Episode Title:
Peter and the Wolf.
Episode Description:
Peter, a Young Soviet Pioneer, lives at his grandfather's home in a forest clearing. One day, Peter goes out into the clearing, leaving the garden gate open, and the duck that lives in the yard takes the opportunity to go swimming in a pond nearby. The duck and the bird argue on whether a proper bird should be able to swim or fly. Peter's pet cat stalks them quietly, and the bird—warned by Peter—flies to safety in a tall tree while the duck swims to safety in the middle of the pond. Before long Peter's grandfather scolds him for being outside in the meadow alone because of the possibility that a wolf could come out of the forest and attack him, and when Peter shows defiance believing he has nothing to fear from wolves, his grandfather takes him back into the house and locks the gate. Soon afterwards a ferocious wolf does indeed come out of the forest. The cat quickly climbs into the tree with the bird, but the duck, who has jumped out of the pond, is chased, overtaken, and swallowed by the wolf.
