SUMMARY:Ten-frame comic strip. Krazy Kat cools a freshly baked apple pie on a windowsill by placing a fan on a table inside the kitchen. Ignatz walks by, sniffs the pie, and is immediately blown into a cactus by the breeze from the fan. Officer Pupp sees Ignatz walking from the cactus, makes a comment, and falls into the cactus himself. In the last frame Krazy Kat offers Ignatz, by then in jail, a piece of pie.
