A young boy, displaying remarkable skill with a lasso, manages to catch and tie up the moon, dragging it forcefully to Earth. His prank unleashes absolute panic among the forest animals and baffles the inhabitants of a nearby village. The king publicly declares that a child has stolen the satellite, but the boy decides to hide his great prize inside a leather sack to keep it safe.
