Tom is chasing Jerry as usual, when during the chase, a piano comes tumbling down the stairs, smashing into Tom and killing him. Tom then floats up the gates of Heaven, but the gatekeeper refuses to let him through since all he did was attempt to catch Jerry for most of his life. He does say, however, that if he can get Jerry to sign a Certificate of Forgiveness within one hour, he will be allowed passage into Heaven… otherwise, he’ll have to go to Hell.
