A cat named Tom, who dreams
of being a jazz pianist, moves to New York and busks in Central Park,
while a mouse named Jerry is in search of a new home. After Tom's piano is
destroyed in an altercation, he chases Jerry, but accidentally tackles a
young woman named Kayla Forester, causing her to lose her job. Down on her
luck, Kayla wants to prove her talents and looks for a position at the
city's fanciest hotel, the Royal Gate, where Jerry moves in and Tom fails
to break in. Kayla, with a stolen resume, is hired to help plan a
high-profile wedding and gets a tour of the hotel, while Jerry's usual
antics involve stealing food and items to ramp up his new home, and Tom
plans more strategies to enter the hotel and capture Jerry.
Local celebrities Preeta Mehta and her fiancé Ben are greeted, as they
arrive, along with their pet dog Spike and cat Toots. All, except for
Spike, are unaware of Jerry stealing from Preeta's handbag. As the couple
and their pets are escorted to their room, Jerry's presence is revealed,
which puts the wedding and the hotel at risk. Kayla offers to catch Jerry,
but fails and realizes that he will be hard to catch. After many failed
attempts, Tom successfully enters the hotel, and his ensuing chase after
Jerry wrecks a hotel room. Due to noise complaints, Kayla comes to check
and befriends Tom, due to their shared goal of catching Jerry. The hotel's
owner and general manager Mr. Dubros hires Tom to exterminate Jerry, while
Tom and Kayla's boss Terence threatens to fire them if Tom cannot catch
Jerry.
After more failed attempts, Tom designs an elaborate mouse trap that gets
Jerry out of the hotel. Meanwhile, Kayla helps with the wedding plans and
learns that Preeta's engagement ring is missing. Jerry returns, to clash
with Tom on the piano, and reveals to Kayla that he had Preeta's ring and
agrees to give it back to her in exchange for letting him live in the
hotel. Before Kayla can agree, Terence returns from walking Spike and
notices Tom looking for Jerry hiding in Kayla's coat pocket, creating a
scene that causes Spike, Tom, and Jerry's chase to destroy the lobby.
Terence is suspended, while Kayla is promoted to event manager, for
returning Preeta's ring. Kayla tells Tom and Jerry that they will have to
get along and spend the next day bonding if they want to stay in the
hotel, to which they reluctantly agree.
While Kayla takes care of the hotel and manages the wedding with the crew,
Tom and Jerry explore the city, but are imprisoned at a pound, after
inadvertently committing fan interference on a baseball game. A vengeful
Terence separately visits Tom and Jerry and feeds them lies about what
they said about each other behind their backs, inciting them to a battle
at the ceremony that throws the wedding into carnage and destroys the rest
of the hotel. After Kayla comes clean and leaves in disgrace, Terence
evicts Tom, and Preeta renounces the wedding. Realizing that it is their
fault, Tom and Jerry put their differences aside, and convince Kayla and
the hotel crew, including a skeptical Terence, to salvage the wedding. The
pair lure Preeta and Toots to Central Park, where the wedding is held.
Kayla promises to Preeta that Tom and Jerry have atoned for their
behaviour, and Ben apologizes to Preeta for his extensive expenses, in
light of impressing her father. Kayla and the stolen resume's owner
reconcile with each other and get jobs at the hotel, while Tom finally
becomes a jazz pianist and plays the piano for Toots, with Jerry joining
the party until a mishap causes them to fight again. In a post-credit
scene, Ben receives a bill for both weddings. |
