Pet Heir: Tom inherits a million dollars, but on the condition that he doesn't harm any living thing, "EVEN A MOUSE". Jerry, naturally, takes advantage of the situation.

No-Harm Requirement: Tom will inherit one million dollars as long as he doesn't harm any living creature. That includes a mouse like Jerry.

Literal Metaphor: The first thing Tom does when he finally has enough is tear the telegraph apart and grab the "not even a mouse" piece of it when Jerry scavenges it and rams it down Jerry's throat, literally making him eat his words.

comment
The Cat Came Back: No matter where Tom goes, Jerry is there to mooch off his wealth, the telegram in hand to remind him that he'll lose the money if he hurts him. Even after tricking Jerry into jumping off the penthouse window, Tom is wary of finding Jerry hiding in his breakfast, so he carefully lifts the cover over the dish. Finding no Jerry underneath, Tom takes the folded napkin to put around his neck... and finds Jerry hiding underneath it.

Worth It: At the end, Tom tells the audience that, even if he loses his fortune for getting even with Jerry, he's happy nonetheless.

Rage Breaking Point: Once Jerry eats Tom's breakfast and slaps Tom's dickey in his face, the cat loses his cool and attacks Jerry, even ignoring the fact that he will lose the million dollars he inherited.
