Boot is burying a bone, trying in vain to keep it out of reach of other dogs. BH sees the "grave" where Boot has hidden his bone and digs it up intending on giving it the kiss of life. Boot, in response, buries BH in the hole. BH then makes many attempts to rest the bone from Boot, all which end unsuccessfully. Boot is left with feelings of remorse at not sharing his tasty bone. It is, he thinks, not the conduct of an English Gentleman, but on a happier note, is exactly what one expects of a dog.

At the seaside, all the children are enjoying the water but Boot decides to investigate some rock pools instead and finds some crabs. From the crabs prospective, what they see is "eye balls in the sky" a sight that disturbs some of them greatly. Are the eyes there or not the crabs wonder. They set up a telescope to view the world beyond the pool, which Boot recognises is made from old tin cans. He barks into the cans causing mass panic in the crab colony. Boots looks at the excitable creatures and thinks that its just as well the crabs didn't know anyone was watching.
