As he hops around, he enjoys munching on lettuce, carrots, and beans, completely forgetting the warning of his mother. However, things take a turn when Mr. McGregor spots Peter in his garden and begins to chase him. Peter's frantic escape is filled with excitement and close calls as he darts through the garden, trying to avoid capture. He faces various challenges, such as getting caught in a net and hiding in a watering can.
