Plot
The Zebra escapes from prison and hides behind a tree as Savaughn searches for him. Once the coast is clear, he makes a run for it. He soon reaches Howdy's farmhouse and covers his stripes with paint. Howdy comes out and, mistaking the Zebra for one of his horses, takes him for a run.

To the Zebra's dismay, he is now forced to pull a cart with Howdy riding in the back. They go over a puddle that washes off some of the paint, exposing the Zebra's stripes just as they pass by Savaughn's police car. Savaughn catches clear sight of the fugitive and pursues him.

Howdy is puzzled as to why the police is after him, since he isn't going over the speed limit. The Zebra, on the other hand, picks up speed by carrying the weight attached to his leg. Savaughn tells Howdy to stop the cart, distressing him somewhat. The Zebra manages to get the chain off his leg and throws the weight away. A nearby Vanilla and Puffy are hit, but misses Robo Star. But then it ricochets off Sturdy's shell and hits Robo Star.

Savaughn begins firing his gun. Howdy retaliates with his own gun. As Racer crosses the street, his one working leg is accidentally shot off. The Zebra, watching the gun fight, turns his head to see they are headed straight for a brick wall. Untying himself, he jumps over the wall while Howdy and the cart smash into it.

The Zebra tumbles down a hill and into the window of a glue factory. Savaughn stops his police car at the front entrance to see Racer crawling by, looking for help. The wheels from Howdy's cart roll toward them. Soon, Savaughn attaches the wheels to Racer's crutches using a glue bottle from the factory. The glue happens to be striped, indicating it was made from the Zebra.

Moral
"A zebra can't change its stripes."
