Synopsis[]
At a Pet Shop somewhere near Melton Mowbray, a man (John Cleese) enters to buy a cat, but the shopkeeper (Michael Palin) insists on selling him a terrier, even offering to physically alter it in order to look like a cat. The man changes his mind to wanting to buy a parrot, but the shopkeeper continues to insist on the terrier, offering to convert it into a parrot. Because the parrot conversion would not be finished by the time the man needs the parrot, the shopkeeper offers to convert it into a fish instead. The man accepts, on the condition that he can watch the conversion.
Two men (John Cleese, Eric Idle) comment on this being "predictable" and "done before," a Centurion (Terry Jones) adding that they did it for Caesar's Christmas show. Caesar (Graham Chapman) then corrects the Centurion, saying they did Jack and the Beanstalk.
