Benny is first seen when Tom attempts to fetch a frisbee that has unexpectedly landed in his yard. As Tom approaches the prized disk, he is abruptly confronted by Benny, whose imposing presence instantly intimidates him. In a show of bravado, Benny introduces himself with a smirk, extending a paw for a handshake. However, what starts as a seemingly friendly gesture quickly turns rough when Benny grips Tom's paw with surprising force, shattering his hand in the process before effortlessly tossing him aside like a ragdoll.
The commotion draws Spike's attention, and he strides over to confront Benny, informing him that Tom is his personal punching bag and asserting his intent to protect his friend. Unfazed, Benny dismissively declares that he can beat up the cat whenever he pleases.
