slam the window on his fingers and put it into the fridge.

Butch watches before an idea forms. He picks some items out of the trashcan nearby, including a bassinet, baby hat, and a big white shirt, which he turns into a diaper and puts the hat on. He then pulls the bassinet over to the door. He then pulls the blanket over himself and knocks on the door after he takes the note he wrote out (transcribed as per writing style, including any underlines and other uses of capitals used in the note): "I am a hungry waif! FEED ME!" Tom brings him inside and has him wait a moment. Once he's gone, Butch gets up and quickly runs to the kitchen to grab the ham from earlier. By the time he returns to the bassinet however, Tom is also returning so he tosses it aside and gets back into the bassinet. When Tom returns he gives Butch a bottle of milk, which he drinks, before he acts disgusted and spits it out, until remembering he's supposed to be a baby and quickly covers it up.

Jerry enters the room and finds the ham behind the catch. Tom leaves and Butch happens to notice, so he grabs the ham and smashes Jerry with it before re-hiding it beneath the bassinet.  After Tom burps him, he leaves again, this time bringing Butch. Jerry comes by to see the ham and tries another round at its theft, only for a repeat of his earlier attempt after Tom leaves to get a hot kettle of water. When he returns, he pours the water into the bath and grabs the ham thinking it is Butch. The moment he sees however, Butch is quick to swap places and lowers the ham, which Jerry furiously grabs once again!

After he bangs his head on the cabinet, Tom finds him and Butch points Jerry and the ham out, crying. Tom chases Jerry while Butch escapes in the commotion to raid the fridge.
