The Bide-a-wee Mouse Home sends two orphans over for a hike with Scoutmaster Jerry. Trouble is, the orphans, dressed as Indians, want to shoot arrows and tomahawk-chop everything in sight, and especially Tom, who quickly gets scalped and has the end of his tail chopped off. He captures Jerry; this, of course, means war, for which the tots paint dozens of badminton shuttlecocks as a fake army. They also paint a fierce face on the sleeping dog. Ultimately, they get Tom to leave a trail of gunpowder, which they light, destroying the garage. Tom signals a truce, and they all smoke a peace pipe, but the smoke comes out of Tom's ears instead of his mouth.

Reviews
CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
BA_Harrison After Quacker the duckling, Nibbles the baby mouse is my least favourite of Jerry's sidekicks. In Two Little Indians, Jerry, a scoutmaster, is put in charge of two orphan mice, both of whom resemble Nibbles in Red Indian costumes. I should, by all rights, hate this cartoon, but there is so much inventive violence (most of which is perpetrated against Tom, minding his own business for a change), that I can't help but enjoy it.As Jerry tries to control the little mice, with very little success, Tom gets an arrow in his butt, two in his nose, is scalped, has the end of his tail cut off, and gets hit with a frying pan (resulting in his nose being pushed inside his gun barrel). Jerry joins in with the fun, belting Tom over the head with a post box. Eventually, after being blown up with gunpowder, Tom has no choice but to smoke a peace pipe with the mice, but even this doesn't go right for the poor cat.
Tweekums This 'Tom and Jerry' short opens with two orphaned mice, dressed as Indians, turning up at 'Scout Master Jerry's' house. They appear to be a danger to themselves as one of them sets off to attack Spike the bulldog; no sooner than Jerry has resolved that situation the other is off attacking Tom. When Tom wakes he sees Jerry standing in front of him with a bow and arrow but it soon becomes apparent that he can't use it; the two little mice can though and are soon shooting arrows into the poor cat as well as attacking him with tomahawks. The conflict soon escalates as Tom gets a gun; it doesn't help him much though two young mice continue to get the better of him and ultimately he is forced to surrender.This was a fun 'Tom and Jerry' cartoon even though it isn't the usual Tom versus Jerry story; it is the two little orphan mice that provide most of the entertainment. There is the usual violence on expects with Tom getting shot with arrows, scalped with a tomahawk and getting smashed in the face with a frying pan. I enjoyed the story; the two little mice were a good addition and made a nice change from just having Tom and Jerry fighting. The gags are the sort one expects but they are still pretty funny.
TheLittleSongbird By all means this episode is not a favourite. It is fun, nice and worth watching but a classic? Personally I think not. The sight gags are funny, the animation is beautiful once again and the music is excellent. The two little orphans are bratty of course but somewhat cute and very mischievous. What didn't work as well was the pacing, a little rushed for my taste, and the plot from which this episode takes its basis from is not the most original one from the Tom and Jerry canon. Tom and Jerry however are still their likable selves, and the episode is in general fun to watch. Overall, good episode but not the best. 8/10 Bethany Cox
ccthemovieman-1 Scoutmaster Jerry is given the assignment of taking two orphans from the "Bide-a-wee- Mouse Home" on a hiking trip. Boy these orphans are brats.Poor Tom is the innocent victim, as he tends to be on occasion. He's just lying under a tree taking a snooze when these little wise-guys take potshots him. Jerry isn't pleased with that, either, trying to stop them, but no avail. Soon, the chase is on with Tom going against all the mice. He captures Jerry but the little orphans come to his rescue with some inventive, humorous methods.Another fun episode.
