Plot
Tom prepares a Valentine's Day surprise for Toots, complete with a gift box containing a note from Jerry. Despite his efforts to impress her with music, dance, Toots rejects Tom's advances, calling him, "corny", and leaving him humiliated.
After Tom hears from Toots' radio of the latest style, he dons a homemade zoot suit to impress her. Jerry, seizing the opportunity, teases Tom relentlessly, eventually outsmarting him and stealing the spotlight in the stylish suit.
