A man whose dad must have mated with a stork is hitching by a busy road with a long piece of rope. Various critters and cars drive past him but nobody wants to stop to pick him up. Then an old banger politely ties his rope to his engine and next thing our chap had dived down an hole in the ground and remerges atop a presidential style motorcade that wouldn't have looked out of place in "Evita". Hopefully a reward for the driver who stopped? It's basic animation with quite a militaristically lively score that's worth a few minutes but I doubt I will ever recall it.
