Plot
A spider is the friend of a young girl named Leslie (voiced by Thora Birch) who is taking piano lessons from a very strict Instructor (incidentally, she's learning to play the actual rhyme). When the Instructor is frightened by Itsy, she calls an Exterminator, that uses more and more extreme measures to try to kill Itsy, most of which end up causing pain and destruction to the Instructor's home, cat, and the Exterminator himself, which turns out to be a heavily-armed android (voiced by Phil Hayes). The Exterminator's methods begin to get even more extreme, escalating from poison and vacuums to guns and explosives, until the Instructor's house is eventually blown up. Itsy is finally reunited with the girl (who had the sense to get out of the house before the flamethrowers came out), and they go home.

Famous quotes containing the word plot:
“Those blessed structures, plot and rhyme—
why are they no help to me now
I want to make
something imagined, not recalled?”
—Robert Lowell (1917–1977)
“There comes a time in every man’s education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he must take himself for better for worse as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given him to till.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The plot was most interesting. It belonged to no particular age, people, or country, and was perhaps the more delightful on that account, as nobody’s previous information could afford the remotest glimmering of what would ever come of it.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
