In this story, Pat and Patachon have decided to pursue a career as variety stars. Inspired by Patachon’s great role model, William Tell, they try to curry favour with an act called ‘William Tell and son’. They are taken on board at the Open Air Variety Show, where they meet two young girls who quickly become their good friends and training partners. Together, they show their now-expanded act to the director of the Grand Varieté, but he only wants to hire the two girls. Crestfallen, Pat and Patachon go back to the outdoor variety show, from which they are eventually thrown out. However, it is not long before the two vagabonds are needed in the variety show after all.
