Plot

Betty runs the local pet store. Silent Henry wants to buy a puppy, but only has two cents. Soft-hearted Betty offers to let Henry work off the difference at her store. She soon regrets this decision after Henry causes a ruckus trying to manage the pets. In the end, Henry recaptures some escaped birds (by letting them eat seeds off his head), and Betty rewards him with the puppy he wanted.

Notes and comments

The Henry comic strip debuted in 1932, and still runs in some papers.[3] This short was Henry's sole animated appearance.

Betty sings "Everybody Ought to Have a Pet."

gollark: It ought to be okay. Basically, each socket gets an ID, and each client should only be connected to one server.
gollark: Does it need to do anything other than just exchange messages which you can think of?

gollark: I wanted it to work on nodejs without precompilation.
