Plot[]
Pierre Bear runs a bowling ball factory in the great North. His bowling balls are made of wood. When Pierre mistakenly chops Woody's tree house, turning it into a bowling ball, Woody decides to still reside in it- whether Pierre wants him to or not- and goes about trying to outwit the bear. Pierre uses a water hose, air pump, deep freeze and even hocus-pocus to evict the tree's tenant, but all he gets are knotted bowler's fingers.
