“Down the water”

Roddy is a pet rat who lives in a luxurious apartment in Kensington and has two hamsters, Gilbert and Sullivan, as butlers. One day, Sid, a dirty rat, appears on the scene and is expelled through the sink drain. Sid thinks he's hit the jackpot, but Roddy wants to get rid of him as quickly as possible. To do so, he tries to deceive him, saying that the toilet is actually a bathtub and trying to convince him to get into it. However, Sid is no fool and pushes Roddy into the toilet, then flushes the toilet. He passes through the sewers and arrives in the city of Ratópolis. There, he meets Rita, a rat who works on his boat. She is the only one who can help him return home.
