Synopsis
John's next-door neighbor tries to help him become more assertive against his wife Jane and tell her that he won't do any more housework. John does everything that he suggests, but it all ends in failure. Eventually, the neighbor gives up. John, still determined, however, decides to see how his neighbor handles his wife. He sneaks over and peeks in the window, only to discover that HIS wife is controlling as well, and that his neighbor is just a big wimp and doesn't even follow the advice he has been giving to John. John eventually gets courage after witnessing that and demands to Jane that he's the boss of the house. Jane walks to the house next door, slaps the neighbor in the nose, and goes back to "take care" of John.

John Doormat "Dustcap Doormat"
eerily surreal, this cartoon was deep in meaning yet abstract in feel. As a 4 year old, this was one of my all-time favorites.
