Foghorn outwits Pete by sending him on wild goose chases for exotic chickens, including a Venezuelan Racing Chicken and an Irish Wrestling Chicken. Despite Foghorn's tricks, Pete manages to snatch a chicken. Foghorn retaliates by tricking Pete into a trap, but is ultimately defeated by a real Irish Wrestling Chicken.
