The world is full of war and where can we hope to escape it? Home? - Certainly not by a stretch of this little computer animation.

In a number of fancy manoeuvres the kidney bean tricks the bullying two into believing they’ve killed him. When the kidney bean reaches his kin a battle of revenge is planned.
