Plot Summary

The Pink Panther, walking inside a building, sees a little man painting a wall blue and thinks that pink would be more appropriate. So, the Pink Panther obtains a bucket of pink paint and begins painting the wall with his preferred color. The hot-tempered man doesn't at first realize that his work is being painted over by the panther, but when he does, he grabs a rifle and shoots at the pink cat. The Pink Panther pours his pink paint into the man's rifle, and with each shot that the man fires, gobs of pink paint splatter on the building, turning it entirely pink! And so, the Pink Panther graciously decides to become the building's new occupant. Written by Kevin McCorry

Goofs The painter's jumbo-sized mouse-trap gets tripped when Pinky pulls the tape measure's rule out and then lets it zip back in, yet when the painter trudges dejectedly across the frame again a moment later with the tripped trap clamped onto his posterior, the trap's snapper-bar is still positioned on the "set" half of the trap, not the "tripped" half where the bait-pedal is located.
