"When the Baby goes missing, Mr. Punch sets out to the rescue – unleashing mischief and mayhem all the way. Tangling with a crocodile, a policeman and the devil himself, Mr. Punch presents a travesty of manners in which the children (the audience) must keep the puppets from misbehaving and the Baby triumphs in the end."
