Plot
The movie opens with a bakery truck driving down the street, and Beaver and Wally riding together on the latter's bicycle, delivering morning newspapers. Beaver tosses the papers wildly into the air with both hands: one plops into wet cement, others land on two roofs, one in a dog's mouth, one in a birdbath, one on a cat, one in a man's leaf-vacuum nozzle, and one on a painter's head. Then the leaf vacuum explodes and throws dirt through the bakery truck's driver's side window, causing him to slam on the brakes and have his sticky pies thrown about. Beaver and Wally apologize and ride away.
