Comments

From Jesus Daprice : Overall this short was great, but one just has to wonder. How in the world did a robot cow figure out that Oswald and his girlfriend were in trouble? It's like it had a mind of its own.

From Ryan : This short is definitely a silent classic. Oswald has a robot cow (wonder why he didn't just use a real one) that pours milk like a gas tank. Then we've got his girlfriend skipping down the road (in a similar way to Minnie Mouse). Gangsters come by and kidnap Oswald's girlfriend. As most of you know, gangsters were quite common when this short came out in the Roaring 20's. The gangsters finally get what's coming to them by being gobbled up by a group of sharks as soon as they fall into the ocean.
