Squirrel is the best sales squirrel in the business, but he is also chronically late. When he finds a shiny new elevator in the tree he needs to climb, he figures it won't hurt to take a ride rather than rumple his suit. Once Squirrel is inside, he finds himself on an unexpected adventure. Will Squirrel be late for his sales meeting? And who is the strangely enthusiastic mouse huddled in the corner? You'll just have to listen and find out. ENJOY!
