The Grinch invents a noise-weapon and the Cat in the Hat fights back with chaos and bangers.
The Cat in the Hat is all set for a lovely picnic, but the evil Grinch changes his plans by inventing a contraption that captures noise and makes it sound ferocious. The Cat has to save the world from the clutches of the Grinch and the only way to do it is to reach Grinch's soft spot.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This is the only time the Grinch and Cat in the Hat officially meet in Seuss's universe, and it happened because DePatie-Freleng needed a TV special fast.
The 'Mother' flashback sequence feels like it escaped from a very different, much darker animated film—fans theorize the animators were experimenting with something else entirely.
