Plot

Jerry is out in the cold Austrian Alps, caught up in a snowball and rolls all the way into a pillar. Jerry rolls himself around on the ground to warm himself up (really a side effect from when he was in the snowball) until he runs into another pillar and sees a cheese shop. Jerry then draws two eyes and a mouth on the window and, when he sees the cheeses, shows a grin. He raps on the door and wakes up Tom, who promptly opens the door, only to find no one there. He walks out into the cold; however, Jerry sneaked in under the cat and now shuts the door closed on Tom. The tables are now turned.

Tom soon starts chattering and does everything he can to stay warm. Tom then peeks through the window and sees Jerry making a fire. His grin is invidious. He tries to enter through the chimney, but Jerry happened to have chosen that moment to light the fire. Jerry hears Tom being thrown around, yelling in pain, and falling off the edge of the building. While Tom falls from a duct, Jerry is a bit puzzled.

Jerry surveys the large array of cheeses and walks in the air towards a large wheel of Emmentaler

 cheese. He starts to dive in and out of the holes in the cheese as Tom manages to open the door. Only his tail remains unfrozen, and Tom uses it to push himself and to light a fire.

Jerry starts to eat the Emmentaler and yodels

, but he falls back in before Tom can grab him. The cat tries this some more before he comes up with another plan. He hammers corks into all of the holes (hitting Jerry on the head) and drops a giant weight on top of a giant bellows, which causes the cheese to burst. Tom recovers form the storm to see much of the cheese gone and Jerry with a cheese-tutu. Jerry walks out, and seeing the tutu, does a brief dance, to an arrangement of the Grand Valse in E-flat. Tom claps as he approaches the mouse and then smacks Jerry between his paws, stunning the mouse and drops him outside in the snow, at which an arrangement of the Fantasie Impromptu begins and continues to the end.

Tom goes back to sleep, but soon feels guilty. Jerry's spirit flies past him. Fearing Jerry is frozen solid, he rushes outside, and brings the frozen mouse inside. Wrapped in a warm blanket, Tom revives Jerry with a tablespoon of 150-proof Schnapps
