Plot
[edit]As the winter approaches, squirrels diligently gather nuts for survival, but a young squirrel seeks easy gains through gambling despite his father's cautionary warnings. As a result, he loses all their winter provisions in dice games. Desperate to cover his tracks, the young squirrel lies that he had been robbed, only to discover that his father was his opponent. Furious, the father attempts to discipline his son, but the young squirrel's flippant attitude shows that he has not learned his lesson.
