The Pink Panther has a dilemma: how to deliver a mysterious package to the Slobovian Embassy before 12 o'clock where there is a huge guard dog ready to tear him to bits.
The panther was walking down the street in this nice residential area, minding his own business when a shady-looking characters calls him over. He hands our hero a note which says, "Will pay you 10,000 kopeks to deliver package to Slobovian Embassy." Our man declines but the guy pulls a gun of him, and gives him another note saying, "Deliver it before 12 o'clock....or else!" In addition, the PP hears ticking inside the box.
The main gag of the cartoon is the Panthers efforts to get that package delivered and before 12. He goes through all kinds of lengths to carry this mission out, first encountering the dog and getting chased out, then trying to disguise himself as a kindly woman, tight-roping on telephone wires above the dog, catapulting the package (as time is running out and he hears more ticking), then catapulting himself with the package, on and on. It gets really wild and the dog is hilarious. The panther is funny, too, especially imitating a statue.
I won't mention the ending. Overall, this is one of the more inventive Pink Panther cartoons and thoroughly enjoyable.
