Fed up with Jerry in the house, Tom and his owner move to Malaysia. They are touring the exotic monkey garden when Tom finds out Jerry followed them so he throws him down the river and gets gumballs as a reward. Meanwhile, one mischievous monkey swipes the woman's purse. She orders Tom to get it back for her, but not before he goes through its various contents, which leads to more trouble, including going for a joyride in her car and using her cell phone to make a long distance order for pizza.
