Storyline
| Plot Summary |
On his way to deliver the mail, Fatty, the happy postman, makes a stop at his girlfriend Molly's farmhouse for a delightful game of hide-and-seek, as Buster, the village's general store manager, has an unpleasant brush with the law and the gangly local constable. As a result, the sheriff makes a move on Molly, confident enough that his expensive ring will help him win her heart; however, Fatty still has the final word. Perhaps, a night at the dance hall will sort out the problem; nevertheless, how far can Fatty go with a serious case of bad onion breath? Written by Nick Riganas |
