Baby Be Good

Betty Boop puts her nephew Junior to bed. He jumps on the mattress and stripes the cat with toothpaste. She tells him a fairy tale about a boy who ties a can to a puppy's tail, scares a hen, cuts down an apple tree, bricks a greenhouse, muddies laundry, shaves a barber, and steals a circus lion's bone. The lion gets out. A fairy, Betty with wings, saves the boy and makes him undo the damage, which the film does by running the scenes backward. Junior undoes his own mess the same way and hides under the covers. Betty shuts the door and winks.
