Felix the Cat paces impatiently nearby a beehive and strenuously contemplates. A swarm flies out of the hive and the bees compose an inscription "Work and Save!" Felix immediately sets off to the city and runs to the building of the Savings Bank with his passbook. He then takes a contented breath: "Good that the bees reminded me..." The commercial features a character inspired by the protagonist of the popular American cartoon, Felix the Cat. The film is an adapted and extended version of the commercial promoting money saving, entitled Felix the Cat Receives a Lesson (1927, production company Elekta Journal Prague).
