[instrumental music]
(male narrator)Out here in the west
begins a saga
of how a good little town
held out againsta big bad man
and won.
(Sheriff)
'Rowdy Dowdy'
'the most wanted outlaw'
'in these here parts.'
I reckon you is here
to give yourself up to society.
thwack
[laughing]
You are funny, sheriff.
That did it, Rowdy.
'I'm upping the reward on you'
'to $25,000.'
It's about time.
I'm no two-bit outlaw
anyhow.
[muffled]
'All this can be used
against you, you know.'
Yeah, well, let me use
this branding iron againstyou.
whomp
[laughing]
You've pushed me too far, Rowdy.
I'mma gonna call in
the onliest one
'who can handle yee.'
[tapping]
I'll send him a quick wire
on the telegraph.
Ooh!
Ouch! Ouch!
I just gotta get this
message through
to Atom Ant.
[beeping]
[instrumental music]
Nothing like keeping
physically fit.
Say, maybe I should shoot
for the heavyweight crown.
[beeping]
Uh-oh, a signal.
Uh, someone tearing up
a town out west.
Atom Ant
up andat 'em!
whoosh
Alright, Sheriff,
who did you telegraph?
A ant, Atom Ant.
The toughest ant in the world.
A ant?
You'refunny.
thud
You ought be on a stage.
Stagecoach, that is..
[laughing]
I just hope Atom Ant
get here in time.
whoosh
It is you, my old friend.
Atom Ant.
Howdy, sheriff,
what's the problem?
'It's Rowdy Dowdy.'
(Sheriff)
He's here to rip up the town.
(Atom Ant)
A routine case, Sheriff.
Leave him to me.
whoosh
You just sit down
and relax, Sheriff.
I'll be back in a flash.
Good luck, Atom,
Not that you need it.
(Rowdy)
'Hands up, folks!'
This here is a hold-up.
Well, I'll just hold up
this hold-up for a while.
Hey! Let go!
Wha-what's going on?
thud
Okay, who's the wise guy
tripping me?
- I did.
- Huh?
And I'm bringing you in.
[laughing]
A little bitty ant
bringing me in.
Look, you insect,
don't bug me.
thud
Sorry, Mr. Rowdy, uh
but you're gonna have
to come with me.
whomp
Now will you come
along peacefully
or do I have to get tough?
Reach, Ant, I got a point blank
be drawn on you.
I warn you, Rowdy,
do not resort to violence.
[gunshot]
[glass shattering]
You resorted.
No little ant is gonna
show me up.
I'll mash him into ant dust
with this boulder.
[thudding]
That Rowdy doesn't
catch on to quickly.
So long, pesky ant.
crash
[laughing]
That finishes him.
Say, he's kinda strong
for an ant.
crash
[blabbering angrily]
I'll get me something in here
to refresh me
so as I can match
that sneaky ant.
'Give me a glass of milk.'
Milk? But I thought
you were tough?
So put a buffalo horn in it.
Boy, that is tough.
'Here you are.'
[gulping]
Now, let me at that guy
I'll tear him apart.
Here that, boys.
'Rowdy is gonna fight someone.'
Oh, boy, a fight.
I wonder who Rowdy
is gonna bust up.
Rowdy gonna murder him.
Poor soul's done for
whoever he is.
Okay, Atom, come out and fight.
Where are you?
Here I am, Rowdy.
I hate to embarrass you,
why don't you give up?
Nothing to and I ain't.
I'm gonna bash you good.
clang
Uh!
You forced me to do this, Rowdy.
[thudding]
He's just fighting himself.
Yup, and losing.
'Strangest fight
I've ever seen.'
Hey, I can't swim.
splash
Okay, Rowdy, let's go.
I think you've had enough.
(Rowdy)
'Urgh!'
I got you now.
[thudding]
He's just whomping himself
all over.
(Rowdy)
'Stop! Hold it! Ouch!'
I give up.
Let me alone.
I'll come peacefully.
thud
That's better.
Yes, but maybe be in a nice,
safe ant-less jail.
You did a great job, Atom Ant.
The whole town is grateful.
It was nothing, Sheriff,
don't mention it.
Well, I gotta get going.
So long.
So long.
Uh, say, Sheriff
who was that little stranger?
That little stranger, gentleman
was none other than Atom Ant!
Golly.
Golly
