Description
Sloth and Squirrel are unlikely friends with very different approaches to work. When Squirrel convinces Sloth to take a job packing pickles to earn money for a bicycle, their contrasting speeds cause chaos at the pickle factory. The mismatched duo ends up packing hundreds of jars incorrectly and losing their jobs. Their dream of buying a new bike appears to be over.
