One night while dreaming, Chester accidentally eats a $2 bill from the cash register. Since Chester doesn’t like being locked in the fancy structure, he allows the delighted Tucker to sleep there. Mario goes to Chinatown to find Chester a cage, and a shopkeeper named Sai Fong gives him an impressive one for almost nothing. Chester’s melodious chirping impresses customers like music teacher Mr. He tells them he comes from Connecticut, where he got stuck in a picnic basket and carried by train to New York City. The cricket, Chester, meets Tucker and Harry that night. Mama reluctantly agrees, as long as the cricket remains at the newsstand. He pulls the cricket from under a stack of paper, cleans it off and asks his parents if he can keep it as a pet. Mario is surprised one day by the sound of a cricket chirping. A mouse named Tucker and his best friend, a cat named Harry, live near the newsstand. Mario Bellini is a young boy who helps his parents, Mama and Papa Bellini, run their Grand Central Station newsstand.
