At the farm. Tom goes to the chicken coop inside a haystack. He come out from the haystack and tiptoes to the hen coop. He takes out the red rubber glove and put it on the head and disguise as a chicken. Then he slithers to the hen coop.

The egg rolls down to the nest. When the chickens are done laying eggs Jerry pull the lever up but the machine goes down. Then he run out of the chicken coop. However, when Tom looks at the chicken eggs. He is about to steal the egg from the nest.

Jerry scooping the grains. Suddenly, Jerry hears the cat screeching and he looks at the chicken coop causing chaos. Jerry goes to the chicken coop and seeing the chicken running about and throwing eggs about while Tom ducks down. Jerry runs to the nest and hide inside the egg shell. Then, Tom take the nest outside, but the spaceship appears above the chicken coop. Tom goes out of the chicken coop while he carrying a nest.

Suddenly, the light flash onto Tom and abducted by an martian green beam and the spaceship flying away and flew out of the earth and goes into space. Tom appears in the teleport spaceship while carrying the nest but he looks around until the fat Martian Mouse Servant grabs him causing the nest to fall on the teleport. The Fat Martian Mouse tells the thin Martian Mouse Servant that this earth chicken seems kinda wimpy.

The thin Martian Mouse Servant looks through the book while he tells the fat Martian Mouse Servant that it's okay as long as Tom lays 2000 eggs they need for the Queen's cake and the fat one says "That's right, it's her birthday". The thin Martian Mouse Servant tells fat Alien Mouse Servant to count the eggs. So he counted the eggs there is five eggs but the thin Martian Mouse Servant said only 1995 more to go and tells him to collect the eggs pronto so they don’t get any trouble like they did with the cream puff. After asiding "Oh yeah, yeah, that was bad", The fat Martian servant tells him to lay 1995 eggs but Tom tries to lay the eggs but he is too tired so the fat Alien Mouse Servant grab him on it’s tail and pokes him and shake him but Tom is about to puke so he goes to the thin Martian Mouse Servant and says something is wrong with the chicken so the thin Martian Mouse Servant Grabs Tom and shake him, but he suggested we could put Tom in the egg extractor.

Jerry comes out from the egg and walks out from the nest. Tom sees the egg machine so he tries to run away and goes into the thin Martian Mouse Servant clothes but the thin Martian Mouse Servant tries to get Tom out so the fat Martian Mouse Servant use the rolling pin to hit him causing it Tom to come out and he runs away, so the thin Martian Mouse Servant hand over the rolling pin so the fat Martian Mouse Servant gives the rolling pin to thin Martian Mouse Servant and poke him on his tummy.

The Thin Martian Mouse Servant orders the fat Martian Mouse Servant to go get that chicken as Jerry peers by the ingredients to watch. The Princess Martian Mouse carrying her alien pet enters the kitchen find the servants searching while making a mess and asked what is going on making them jump causing the saucepan to land onto the fat Martian Mouse Servant's head. The Martian Mouse servants tell her that they are experiencing a culinary malfunction and the Princess Alien Mouse gives them her two words which are cream puffs much to their fear. After she leaves the kitchen, The Thin Martian Mouse Servants tells the far Martian Mouse servants he heard her and to get back to work because times are wasting.

Tom climbs into the bowl of cake batter and Jerry sees the Princess’s fuzzy Alien Pet as he looks through the kitchen items. Jerry then dives into the cup of water while being chased by the fuzzy alien pet who growls at it as the fat Martain mouse servants picks it up and gives him the PFTT sign. Tom covered in cake batter emerges shaking himself clean as the fat alien Mouse servant gives the thin martian mouse servant the cup of more batter and he pours it all inside the bowl with both Tom and Jerry in it.

As the duo were now in batter, The thin martian mouse servant gets the electric whisk, mixes the batter while following the recipe, pours it into two separate cake bowls with them still inside. Next, The two martian mouse servants each take a cake bowl, place them both in the oven and press a button activities it then they take it out again. Finally, they put the two sponge cakes together into a birthday cake and then they bring the cake to their queen. And just as she was about to blow out the candles, Tom and Jerry come out of the cake and she screams, and then the alien mice traps them in a dish dome and they explained that That’s the chicken, though the queen made it clear that she doesn’t care what it is and she orders them to go take them back and bring her a real chicken or else.

So they take both Tom and Jerry back to the chicken coop and then they abduct a cow instead. After watching the spaceship fly away, Tom has just laid an egg like a chicken for the first time, much to his and Jerry's surprise as the episode iris out on him. Is Tom going to have scrambled egg for his tea?

Characters[]

Notes[]

  • Despite the name of the episode, there's no confirmation that the martian mice actually are from Mars.
    • They're pretty much the reversed version of the Martians in Tom and Jerry: Blast Off to Mars, the martians in this episode resembled green mice with antennas on their heads and they're giant-sized, a lot larger than a human, while the Martians in Blast Off to Mars are mouse-sized, but they don't resemble mice at all.
  • The spaceship the martian mice ride in is animated in CGI.
    • This is the second episode where CGI was used. The first being "Cat Nebula."

Errors[]

  • When the chickens are done laying eggs, there are six eggs in the nest. However, when Tom looks at the chicken eggs, there are five eggs.
    • This error also occurs when one of the alien mouse servants count the eggs in the nest.
  • The haystack near the chicken coop disappears when Jerry hears Tom trying to steal the eggs.
  • When the Queen Martian Mouse angrily tells the servants to bring a real chicken, her eyes turn green for a split second.
