They transform into an exhausted horse and thus manage to sneak into a mansion, which a rich woman has turned into a luxurious home for all kinds of animals as her hobby. A series of comical situations arise there due to the great attention shown to the comedians — the horse, as an animal. For example, they are served an abundance of the finest hay, which they, of course, eat, marking, etc. The climax occurs in a race between the "horse" and the farrier, who wants to shoe it and ends up being shoed himself.
